Extension permissions

Routes Chrome's traffic through the Hushgate server you choose, and restores your normal connection when you disconnect.

Answers the sign-in challenge from our own proxy server with your short-lived session credentials. Hushgate ignores challenges from any other server.

Powers the kill switch: if the tunnel drops, it blocks Chrome from loading pages until protection is back.

Turns on WebRTC leak protection while you are connected so web apps cannot discover your real IP address.

Adds a small script to pages only while location matching is on, so sites that ask for your location see your server's city.

Saves your settings and your current sign-in on your device.

Checks the connection every minute, renews your session before it expires and ends a pause on time.

Tells you when protection drops, recovers or needs you to sign in again. You can turn these off in Settings.

Required for the proxy and kill switch to apply to every website. Hushgate does not read page content or browsing history.
