Data Flow

  1. Browser → Extension: Content scripts read page metadata (URL, title, section) from supported sites. No credentials, cookies, or page content is collected.
  2. Extension → Native Host: A presence object (details, state, image keys) is sent via chrome.runtime.sendMessage to the service worker, then forwarded over native messaging (stdin/stdout) to host.exe.
  3. Native Host → Discord: The host process connects to Discord's local IPC socket and calls setActivity() with the presence data. This never leaves your machine.
  4. No external servers: No data is sent to any third-party server. The extension communicates exclusively with a local process, which communicates exclusively with the local Discord client.

What Data Is Transmitted

  • Site name and section (e.g., "Cancer Cup (CM15) | uma.guide")
  • A timestamp for "started at"
  • Image keys for Discord Rich Presence assets

What Data Is NOT Collected

  • Page content, text, images, or media
  • Form data, credentials, or cookies
  • Personal identifiers beyond your Discord user ID (received from Discord's RPC, not sent by the extension)
  • Browsing history (presence is sent only while actively visiting a supported site)

Native Host

The native messaging host (host.exe or host.js) runs as a local process on your machine. It does not expose any network ports, does not accept remote connections, and has no persistent storage beyond the native messaging manifest.
