| ## FreeTab Privacy Policy | |
| Last Updated: May 13, 2026 | |
| ### Data Collection & Storage | |
| FreeTab stores the following data locally on your device: | |
| - Saved tab information (URLs, titles) | |
| - Tab group and space organizational structure | |
| - Theme preferences and language settings | |
| - Sync configuration (WebDAV addresses, GitHub Tokens, and other credentials) | |
| All data is stored exclusively in your browser's local storage ( chrome.storage.local and localStorage ) by default and is never automatically sent to any external server. | |
| ### Data Synchronization | |
| FreeTab offers optional remote synchronization. Only when you explicitly enable sync will the extension transmit your tab data to a remote storage service that you own and configure : | |
| - WebDAV Sync : Data is sent to your self-configured WebDAV server (e.g., jianguoyun, Infini-Cloud, etc.) | |
| - GitHub Gist Sync : Data is sent to your own GitHub Gist account | |
| The data transmitted during synchronization contains only your tab organizational structure and no other personal information. Sync credentials (tokens, passwords) are used solely for authentication with the services you specify and are never sent to the developer or any third party. | |
| ### Data Sharing & Disclosure | |
| FreeTab does not share, sell, or disclose any of your data to any third party. The developer has no access to your tab data, sync credentials, or any other information stored within the extension. All data remains entirely under your control. | |
| ### Data Security | |
| Your sync credentials are stored in your browser's local storage. Remote synchronization is transmitted over HTTPS. We recommend using app-specific passwords for WebDAV and personal access tokens with minimal permissions for GitHub. | |
| ### Your Rights | |
| You may at any time: | |
| - Export or delete all data stored by the extension | |
| - Disable or modify sync settings | |
| - Uninstall the extension to completely remove all locally stored data | |
| ### Contact | |
