TabShift — Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 1, 2026

What data TabShift collects

TabShift stores the following data locally on your device using Chrome's built-in chrome.storage.sync API:

• Workspace names, colors, and URL lists you create
• Schedule settings (days of week, start/end times)
• Auto-cycle interval and auto-scroll speed preferences
• Whether the scheduling feature is enabled

This data is synced across your Chrome profile devices via Google's Chrome Sync infrastructure. TabShift does not transmit any data to external servers operated by TabShift or its developer.

What TabShift does NOT collect

• No browsing history
• No page content or form data
• No personal information
• No analytics or telemetry
• No cookies or tracking identifiers

Host permissions

TabShift requests access to http://*/* and https://*/* exclusively to inject a lightweight auto-scroll script into pages that are part of your workspaces. The script only responds to messages from TabShift's own service worker and does not read, transmit, or modify page content.

Third-party services

The TabShift popup loads the Inter font from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com). No user data is sent as part of this request beyond your browser's standard HTTP headers (IP address, user-agent). See Google's Privacy Policy for details.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the effective date above will be updated. Continued use of TabShift after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
