Privacy
This is the whole policy. There's no hidden version — what's below is what the code does.
There is no server in this release. Nothing about your tabs ever leaves your computer.
cattracks records to your browser's local storage and nothing more — not because a server isn't built yet, but because recording can't wait on one. A future sync feature would be opt-in and separately disclosed here before it shipped.
What cattracks records
- The URL and title of your open tabs, as they change.
- Favicons, tab order, pinned state, and tab-group membership.
- Which window each tab belongs to, and when each change happened.
What it never records
- Page content. The extension requests no permission to read any page you visit.
- Screenshots or thumbnails of any kind.
- Anything at all in an incognito window.
- Anything on a site you've added to your blocklist.
Those three permissions are the whole list. Chrome shows you exactly this when you install cattracks — there's no broader "read and change all your data on every site you visit" permission behind it.
Where your history lives
On your own computer, in the browser's local storage. In this release cattracks has no accounts, no sign-in, and sends nothing to any server — your history never crosses the network.
Deleting your history
Open the extension's options page to delete a specific date range, or everything at once. Deletion is immediate and permanent — there's no server copy left behind to restore from, because none exists. Uninstalling the extension removes it too.
