Privacy Policy — Netrunner Card Identifier

Last updated: 2026-07-02

This Chrome extension (“the Extension”) does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. There is no account, no telemetry, no analytics.

What the Extension does on your device

• Card recognition runs locally. When you Alt+drag a region in a video, the cropped pixels are passed to a bundled ONNX model running on your own CPU via WebAssembly. The image data never leaves your browser.
• The card catalog is bundled in the extension package (titles, types, and image URLs), not fetched or cached from any remote server at runtime.

Network requests the Extension makes

The Extension makes outbound HTTP requests only to:

1. NetrunnerDB image CDN (https://card-images.netrunnerdb.com/) — to display the matched card image in the overlay. Triggered by your own identification action.

This is the only external service contacted at runtime. The bundled embedder model and card catalog are included in the extension package and not fetched from any remote server.

Permissions

Permission	Why it’s needed
alarms	Schedule a periodic idle check that closes the offscreen document to free memory after inference.
offscreen	Run the ML model in an extension-origin document so the WebAssembly runtime can spawn Workers.
host_permissions for card-images.netrunnerdb.com	Load the matched card’s art for the overlay.
Content scripts on <all_urls>	Required to offer Alt+drag identification on any page where a Netrunner stream might be playing. The content scripts do not transmit page data anywhere.

Third-party data

No third-party SDKs, no third-party analytics, no third-party ad networks. The bundled ML model is the open-source Milo embedder. Card data is provided by NetrunnerDB, which has its own privacy practices.

Changes

This policy may be updated alongside extension releases. Material changes will be called out in the changelog. The latest version is always at github.com/Guymontagz/netrunner-card-identifier.
