Our Commitment to Your Privacy

TabFlow is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe your browsing data is yours alone, and our extension reflects this commitment.

What Information TabFlow Accesses

To provide its tab management features, TabFlow requires access to:

  • Tab Information: URLs, titles, and favicons of your open tabs
  • Window Information: Details about your browser windows

⚠️ Important: This information is only accessed to display it in the TabFlow interface. It is never collected, stored on servers, or transmitted anywhere.

What We DON'T Do

  • No Data Collection: We don't collect any personal data or browsing information
  • No Analytics: We don't use any analytics or tracking services
  • No External Servers: TabFlow doesn't connect to any external servers
  • No Data Sharing: We don't share any information with third parties
  • No User Profiles: We don't create or maintain user profiles
  • No Cookies: We don't use cookies or similar tracking technologies

Local Storage

TabFlow uses Chrome's local storage API to save your preferences:

  • Your preferred view layout (masonry, list, or full masonry)
  • Your preferred view size (normal, compact, or ultra-compact)
  • Whether you prefer tabs grouped by domain

This data is stored locally on your device and is never transmitted. When you uninstall TabFlow, this data is automatically removed.
