Sifted Browser Assistant is a commercial browser extension developed by Sifted Network.

The extension uses the cookies permission only to determine whether the user is currently signed in to supported websites.

Cookie values are processed locally only for login-status detection. The extension does not collect, store, transmit, or disclose authentication cookie values to Sifted Network, OpenAI, Anthropic, or any other third party.

The extension does not automatically scrape or collect website content for this login-status feature.

For testing the login-status functionality, reviewers can open a supported website (such as LinkedIn), sign in, open the extension, and use the "Check Account" functionality.
