What we access
Calendar Call Alert requests the calendar.readonly OAuth scope. This allows the extension to read events from your primary Google Calendar — specifically, each event's title, start time, end time, conference data, location, description, and Google Calendar event link. The extension scans those fields locally to find Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams invite URLs. No other data is read.
The extension does not access Gmail, Google Drive, Google Contacts, secondary calendars, or any other Google service.
What we do with it
We use the calendar data exclusively to compute when to schedule a local browser alarm. The alarm fires 60 seconds before a video meeting starts (Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams). All computation occurs inside your browser using Chrome's built-in alarms API. The meeting title and platform are displayed in the Chrome notification and, while the ring is playing, in the extension's floating alert popup window. Join opens the invite URL from your calendar event in a new browser tab — the extension does not connect to Zoom, Microsoft, or Meet servers directly.
No calendar data is sent to any external server. The only network requests made by the extension are directly to Google's own Calendar API on your behalf, to fetch your upcoming events.
