Privacy Policy for Coucou

Last updated: 8 October 2026

Coucou is a Chrome extension that records a browser tab together with your microphone and, if you want, your camera. This page explains what the extension does with that data. The short version: everything stays on your computer.

What the extension processes

• The picture of the tab you record and, if you turn it on, the tab's sound.
• The sound of your microphone.
• The picture of your camera, if the camera bubble is on.
• Your settings: chosen camera and microphone, quality, bubble size and position.

The extension only does this while you record, in the tab where you started the recording. The camera picture in the popup and on the welcome page is a preview and is not stored.

Where it is processed

On your device, inside Chrome. The video is encoded on your computer and kept in the extension's private storage in your browser until you delete it. When you save a recording, it is written to the place on your computer that you choose.

What we don't do

• We don't send any data to ourselves or to anyone else. The extension has no server.
• No analytics, no tracking, no advertising, no account.
• We don't sell or share data, and we don't use it for anything other than making your recordings.

Permissions

• Tab capture: to record the tab in which you start a recording.
• Camera and microphone: for the camera bubble and your voice. Chrome asks you before the first use.
• Active tab and scripting: to show the camera bubble in the tab you record, after you click the icon or use the keyboard shortcut.
• Offscreen document: to run the recorder in the background while you keep working in the tab.
• Storage: to keep your settings and your recordings on your device.

Deleting your data

You can delete recordings at any time on the extension's Recordings page. Removing the extension from Chrome deletes all recordings and settings it stored. Videos you saved to your computer stay there until you delete them yourself.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
