Privacy

Mouse Mover is a Chrome extension that keeps your screen awake and your status active in web chat apps while you step away. It works entirely in your browser.

What Mouse Mover does not do

• It does not collect, sell or share personal data.
• It has no analytics, tracking, ads or remote code. Its only network request comes right after install: it checks that mousemover.online is reachable and opens the welcome page there.
• It does not save or send the content of the pages you visit.
• It never clicks or types text for you; the only key it sends is F15, in chat tabs.

What it keeps in your browser

Mouse Mover keeps a few values with Chrome’s storage so it can work:

• whether it is on or paused, and since when;
• your settings: cursor movement, start time, how to get your cursor back and the theme. If Chrome sync is on, Chrome syncs these settings across your devices with your Google account;
• the time of your last input in Chrome and which tab was focused last — only until Chrome closes;
• whether your system asks for less motion, and how many times the panel offered to set a keyboard shortcut.

Removing the extension deletes them.

What it does on pages

To keep chats showing you as active, Mouse Mover sends synthetic pointer movements and an F15 key press to the chat tabs it recognises: Teams, Slack, Zoom, Webex, RingCentral, Zoho Cliq, Discord and Google Chat, also inside Gmail. In any tab it may draw a cursor; outside chats and mail it may also scroll a little. To draw the right cursor shape, it looks only at what is under the pointer, on your device, without saving or sending anything.

Permissions

• power — keeps the display awake while Mouse Mover is on.
• storage — keeps the state and settings above.
• scripting — starts Mouse Mover in tabs that were already open when you installed it.
• alarms — a once-a-minute check that keeps the screen awake and the toolbar icon right.
• Access to all sites — draws the cursor and sends the activity signals in your tabs. It does not collect page content.

This website

mousemover.online is a static site on a server we run. It sets no cookies, has no analytics or forms, and keeps no access logs. The welcome page address carries the extension’s ID, whether it is pinned to the toolbar and its keyboard shortcut, only so the page can show the right steps.

Changes and contact

If anything here changes, we will update this page and the date above. Questions: support@mousemover.online.
