PRIVACY & SECURITY

Autofill does not track your browsing history in any way, nor does it transmit any data over the internet. All data remains on your local hard disk drive at all times. However, the data saved by this extension is NOT encrypted, so any data you save remains in the clear, although it will remain on your hard drive and only someone who knows where to look and has physical access to your hard drive would be able to access it. Your activities are also not monitored by Google Analytics or equivalent tracking tags.

PERMISSIONS

The following permissions are required by this extension:

◼ host (http://*/*, https://*/*, file://*/*) — allow Autofill's content script to operate on all non-secure pages, secure pages, and local files. Technically, Autofill has to be able to read data (to detect form fields) and change data (to fill out the form for you) on the web pages that you visit. Note that Autofill does not and will never track your browsing history, nor does it transmit any data back to a remote server. Your data remains on your local hard drive at all times.
◼ contextMenus — add Autofill to the right-click context menu.
◼ storage — store rules and settings on your hard drive.
◼ unlimitedStorage — allow unlimited storage. Without this permission you would only be able to store 5 MB of data.

This extension has been a game changer! Filling out abuse report forms for registrars and hosts can be super tedious. I have created dozens of custom form-fills across a wide variety of providers. Using hot-swappable variables has greatly improved my efficiency. I am hosting a Github repo that can be shared and implemented by a number of my peers (SOC analysts).

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS extension. Why? Because the developer FORCES you to buy this. When it was free - it was one of the best out there to simplify my work, now you CANNOT USE IT UNTIL YOU BUY IT FOR 5 DOLLARS A MONTH! Apparently, the developer is too stupid to not undermine his reputation,reputation of his app and make it less mandatory (make a slight notification that the donation would be appreciated, create a patreon account - as any other normal dev would do). Instead, you just cut off functionality all together and I will simply find another autofiller, which is free. Do not recommend.
