🛡️ Privacy Policy — EVE-NG → SecureCRT (No-Popup)
Effective Date: 10/10/2025]
Publisher: Saad Hanif
1. Overview
EVE-NG → SecureCRT (No-Popup) is a Chrome extension designed to help network engineers seamlessly open SecureCRT sessions from the EVE-NG web interface.
It uses Chrome’s official Native Messaging API to communicate securely with a local helper application (launcher.exe) on the same computer.
This Privacy Policy explains what data (if any) is collected, how it is used, and how your privacy is protected.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
This extension does not collect, transmit, store, or share any personal data, browsing history, credentials, or usage analytics.
All functionality happens locally on your computer.
Specifically:
-
❌ No usernames, passwords, or IP addresses are sent to any external server.
-
❌ No connection logs, Telnet/SSH credentials, or SecureCRT session data are ever transmitted.
-
❌ No advertising, tracking, or analytics scripts are included.
3. Information Processed Locally
The extension performs limited, local operations to provide its functionality:
-
It detects
telnet://andssh://links only within EVE-NG pages. -
It saves user-configured EVE-NG URL patterns (e.g.
http://192.168.23.60/*) in Chrome storage — which remains fully local to your browser profile. -
When a user clicks a link, it sends a simple message (e.g.
{"url":"telnet://192.168.23.60:32770"}) to the local SecureCRT launcher, using Chrome’s secure Native Messaging channel.
At no point does this data leave your local system.
4. Local Native Host
The companion app (launcher.exe) is a small, open-source program that executes the SecureCRT command line locally.
It does not collect or transmit any information over the Internet.
All communications between Chrome and the native host occur through Chrome’s Native Messaging protocol and are restricted to the same user account.
5. Permissions Used
| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripting | Injects a small content script into EVE-NG pages to detect Telnet/SSH links. |
storage | Stores user-defined EVE-NG origins locally (no remote sync). |
nativeMessaging | Launches SecureCRT locally through the native host bridge. |
host_permissions | Grants access only to user-defined EVE-NG URLs. |
These permissions are the minimum required for the extension to function properly.
6. Data Sharing and Third Parties
The extension does not share any data with third-party services, APIs, analytics providers, or advertisers.
All communication remains entirely offline and within your system.
7. Security
The extension uses Chrome’s built-in sandbox and permission model.
It cannot access files, system resources, or other network sites beyond what the user explicitly grants.
8. Updates
Any future updates will continue to follow this privacy policy.
If significant changes occur, this page will be updated and the new policy will be reflected in the Chrome Web Store listing.
