TabTab Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 4, 2026
TabTab does not collect, sell or share your browsing data. TabTab has no servers of its own.
Data stored by the extension
TabTab stores these on your computer, in chrome.storage.local and chrome.storage.session: your settings, including groups, rules and keywords, plus titles and addresses of open tabs and of tabs closed by TabTab, previous sessions, presets, tidy statistics and display preferences.
You can delete history and statistics in Settings → Advanced. Removing the extension removes its local data.

Feedback and donations
The Send feedback and Buy me a coffee links open external sites, Tally and Buy Me a Coffee. Nothing is sent unless you choose to submit it there, and what you submit is stored by that service. If you attach a screenshot, it may show your tab titles, so please hide anything private. When you uninstall TabTab, Chrome opens a goodbye page hosted on GitHub Pages. It includes an optional Tally form, and any answers you send are stored by Tally.
Disclaimer
Memory figures are rough estimates of about 100 MB per closed tab. History can reopen a closed page, but not unsaved work in it. TabTab is provided "as is", without warranties. To the extent permitted by law, the developer is not liable for lost data or other damages from using it.
