TabHalo does not collect your data.
TabHalo is a browser extension that marks tabs with a color, a symbol or a label. It works entirely inside your browser. This page explains exactly what that means, for the extension and for this website.
The extension
What it stores. Your marks (the color and label you give a tab, with the tab's address so the mark can be restored after a restart), your rules, labels, custom colors and display settings. All of this is kept in your browser's local extension storage on your own device. It is never sent anywhere, and it is not synced through your Google account.
What it does not do. TabHalo has no account system, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking and no remote servers. It does not read or store the content of the pages you visit, and it does not send your browsing history, tab titles or addresses to us or to anyone else. It does not load or run remote code.
What it reads, locally. To do its job TabHalo reads the title, address and icon of your tabs inside your browser. It uses them to apply and restore marks, to match your rules and to list your marked tabs. To draw the colored icon it requests the icon file that the marked site itself already provides; no other site is contacted.
Permissions.
- Access to all sites: needed to change the title and icon of whichever tab you choose to mark. Chrome requires this permission to modify a page's title and icon.
- Tabs: to read tab titles, addresses and icons, and to jump to the next marked tab.
- Storage: to save your marks and settings on your device.
- Context menus: to add the right-click TabHalo menu.
- Scripting: to start TabHalo in tabs that were already open when it was installed or updated.
Deleting your data. Remove a mark from the popup, or uninstall the extension; its stored data is deleted by your browser.
Changes. If TabHalo ever needs to send data off your device (for example, to check a license for paid features), this policy will be updated before that version is released, and the change will be described in plain language.
