Cookie Policy

Effective Date: July 31, 2026 • Version 2.0.0

Summary: Tabvora does NOT use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics scripts. We rely strictly on standard local browser storage (chrome.storage.local, chrome.storage.session, and IndexedDB) to save your dashboard configurations, preferences, and optional features locally on your machine.

1. What Are Cookies & Local Storage?

Cookies are small text files placed on your browser by websites to remember preferences or track user behavior across the web. Local Storage (including chrome.storage APIs and IndexedDB) is a secure, client-side browser storage mechanism that allows applications to save configuration data directly on your device without transmitting it over the internet.

2. Zero Tracking Cookie Policy

In strict alignment with Google Chrome Web Store Developer Policies:

  • • No Advertising Cookies: We do not serve ads, display personalized promotions, or partner with advertising networks.
  • • No Analytics Cookies: We do not track page views, button clicks, or user sessions via Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Hotjar, or any third-party tracking scripts.
  • • No Cross-Site Tracking: Tabvora never reads, writes, or inspects third-party cookies from external websites you visit.

3. Essential Local Storage Usage

Instead of cookies, Tabvora utilizes browser-native local storage engines strictly to provide essential dashboard functionality:

  • • User Preferences: Storing selected theme modes, layout density, corner radius, background styles, and widget preferences (e.g., Browser Usage Card).
  • • Dashboard Data: Saving your speed dial shortcuts, quick notes, workspace categories, and archived items locally inside IndexedDB.
  • • Optional Productivity Tools: Preserving optional feature data (such as local Usage Statistics logs, Website/Global Usage Limits, and Draft Recovery snapshots) strictly on-device when enabled by the user.
  • • Session Timers: Utilizing chrome.storage.session for temporary state management (such as Digital Wellbeing break reminders and limit dismissals) that automatically reset when Chrome closes.

4. How to Clear Stored Data

You retain full control over all stored data. You can clear or reset local data created by Tabvora at any time directly through Extension Settings by performing a Factory Reset, clearing specific logs (such as usage statistics or saved drafts), or by uninstalling the extension from Chrome.
