The FOEhelp browser extension is designed exclusively for Forge of Empires
players and operates only on pages of this game.
The extension does not collect or transmit any personal user data by
default. All core features (city planning, calculators, statistics, guild
raid ranking display) run entirely locally in your browser.
Local storage (browser.storage.local):
- Extension settings (which buttons/panels are shown, enabled features)
- Telegram bot token and Discord webhook URL — stored only on your device,
entered by you, and used solely to send messages to your own Telegram
bot or Discord server
The extension requests access to forgeofempires.com pages exclusively to:
- Add buttons and panels to the FoE Helper interface
- Read in-game data that the game itself already loads (guild rankings,
production/building statistics) in order to display it in extension
windows
- Inject modal windows for planners, calculators, and statistics
The extension does not read private account credentials, payment data, or
any information outside of Forge of Empires in-game data.
This only happens if you explicitly enable and configure the relevant
optional feature — nothing is sent anywhere by default.
- Telegram / Discord (optional — personal communications data
category): if you configure chat/notification forwarding with your own
bot token or webhook URL, the extension sends the relevant in-game
messages only to your own Telegram bot or Discord server, at the
address you provided. We do not have access to this data ourselves.
