Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 3, 2026

What we store, and where

On your device only (via Chrome's local storage):

• The workspaces you save (names, tab URLs, tab titles, optional notes, color preferences)
• Your settings (restore mode, auto-save toggle)

This data lives in your browser via chrome.storage.local. It never leaves your device. We have no servers that hold it. If you uninstall TabVault, all of this data is deleted by Chrome automatically.

What gets sent off your device

Only one thing: if you upgrade to TabVault Pro, your email address and payment status are handled by our payment processor, ExtensionPay (operated by Glench / extensionpay.com). They process the payment via Stripe and tell TabVault whether your license is active. We do not receive your credit card details — only a "paid: true/false" flag.

ExtensionPay's privacy practices are documented at extensionpay.com/privacy.

That is the entire list of off-device data flow.

What we do NOT collect

• No analytics or telemetry
• No tracking pixels or fingerprinting
• No browsing history (TabVault only sees the tab URLs you explicitly choose to save)
• No advertising identifiers
• No data sold or shared with third parties
