Privacy Policy
TL;DR — We collect nothing.
Monday.com Inspector runs entirely inside your browser. Your API token, your board data, and your files never leave your device or pass through any server we control.
What is Monday.com Inspector?
Monday.com Inspector is a free, open-source Chrome extension that adds an inline power panel to monday.com board pages. It provides:
- Bulk import of parent items and subitems from CSV or Excel files
- Bulk update of items and subitems across boards
- GraphQL query editor with complexity tracking
- Board schema inspector and column explorer
- Data export to CSV and JSON
Data We Access
We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers.
The extension operates entirely within your browser. Here is exactly what it accesses and why:
Monday.com API Token
Stored locally in your browser using chrome.storage.local. It is sent only to the monday.com API (https://api.monday.com/v2) to perform the actions you initiate. It is never sent to any other destination.
Uploaded Files (CSV / Excel)
Parsed entirely in your browser's memory using JavaScript. File contents are never uploaded to any server — not ours, not anyone else's.
Board Data (Items, Columns, Subitems)
Fetched from the monday.com API on demand when you open a board. This data is held in memory while the panel is open and is not persisted or transmitted beyond the monday.com API calls you explicitly trigger.
Import Progress & Usage Counter
A snapshot of your last import's progress and a simple numeric counter of completed imports are stored locally in your browser. They are used only to restore your progress after a reload and to display helpful prompts (such as an occasional review reminder). Neither value ever leaves your device.
Data We Do NOT Collect
- ✕ No personal information (name, email, address)
- ✕ No analytics, telemetry, or crash reporting
- ✕ No advertising or tracking cookies
- ✕ No browsing history
- ✕ No data shared with third parties
- ✕ No remote logging or monitoring
Third-Party Services
The extension communicates exclusively with:
- monday.com API —
https://api.monday.com/v2— using the API token you provide, to read and write your board data.
No analytics platforms, advertising networks, or other third-party services are used.
Chrome Permissions
The extension requests these Chrome permissions and uses them only as described:
storage
To save your API token, import-progress snapshot, and usage preferences locally in your browser.
activeTab
To detect the currently active monday.com tab when you click the extension icon, so the popup can open the Import Panel for that board.
host_permissions
https://*.monday.com/*
To inject the Inspector panel into monday.com board pages and to communicate with the monday.com API on your behalf.
Data Retention & Deletion
All data is stored locally in your browser via chrome.storage.local. You can delete all stored data at any time by:
- Removing the extension from Chrome (all local storage is deleted automatically)
- Going to chrome://extensions → Monday.com Inspector → Details → Clear Data
Open Source
Monday.com Inspector is fully open source. You can review the complete source code to verify these privacy claims at: github.com/sametivon/monday.inspector
Changes to This Policy
If we update this privacy policy, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
