TabAI ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, handle, store, and share your data when you use the TabAI Chrome Extension and related services.
By using TabAI, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
1. User Data Collection
To provide our intelligent tab management, focus blocking, and task integration features, we collect the following types of information:
- Web Browsing Activity: We collect data about your open tabs, windows, and browsing sessions (including URLs, page titles, and favicons) to automatically group tabs and provide smart search features.
- Website Content: When utilizing our AI features or smart search, we may access the content of the active web pages you visit to analyze context and provide relevant task or grouping suggestions.
- Bookmarks and Sessions: We access your bookmarks and session history to enhance search capabilities and allow you to quickly resume previous workflows.
- Account and Authentication Data: When you sign in (via Google or email), we collect your basic profile information (name, email address, and account ID).
- Third-Party Integration Data: When you connect external tools (such as Google Calendar, Notion, Linear, Todoist, or TickTick), we securely collect and store OAuth tokens and access tasks, events, and project details to display them within TabAI.
- Usage and Device Information: We collect analytics regarding how you interact with the extension, your browser type, OS, and approximate location data to improve our services.
- Form Data & Authentication: We securely handle tokens but do not read passwords or unrelated form fields on third-party sites.
2. User Data Handling
We use the data we collect exclusively for the core functionality of the TabAI extension:
- Providing Core Features: Your browsing activity and page content are processed to automatically organize tabs, block distractions during Focus Mode, and enable AI-powered chat and search.
- Task Management: Integration data is processed to synchronize your tasks and calendar events across your connected productivity tools.
- Service Improvement: Usage analytics are handled to identify bugs, optimize performance, and improve the user experience.
- Communication: We handle your email address to send transactional updates, support responses, and optional product news.
3. User Data Storage
We take data protection seriously and implement robust measures to secure your information:
- Storage Location: User accounts, encrypted OAuth tokens, and synced tasks/events are stored on secure, EU/US compliant cloud servers (e.g., Supabase).
- Local Storage: Certain browsing data, such as your immediate tab state and local preferences, are stored locally on your device within the Chrome browser's storage mechanisms.
- Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted in transit using industry-standard protocols (HTTPS/TLS). Sensitive data, such as OAuth tokens, is encrypted at rest.
- Data Retention: We retain your data only for as long as your account is active. If you disconnect an integration, the associated tokens and cached data are immediately deleted. You can request complete deletion of your account and data at any time by contacting support.
4. User Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data or browsing history to third parties. We only share data with trusted third-party service providers under strict confidentiality agreements to operate our service:
- LLM / AI Providers: To provide smart tab grouping, AI search, and chat features, relevant context (such as tab titles, URLs, or specific page content you query) is shared securely with our AI model providers. This data is not used by these providers to train their public models. We use encryption in transit to ensure this sharing is secure.
- Infrastructure Providers: We share necessary data with our hosting and database providers (e.g., Vercel, Supabase) and payment processors (Polar.sh) solely to run the application securely.
- Analytics Providers: We use minimal, privacy-focused analytics services to understand aggregate usage trends.
Limited Use Policy Compliance

- We do not use or transfer your data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes.

Depending on your location (e.g., under GDPR or CCPA), you have the right to:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Delete: Request the complete deletion of your account and associated data.
