Privacy Policy for Synergy - Web to Figma

Last Updated: January 2025

Overview

Synergy - Web to Figma ("Synergy", "the Plugin", "the Extension") is a unified Figma plugin and Chrome extension that allows users to import web pages into Figma and manage design styles. This privacy policy explains how Synergy handles user data.

Data Collection and Usage

Figma Plugin

The Figma Plugin processes files locally within the Figma application:

File Processing: When you import files (.figh, .json, HTML, CSS), the plugin processes them locally in your Figma session
Design Analysis: The plugin analyzes your Figma designs to create variables, styles, and identify components
No External Transmission: All processing happens within Figma. No data is sent to external servers

Chrome Extension

The Chrome Extension accesses the following data from web pages you visit:

Page Content: HTML structure, CSS styles, text content, images, and layout information
Screenshots: Full-page screenshots (only when you explicitly enable the "Include reference screenshot" option)
Page Metadata: URL, page title, viewport dimensions

How Data is Used

Local Processing Only: All data processing happens entirely on your device. The Extension analyzes page content locally in your browser, and the Plugin processes files within Figma
File Export: The Extension creates a .figh file containing page structure and styles, which is downloaded to your computer
Figma Integration: Imported files are processed and converted into Figma layers within your Figma workspace
Screenshots: Screenshots are only captured when you enable the option and are included in exported files for reference purposes

What Data is NOT Collected

❌ No data is sent to external servers
❌ No data is stored on remote servers
❌ No user tracking or analytics
❌ No browsing history collection
❌ No personal information collection
❌ No advertising or marketing data
❌ No Figma file content is transmitted externally

Permissions Explained

Figma Plugin Permissions

currentuser: Required to access your Figma user information for plugin functionality

Chrome Extension Permissions

The Extension requires the following permissions:

activeTab: To access the current page's content for analysis
scripting: To inject a content script that analyzes the page structure
windows: To resize the browser window for accurate viewport capture
debugger: To capture full-page screenshots using Chrome DevTools Protocol (only used when you enable the screenshot option)

Data Storage

Local Files: Exported .figh files are saved to your computer's default download location

No Cloud Storage: Synergy does not store any data in cloud storage
No Browser Storage: The Extension does not use Chrome's storage APIs to store user data

Security

All processing happens locally in your browser (Extension) or within Figma (Plugin)
No network requests are made except for loading images from the page itself (for export purposes)
