Privacy

The short version

TabGod has no server that holds your tabs. Your URLs, page titles, page content, and activity signals are never sent to us, because there is nothing on our side to receive them. Everything the extension does with your tabs happens inside your browser.

Two things do leave your machine, both because you asked for them, and both described below: an optional purchase, and optional browser-native sync.

What we receive

These three paragraphs are the audited wording used in every store listing and support reply. They are reproduced here word for word.

Tabgod has no tab-data backend and never receives URLs, titles, page content, or activity signals. It contacts the accountless licensing service only after the user chooses Buy, to open Stripe Managed Payments Checkout, claim the signed licence once, or request email redelivery. Optional browser-native sync uses the browser vendor's service and privacy terms; licence sync is a separate, default-off bearer-credential choice.

Tabgod ships no telemetry SDK. We use aggregate statistics and crash information supplied by browser stores, plus user-exported diagnostics.

The embedding model is bundled with the extension. No tab data, browsed URLs, or page titles are transmitted. The model is downloaded once at install time as part of the extension package.

What stays in your browser

Open tabs, the archive of closed tabs, group names and membership, the activity timeline, the focus trail, your settings, and — with a licence — the embeddings the bundled model computes. All of it lives in your browser's own extension storage, and all of it is removed when you uninstall the extension.

Private and incognito tabs are excluded at the point data would be written. Their URLs and titles never enter the archive, the embeddings, the activity history, or an export file.

Export files are yours. They contain URLs and titles, which is the point of them, and the extension warns you before writing one.

Optional browser-native sync

If you turn on sync, your browser carries the data between your own signed-in browsers using the vendor's sync service — Google's, Mozilla's, or Apple's — under that vendor's terms and privacy policy. It does not pass through us, and we cannot read it.

Settings sync carries your preferences. Archive sync additionally carries your archived tab records, which include URLs and page titles. It is off by default and is a separate switch, so turning on sync does not turn it on for you.

Licence sync is a third, separate, default-off switch. A licence is a bearer credential, so it is kept out of the ordinary sync payload unless you explicitly choose otherwise.

If you buy a licence

Nothing is sent anywhere until you choose Buy. From then, the accountless licensing service is contacted to open Stripe Managed Payments Checkout, to claim the signed licence once, and to send it again by email if you ask.

That service holds the minimum needed to fulfil and re-deliver a purchase: the purchase identity, the claim, delivery state, and licence metadata. It never holds URLs, page titles, page content, archives, activity, or semantic data. Payment details go to Stripe and are never seen by us.

Your email address is used to deliver the licence and to let you recover it later. Ask at support@binarybusiness.me and we will tell you what is held against your purchase, correct it, or delete it — bearing in mind that deleting the record ends our ability to re-deliver your licence.

No tracking

No analytics SDK, no crash-reporting SDK, no advertising identifiers, no cookies set by us, and no page content read from the sites you visit. Site icons come from your browser's own local icon store, so displaying one sends no request.

What we do see is what the browser stores show every developer: aggregate install and usage counts, and crash information, none of which identifies you to us.

If you are in the EU or the UK you may complain to your national data protection authority. In Denmark that is Datatilsynet.

Changes

Each extension update shows a one-time panel describing what changed about data handling, so a change reaches you in the browser rather than only on this page.
