Extension Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026
What the extension does
The EssenseAI Analytics extension reads the engagement numbers (impressions, reactions, comments, shares) shown on your own LinkedIn posts, and sends them to your EssenseAI account so your dashboard can show how your posts performed. It is read-only: it never clicks, posts, messages, connects, or navigates on your behalf.
What it reads, and when
- Only your own posts. It reads metrics that LinkedIn already displays to you on your own posts and their analytics view.
- Only when you view them. The extension reads what is already on screen when you open your own LinkedIn posts. It does not navigate anywhere on its own.
- Nothing about other people. It does not read other members’ posts, profiles, or data.
What it stores
The extension stores a single connection token in your browser’s local extension storage, so it knows which EssenseAI account to send your metrics to. It does not store your LinkedIn password or cookies, and it does not request permission to read your network traffic.
Where your data goes
The metrics it reads are sent over HTTPS to EssenseAI and attached to your account’s posts. Their handling is governed by our main Privacy Policy.
Permissions
The extension requests only the minimum permissions it needs: local
storage (for the connection token) and access to linkedin.com pages (to read your own post metrics). It does not request access to cookies, network requests, or other sites.How to disconnect
You can disconnect at any time in EssenseAI → Settings → Analytics, which revokes the connection token, or by removing the extension from your browser. After that, the extension sends nothing.
