Privacy Policy
Organize does not collect, transmit, or store any of your personal data. Tab organization, grouping, and duplicate tab detection all run entirely within your browser.
What We Access
To function, Organize reads your open tabs, tab groups, and window information using Chrome's extension APIs. This includes tab titles, URLs, favicons, group names, colors, and which tabs belong to which group. This data is used only to render the extension UI, perform grouping actions you initiate, and detect duplicate tabs in the current window.
When you invoke Organize's "Search Tabs" keyboard shortcut, the extension opens its own side panel with search pre-activated — no content script is injected into the page you're viewing, and no page content is read.
We store a small set of local preferences in chrome.storage.local: duplicate-review acknowledgement state, duplicate-detection settings, the last-viewed section (Tabs or Groups), whether all-windows view is enabled, the tab-grouping display mode, and whether you've dismissed onboarding tips. A brief one-time flag is also stored in chrome.storage.session to activate search when opened via the keyboard shortcut, and the browser's sessionStorage is used locally to avoid reload loops if an unexpected error occurs. None of this data ever leaves your device.
What We Don't Access
We do not access page content, browsing history, cookies, passwords, bookmarks, downloads, or any personal information. We only see what's visible in your browser's tab bar.
No Data Leaves Your Device
Organize has no backend server, no analytics, and no telemetry. All tab data stays on your device and is never sent anywhere.
