To detect and close popup windows. Essential for core functionality.

To save your preferences and remember blocked domains locally on your device.

Access to All Websites

Popups can come from any domain. We need to monitor all sites to protect you everywhere you browse.

Important: These permissions allow Close Popup to function, but we do not use them to collect or transmit your data.

Access: View your stored preferences in the extension settings

Delete: Clear your data by:

  • Disabling the extension
  • Clearing the extension’s storage
