Privacy Policy and Technical Transparency
We take your security seriously. Show Password is a local utility that does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data, passwords, or browsing history to any external servers or third parties. It operates strictly locally within your browser by temporarily modifying the HTML "input type" attribute from "password" to "text" in your local session to reveal the characters. Your data remains entirely on your machine, and the extension does not track your browsing history, interact with remote servers, or access any sensitive information. By installing this extension, you acknowledge that you are responsible for using it in a secure environment and agree to these terms; if you do not agree with this policy, you must uninstall the extension immediately.
