Privacy policy
Last updated: 2026-09-06
The short version
Tabka stores your local workspaces and bookmarks in your browser. Cloud sync is optional and requires an account. Tabka does not sell personal data or use your browsing history for advertising.
Browser permissions
The current extension requests access to tabs, bookmarks and all HTTP/HTTPS pages; page access is a required permission, not an optional request. Tabka displays open tabs locally and can import browser bookmarks. When you explicitly open the bookmark popup or request a preview or cover-region selection, the extension obtains page data, such as the URL and title, and can capture a screenshot of the visible page for the bookmark or its cover. Browser restrictions on page access still apply.
Data we process
If you create an account, the service processes your email, profile, workspaces, pages, collections and bookmarks to provide authentication and sync. During account sync, public URLs eligible for synchronization and the covers you choose, including screenshots or uploaded images, are sent to the Tabka API. Local-only bookmark URLs and their covers stay in your browser and are not sent to the API. Authentication and security logs may include IP address and user-agent.
If you request AI tab organization, data for eligible public tabs, including URLs, titles and tab identifiers, is sent through the Tabka API to the configured AI provider for analysis. Local-only URLs are excluded. This user-requested processing is separate from optional usage analytics.
Optional telemetry
Anonymous usage analytics and client error reports are off until you opt in from Settings. Analytics contain feature events and coarse technical metadata; they never include bookmark URLs, titles, notes, search queries or workspace names. Error reports are redacted and exclude bookmark content. You can revoke either choice at any time; revoking also clears locally queued anonymous events.
Your controls
You can use Tabka as a guest, export your data, delete your account, revoke sessions, and remove local data from browser storage. Contact support for privacy requests.
