X2PIC Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 23, 2026

X2PIC is a Chrome browser extension that lets you capture screenshots of individual posts on X.com (formerly Twitter).

TL;DR

X2PIC does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. All screenshots are created and remain on your own device. The extension never contacts any server controlled by the developer.

Data the extension handles

When you click the X2PIC toolbar icon and then pick a post:

  1. The extension captures the visible portion of the current X.com / twitter.com tab and stitches together a PNG image of the chosen post.
  2. The resulting image is shown to you in a dialog on the same page.
  3. You may Download the image to your local disk or Copy it to your system clipboard. Both operations are local to your device.

The image is held in memory only for as long as the result dialog is open and is discarded when you close it.

What the extension does NOT do

  • It does not upload, send, or transmit any image, URL, post content, account information, or browsing data to the developer or any third party.
  • It does not include any analytics, telemetry, advertising, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting.
  • It does not use cookies or any remote storage.
  • It does not read or store the content of any web page outside of the single screenshot you explicitly capture.
