Free Telegram Web Translator

This page explains what the extension does, what data it handles, and how that data is used when translating visible messages in Telegram Web.

Effective date: June 14, 2026 Browser extension for Chromium-based browsers

What the extension does

Free Telegram Web Translator translates visible message text on web.telegram.org into the target language selected by the user. It shows the translation below the original message inside the current chat.

Data the extension handles

The extension may access visible message text from the active Telegram Web chat when the user runs translation or enables auto-translate.

  • Visible Telegram Web message text in the current chat
  • The selected target language
  • The auto-translate preference

How the data is used

Visible message text is sent to a translation endpoint in order to return translated text to the user. The extension uses that result only to display the translation inside Telegram Web.

Third-party services

The current version sends translation requests to Google Translate's web endpoint at https://translate.googleapis.com/.

The extension itself does not sell user data and is not designed to use message content for advertising, profiling, or unrelated tracking.

Storage and retention

The extension stores only basic settings through the browser's extension storage, such as the selected target language and whether auto-translate is enabled.

  • No account is required
  • No payment information is collected
  • No message archive is intentionally stored by the extension

Permissions used

  • activeTab and tabs to interact with the currently active Telegram Web tab
  • storage to save the user's language and auto-translate settings
  • Host permissions for web.telegram.org and the translation endpoint to read visible chat text and request translations

User control

Users control when translation runs by opening Telegram Web, choosing a target language, and clicking translate or enabling auto-translate. Users can also clear translated annotations from the page.
