TabDoze - Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 31, 2026

Summary

TabDoze is a browser extension that suspends inactive tabs to save memory. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data.

Data Collection

TabDoze does not collect any data. Specifically:

• No browsing data is transmitted. All tab information stays on your device.
• No personal information is collected. We do not ask for or store your name, email, or any other personal data.
• No analytics or tracking. We do not use analytics services, advertising SDKs, or tracking pixels in the extension.
• No network requests. The extension does not connect to the internet.
• No account required. You do not need to create an account to use TabDoze.

Data Stored Locally

TabDoze stores the following data locally on your device using the browser's chrome.storage.local API:

• User settings: auto-suspend timer, whitelist domains, protection flags.
• Suspension statistics: aggregate count of tabs suspended and estimated memory saved.
• Session snapshots: tab URLs and titles for session restore (one snapshot in the free tier).

This data never leaves your browser. It is not synced across devices.

Tab Metadata

TabDoze reads tab metadata (URL, title, audible state, pinned state) solely to determine which tabs are eligible for suspension and to build session snapshots. This metadata is stored only locally and is never transmitted externally.

No Content Scripts

TabDoze does not inject content scripts into web pages. It cannot read page content, form data, cookies, or any other page-level information.

Permissions

TabDoze requests only three browser permissions:

• tabs — query tab state and suspend tabs using the native discard API.
• storage — save settings and snapshots locally.
• alarms — schedule periodic suspension checks.

Children's Privacy

TabDoze does not knowingly collect any information from children. The extension has no user accounts, no social features, and no data collection.
