Pluto Ad Muter runs on Pluto TV pages. It reads the current page address, title, and player state, including ad timing, playback time, mute state, and the controls for advancing an episode. It uses that information to display an intermission, temporarily mute and cover the ad video, restore the previous mute setting, and advance supported episodes before the final break.

The extension processes this information in the browser during playback. It does not keep a viewing history or send viewer information to the developer or an analytics service. It does not sell user data or use it for advertising, credit decisions, or lending.

To display available artwork, the extension may request the public Pluto TV series page and load its poster from Pluto TV or CBS image hosts over HTTPS. The catalog request omits credentials, and poster requests omit the page referrer. Those services may receive standard network information, such as the connecting IP address, when they serve the request.

If you enable desktop alerts, the extension passes the show title and remaining break time to its own background worker in Chrome to display a notification. Chrome manages that permission. You can disable alerts from the extension popup or remove the extension in Chrome.
