Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 16, 2024

Overview

New Tab Redirect is a Chrome extension that allows you to redirect new tabs to a custom URL of your choice. This privacy policy explains how we handle your data.

Data Collection and Storage

What we store: The extension stores only the redirect URL that you configure in the extension's options page. This URL is stored locally on your device using Chrome's sync storage API.

Where it's stored: Your configured URL is stored in Chrome's sync storage, which means:

• It is stored locally on your device
• If you are signed into Chrome and have sync enabled, it may be synced across your devices
• The data is encrypted by Chrome's sync service

Data Sharing

We do not:

• Collect any personal information
• Send your data to any external servers
• Share your data with third parties
• Track your browsing behavior
• Access your browsing history

Permissions

The extension requires the following permissions:

• Tabs permission: Used to detect when a new tab is opened and redirect it to your configured URL.
• Storage permission: Used to save your configured redirect URL locally.

Third-Party Services

This extension does not use any third-party analytics, tracking, or data collection services. The only external service involved is Chrome's built-in sync storage, which is managed entirely by Google.

Your Rights

You have full control over your data:

• You can change or delete your configured URL at any time through the extension's options page
• You can uninstall the extension at any time, which will remove all stored data
• You can disable Chrome sync if you don't want your settings synced across devices

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
