Look again, we have a privacy policy since day one. It's contained in
the extension 'about' box as well.

Privacy:

The extension transmits the IP address of the server of every website visited. No cookies 
are set or read from the ASNumber server and no per-user or browser tracking or logging is 
done. Only aggregated statistics on the popularity of the the looked up AS Numbers are 
computed. No information is made available to third parties.
