privacy policy.

one-click tab snapshot — markdown / plain / json / readme. zero telemetry, zero servers.

← back to tabsnap

this is the privacy policy for tabsnap — a free, open-source browser extension by vøiddo that takes a snapshot of your currently-open tabs and lets you copy or download it as text.

vøiddo is the data controller. you can reach us at support@voiddo.com for any privacy question.

1. what we collect

nothing. tabsnap does not collect, transmit, or share any personal data. there is no backend, no analytics, no telemetry, no remote endpoint of any kind.

everything happens in your browser, on your machine, only when you click the toolbar icon and press copy or download.

2. what tabsnap reads

when you click the toolbar icon and the popup opens, tabsnap calls chrome.tabs.query() once to get the list of currently-open tabs. for each tab, the API returns:

  • the tab’s title (the page’s <title>)
  • the tab’s URL
  • the window id and an “is pinned” flag (so we can group / filter)
  • the “is incognito” flag (so we can skip private windows by default)

that data lives in memory inside the popup. it is rendered in the preview pane and, if you press copy or download, written to your clipboard or to a file on your disk. nothing else happens to it.

tabsnap does not read the contents of any page, cookies, browsing history, form data, or the page’s DOM. it has no activeTab permission, no host permissions, and no content scripts.

3. browser permissions

  • tabs — required to list open tabs (title + URL only) when the popup opens. without this, the extension cannot do its single job.
  • downloads — used only when you click the “download” button. the extension hands a generated text file to the browser’s download UI; the file is saved by you, not by us.
  • storagechrome.storage.local only. used to remember your popup preferences (last-chosen format, “group by window” toggle, etc.) so you don’t have to re-pick them every time. cleared when you uninstall.

not requested: activeTab, scripting, host permissions, cookies, history, identity, webRequest, or any other privileged API.

(no network call. no server. no log.)

5. cookies

the extension itself sets no cookies. extensions.voiddo.com (this website) is a static site with no cookies, no analytics, no trackers.

6. children’s privacy

tabsnap is suitable for all ages. we do not knowingly collect data from anyone, including children, because we do not collect data at all.

7. your rights (GDPR / CCPA / etc.)

since we hold no personal data on you, there is nothing to access, rectify, port, or erase on our side. you can:

  • delete the extension — this clears local preferences instantly.
  • see the source code — tabsnap is published as MIT-licensed source on github at github.com/voidd0/tabsnap. audit it.
  • email us at support@voiddo.com for any question or complaint.

8. changes to this policy

if we ever start collecting data (we have no plan to), this page will change before that ships and we will bump the version + the “last updated” line above. continued use of the extension after a change constitutes acceptance.

9. contact
