TabSaver Pro — Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025  |  Effective date: January 2025

TL;DR — TabSaver Pro does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All information stays on your device. No accounts, no tracking, no analytics.

1. Overview

TabSaver Pro ("the Extension") is a Chrome browser extension that helps users manage browser tabs by automatically suspending inactive tabs to free system memory. This Privacy Policy explains what data the Extension interacts with and how it is handled.

2. Data Collection

The Extension does not collect any user data. Specifically:

3. Data Stored Locally

The Extension uses chrome.storage.local to store the following data exclusively on your device:

Data Purpose
User settings Auto-suspend timer preference, toggle states
Whitelist entries Domain names you mark as "never suspend"
Session groups Names and tab URLs you save as sessions
Memory statistics Aggregate counts of tabs suspended and estimated memory saved
License key Pro activation status (if purchased)

This data never leaves your device and is never transmitted to any server. It is stored using Chrome's built-in local storage API and can be cleared at any time by uninstalling the Extension or clearing browser data.

4. Network Requests

The Extension makes one type of network request:

If you do not enter a license key, no network requests are made. The Extension operates fully offline for all free-tier features.

5. Permissions Usage

Permission Reason
tabs Query open tabs to display in the management UI and use chrome.tabs.discard() to suspend inactive tabs.
storage Persist user preferences and statistics locally via chrome.storage.local.
alarms Schedule periodic auto-suspend checks at user-configured intervals.
activeTab Access the currently focused tab when the popup is opened for quick actions.

6. Third-Party Services

The Extension does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, tracking, or data collection services. There are no embedded third-party scripts, iframes, or tracking pixels.

7. Children's Privacy

The Extension does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Since no data is collected or transmitted, there is no risk of children's data being inadvertently gathered.

8. Data Sharing

Since no data is collected or stored remotely, there is no data to share. We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer any user information to third parties.

9. Changes to This Policy

If this Privacy Policy changes, the updated policy will be posted at https://devtoolhub.cc/tabsaver-privacy-policy.html with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage users to review this policy periodically.
