Sign In
Sign-in is optional. If you sign in, LoopGuard can sync anonymized session metrics to your account dashboard.
Privacy
LoopGuard processes diagnostics and context locally in the extension. When sync is enabled, only anonymized session metrics are sent to the backend. Source code and file contents are not uploaded.
