Tab Daddy — Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 October 2026

Tab Daddy works entirely on your computer. It makes no network requests, has no server, and never collects, stores, sends or sells anything about your tabs.

What the extension reads, on your computer

• Tab titles and addresses, through Chrome's tabs API, to find duplicate tabs, to recognise well-known sites and web apps (for example, an online spreadsheet goes in Sheets, an online shop in Shopping) using a list built into the extension, and to group tabs it can't read.
• A short summary of each open page (its title, description, main headings and the first 1,500 characters of its main text, skipping menus, headers, sidebars and hidden text), but only after you click Allow to give Tab Daddy access to the pages you have open. This is how tabs are grouped by what they're about.

What happens to that information

It is held in memory while the popup is open and discarded when the popup closes. Nothing is written to disk, no history is kept, no analytics are gathered, and nothing is sent anywhere.

Third parties

None. No analytics, no advertising, no external scripts, no remote code.

Permissions

• tabs: read tab titles and addresses to group tabs and find duplicates.
• tabGroups: create Chrome tab groups and add tabs to groups you already have.
• scripting: run the small page-summary reader in your open tabs.
• Access to the sites you have open (optional, asked for when you click Allow): lets the page-summary reader run.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this address and the date above revised.
