TabProxy — Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy — TabProxy

Effective date: 2026-06-24

Data collection

TabProxy does not collect, transmit, or share any personal data.

All configuration (proxy profiles, routing rules, site overrides) is stored exclusively in chrome.storage.local on your device. No data is sent to external servers by the extension itself.

Network requests

TabProxy does not make any network requests on its own. Proxy connections are handled entirely by Chrome's built-in proxy engine via the PAC script generated locally.

Future versions may include optional features (e.g., proxy reachability check) that contact external services. These will require explicit user consent before any request is made.

Permissions

Permission Purpose
proxy Apply proxy settings via a locally generated PAC script
storage Save your proxy profiles, rules, and site overrides locally
tabs Read the active tab's URL to show the proxy in the popup, update the toolbar icon, and reload on Apply
tabGroups Optionally group tabs by proxy profile
webRequest / webRequestAuthProvider Handle proxy authentication challenges (supply saved credentials). Web traffic is not read or modified
<all_urls> Apply per-site proxy rules across all websites (PAC) and provide proxy authentication. No page content is accessed or injected
