LLM Export Privacy Policy
Last updated: 21 September 2026
LLM Export is a browser extension. It turns the AI chat you are looking at into a Markdown file and a JSON file, saved to your own computer.
Nothing is collected, and nothing is transmitted. LLM Export has no server, makes no network requests of any kind, and contains no analytics, tracking or advertising. The developer cannot see your conversations, your exports, or that you used the extension at all, because none of it is ever sent anywhere.
What it reads, and when
When you click the extension's toolbar button, or choose Export this chat from the right-click menu, it reads the conversation displayed on that page — the messages, and any thinking or tool blocks the page contains — and writes them to a file.
It can only do this at the moment you click. The extension requests no host permissions. It has no standing access to any website, and it cannot read pages in the background, on other tabs, or when you are not using it. Chrome grants it access to the one page you invoked it on, for that action only.
Where the file goes
Into your own Downloads folder, in a subfolder called
llm-export. That file is created on your computer and stays
there. It is not uploaded, not copied, and not shared with anyone.
The export contains your conversation. That is the point of it — but it means the file is as private as the chat was. If you send it to someone, you are sending them the whole conversation. Treat it the way you would treat any document containing what you wrote.
What it stores
Only your own preferences: which file types to save, whether to open thinking and tool blocks, whether to prompt for a file name, and whether developer mode is on. These are kept locally in the browser so they persist between uses. They are not synced and not transmitted.
A summary of your most recent export — how many messages it found and what the files were called — is held in the browser's session storage so the popup can show you the result. It is discarded when you close the browser.
Page captures
The extension has an optional developer mode, off by default, which adds a Capture this page button. It saves the structure of an unsupported chat site so support for that site can be added.
A capture is written to your Downloads folder like any other export, and is sent nowhere. It contains the entire conversation on the page. If you choose to attach one to a public bug report, everyone who can see that report can read it. The extension warns you about this, and the safest capture is a throwaway chat made for the purpose.
Permissions, and why each exists
- activeTab — read the conversation on the page you are on, at the moment you click.
- scripting — run the code that reads it. With no host permissions, this is the only way in.
- downloads — write the exported file to your Downloads folder.
- storage — remember your own options between uses.
- contextMenus — add the right-click menu item.
Third parties
There are none. No servers, no SDKs, no remote code. Every line the extension runs ships inside it, and the source is public at github.com/QueenRose4444/llm-export if you would rather read it than take this page's word for it.
Children
LLM Export is not directed at children and collects no data from anyone, regardless of age.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it, and a material change will be noted in the extension's release notes.
