Tab Vault — Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 6, 2026

The short version

Tab Vault does not collect, transmit, or sell any of your data. Everything it saves — your sessions, snapshots, and settings — is stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage.local API and never leaves your device.

What we do not do

• We do not operate any server that receives your data.
• We do not use analytics, trackers, or advertising.
• We do not share or sell data to anyone.

Permissions and why each is needed

• tabs — to read the URLs and titles of your open tabs so they can be saved and restored.
• storage / unlimitedStorage — to keep your sessions and snapshots on your device.
• alarms — to run the periodic auto-backup on a timer.
• downloads — to save a backup file to your computer when you click Export.

Your control

You can export all your data to a file at any time, import it back, or delete everything from the Settings page. Uninstalling Tab Vault removes its locally stored data from your browser, so export first if you want to keep it.

Payments

If you upgrade to Pro, payment is handled by a third-party processor (ExtensionPay). Tab Vault never sees or stores your card details.
