What Page Shield does

Page Shield is a Chrome extension that blocks unwanted redirects, auto-opened tabs, and intrusive ads in your browser.

What Page Shield accesses

Page Shield uses browser permissions to inspect page behavior that may trigger redirects or popup tabs, apply rules that block known ad network requests, and store settings, activity history, allow-lists, temporary exceptions, and custom blocked element selectors.

Data collection

Page Shield does not sell personal data. The current version does not transmit browsing history, page contents, account information, financial information, health information, authentication credentials, or personal communications to a remote server. It does not include analytics, advertising SDKs, remote code execution, or third-party tracking scripts.

Data storage

• Extension settings and protection toggles
• Trusted sites and allowed links
• Temporary site pauses and link allowances
• Recent activity counts and blocked-event summaries
• Custom selectors learned from the right-click missed-ad action

Permissions rationale

• storage: saves settings, exceptions, and activity state
• tabs: closes or reopens blocked tabs
• webNavigation: detects tab creation and client-side redirects
• declarativeNetRequest: blocks known ad network requests
• contextMenus: lets users save a site-scoped missed-ad rule
• sidePanel: displays the Page Shield control center beside the page
• <all_urls>: allows protection on pages where intrusive behavior occurs
