Overview

ZeTabs ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our browser extension and website.

Information We Collect

Browser Extension

Our browser extension operates with a privacy-first approach:

  • Local Storage Only: All tab sessions are stored locally on your device. We never upload or transmit your browsing data to our servers.
  • User Preferences: We store your settings locally in your browser using the browser's storage API.
  • License Information: If you purchase a Pro license, we store your license key locally to verify your subscription status.
  • Storage Quota: For free tier users, we limit storage to a maximum of 3 sessions locally.

Website

When you visit our website or make a purchase:

  • Email Address: We collect your email address when you purchase a Pro subscription to send you your license key and receipts.
  • Payment Information: Payment processing is handled by Stripe. We never see or store your credit card information.
  • Device ID: A random device identifier is generated to link your purchase to your device.

How We Use Your Information

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We use the following third-party services:

Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your information. All data transmission is encrypted using HTTPS. Your tab sessions never leave your device - all storage and processing happens locally in your browser.

Your Tab Sessions

Important: We never see, store, or have access to your tab sessions. All session data is stored entirely on your device using local browser storage. Your browsing history, URLs, and tab information remain completely private. We have zero knowledge of what tabs you save or restore.
