No Duplicate Tabs – Privacy Policy

No Duplicate Tabs – Privacy Policy

No Duplicate Tabs is a Chrome extension that prevents duplicate tabs from being opened and lets you jump back to the original tab instead.

Data the extension uses

The extension reads the URLs of your open tabs using Chrome’s tabs API. This is only used to detect when you open a duplicate of an already open page.

The extension uses Chrome’s storage API to store a small list of normalized URLs for which you have chosen to “allow duplicates”.

What we don’t do

We do not collect, log, or transmit your browsing history or tab URLs to any external server.

We do not use your data for advertising, tracking, or analytics.

We do not sell or share any data with third parties.

Where data is stored

All data is stored locally in your browser’s profile using Chrome’s built-in storage (chrome.storage.sync or chrome.storage.local).

Data retention and control

You can clear the data at any time by removing the extension from Chrome, which deletes its stored data.
