This policy explains how the PracticeStacks LinkedIn Lead Capture Chrome extension collects, uses, and protects your data.
Last updated: March 8, 2026
Data We Collect
When you use the PracticeStacks LinkedIn Lead Capture extension on a LinkedIn profile page, the extension extracts the following publicly visible profile information:
Name and professional headline
Current company and job title
Location (city, country)
Email address (if publicly listed on the profile)
Phone number (if publicly listed on the profile)
Website URL (if publicly listed on the profile)
About/summary section text
LinkedIn profile URL
This data is only extracted when you actively open the extension popup while viewing a LinkedIn profile. No background or automatic scraping occurs.
How We Use Your Data
The extracted LinkedIn profile data is used solely to create a lead entry in your own PracticeStacks CRM account. Specifically:
Profile data is displayed in the extension popup for your review and editing before saving.
When you click 'Add as Lead', the data is sent to the PracticeStacks API and stored in your CRM account.
Your authenticated session token is stored locally in Chrome storage so you don't need to re-login each time.
No data is collected, stored, or transmitted unless you explicitly initiate the action.
Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell, trade, rent, or transfer your data or the scraped LinkedIn profile data to any third parties. Your lead data is stored exclusively in your own PracticeStacks CRM account.
No data is shared with advertisers or analytics providers.
No data is used for profiling, creditworthiness assessment, or lending purposes.
The extension communicates only with practicestacks.in (our platform) and linkedin.com (to read profile data).
Website enrichment requests (to find contact details from linked websites) are made directly from the extension and no data is routed through third-party servers.
Permissions Explained
The extension requests the following Chrome permissions, each for a specific purpose:
storage — Saves your login session locally so you stay signed in.
activeTab — Checks if you're on a LinkedIn profile page before extracting data.
scripting — Reads profile data from the LinkedIn page you're viewing and checks your PracticeStacks session.
cookies — Reads your PracticeStacks session cookie to authenticate API requests.
Host access to linkedin.com — Required to extract profile data from the page.
Host access to practicestacks.in — Required to save leads and verify your login session.
Data Retention & Deletion
You have full control over your data at all times:
Scraped profile data is held temporarily in memory only during your active session. It is not persisted locally.
Your session token is stored in Chrome local storage and is cleared when you click 'Logout' or uninstall the extension.
Lead data saved to PracticeStacks CRM can be edited or deleted at any time from your dashboard.
Uninstalling the extension removes all locally stored data automatically.
