# Handsfree Browser: Permissions

Before you can get started you'll need to allow the extension access to the webcam. Here are some things to know:

- This permission is exclusive to this Browser Extension
- The webcam is sandboxed. It cannot be accessed by other sites or extensions, even while it's running
- Websites that make use of webcams will still require you to approve permissions
- Computer vision happens entirely within this Extension, no data enters or leaves this extension
- No analytics, data, or usage stats of any kind is ever collected
- This project is fully documented and open sourced: https://github.com/midiblocks/handsfree-browser
