Bookee Permissions

Here's a quick breakdown of the permissions required for Bookee:

• activeTab
  (details are forthcoming)
   
• bookmarks
  Allows the extension to access the bookmarks saved in your browser. This is core to Bookee, and gives it permission to read, edit and delete them.
   
• notifications
  Allows the extension to notify you, via native browser notifications, of certain events. For example, when you add a collection, remove a collection, or have a folder shared with you, notifications will let you know.
   
• scripting
  (details are forthcoming)
   
• storage
  In order to make Bookee smarter over time (for example, having it suggest links as you search that you click on more frequently), Bookee needs to store data on your computer. This data is not sent to any server, and only exists on your computer.
   
• tabs
  In order for Bookee to have a great User Experience, it attempts to only load bookmarks that aren't already open in a tab. In order to see which tabs are open, Bookee needs the tabs permission.
   
• topSites
  The topSites permission allows Bookee to suggest links that might not be in your browser bookmarks, but are sites you often go to. This makes Bookee more useful, since otherwise you would have to bookmark webpages that are part of your regular routine.
   
• host_permissions.<all_urls>
  Bookee works by embedding an iframe on all the tabs in your browser. It does this, so that when you open it open, it's instantly available and ready to use. This means that it needs access to all the URLs as you use your browser.
