### 🔒 Privacy & Security

*   **Your Data, Your Control**: The extension only requests `identity` (to connect to Google) and `spreadsheets` permissions.
*   **No Central Server**: Your spreadsheet data never passes through our servers; it travels directly from the LinkedIn page to your Google Drive.
*   **OAuth2 Protection**: Uses Google’s official authentication protocol to ensure your account remains secure.
