TabArmor Privacy Policy: 100% Private Tab Manager
Last updated: November 10, 2026
This TabArmor Privacy Policy details our architectural commitment to absolute user privacy. TabArmor is engineered as a zero-telemetry, private tab manager. We do not operate, own, or maintain any external user-tracking servers, cloud databases, or remote telemetry backends. Your browsing session data remains strictly on your device.
1. Data Collection and Usage
TabArmor does not collect, transmit, sell, or rent any personal information, browsing history, cookies, session tokens, or passwords to third parties.
When you explicitly trigger a stash action (via the user interface or keyboard shortcut Alt + W), TabArmor queries the Chrome Tabs API strictly to obtain the URLs, page titles, and tab group tags of the active window. This information is saved locally into your browser internal storage and native Google Chrome Bookmarks ("Other Bookmarks / TabArmor Backups").
2. Permissions Justification
- tabs: Required solely to read URLs, titles, and pinned states when stashing a window, and to recreate those tabs when you click restore.
- tabGroups: Required to preserve and restore native Chrome Tab Group colors and titles without creating duplicate group labels.
- storage: Required to save your session archives and local settings on your machine.
- bookmarks: Used only when you enable the Bookmarks Mirroring feature to back up sessions into your native Google Bookmarks folder.
TabArmor requests zero host permissions (no <all_urls>). This means TabArmor is technically incapable of inspecting web page contents, injecting scripts into websites you visit, or intercepting private data.
3. Third-Party Analytics and Cookies
The TabArmor Chrome extension contains zero third-party trackers, zero advertising SDKs, and zero tracking cookies.
4. Contact Information
If you have questions or feedback regarding this Privacy Policy, you can open an issue on our official open repository or contact us directly via GitHub: https://github.com/akhrienov/tabarmor.
