Overview

Tab Stash is a browser extension that helps you organize, archive, and recall Chrome tabs. We built it with a simple principle: your browsing data stays on your device. We do not operate servers, collect analytics, or store any of your data outside your own browser.


Data We Collect

We collect nothing.

Tab Stash does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. There are no user accounts, no registration, and no telemetry of any kind.


Data Stored Locally on Your Device

Tab Stash stores the following data locally in your browser only, using Chrome's built-in storage APIs:

Data Where stored Purpose
Tab titles, URLs, visit counts, timestamps chrome.storage.local Scoring tabs for auto-archive
Archived tab history IndexedDB (via Dexie.js) Browsable archive and restore
Recent archive list (last 100 tabs) chrome.storage.local Quick access in popup
Extension settings chrome.storage.sync Persist your preferences
AI provider API keys chrome.storage.local Authenticate AI grouping requests

This data never leaves your device except as described in the AI Grouping section below.

You can delete all locally stored data at any time by removing the extension from Chrome.


AI Grouping (Optional Feature)

Tab Stash offers an optional AI-powered tab grouping feature. This feature is disabled by default and requires you to supply your own API key from a third-party AI provider.
