AI Tab Manager Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 8, 2026. Last updated: May 20, 2026.

    Summary: AI Tab Manager accesses your browser tab data and optionally your Google Calendar data to provide AI-powered features. We never sell your data, never store it permanently on our servers, and never share it with third parties beyond what is needed to power the features you explicitly use.
  

Free users: We do not collect, store, or share any personal data about you. Tab titles and URLs are sent to Claude AI only when you click an AI button, and are immediately discarded after processing. We have no account system, no user profiles, and no way to identify you personally.

1. Who We Are

AI Tab Manager is a Chrome and Edge browser extension developed and operated by Hunter (hntrdalli), an independent developer. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your data when you use the AI Tab Manager browser extension and the optional BrainTab Premium features.

2. What Data We Collect

AI Tab Manager collects two categories of data depending on which features you use.

Free features (all users):

Data Type	What It Includes	Why We Collect It
Tab titles and URLs	The title and web address of your open browser tabs	To power AI tab grouping, summarization, and natural language search
Session data	Tab titles and URLs at the time you save a session	To allow you to restore your browser sessions later
Snooze settings	The URL and scheduled return time of snoozed tabs	To bring snoozed tabs back at your chosen time

BrainTab Premium features (optional, requires Google Calendar connection):

Data Type	What It Includes	Why We Collect It
Google Calendar events	Meeting titles, start and end times	To display your upcoming meetings and schedule pre-meeting alerts
Meeting attendees	Attendee names and email addresses from calendar events	To generate attendee research and conversation starters using AI
Meeting descriptions	Agenda and notes from calendar event descriptions	To generate personalized AI meeting briefs and talking points
Google OAuth token	A temporary access token issued by Google	To authenticate and fetch your calendar data securely

Google Calendar data is only accessed when you explicitly connect your calendar in the Meetings tab. You can disconnect at any time by clicking the Disconnect button.

We do not collect your name, passwords, financial information, health data, location, or any other personal information beyond what is listed above.

3. How We Handle Your Data

When you use any AI feature the following process occurs:

Your data is sent from your browser to our secure API hosted on Vercel.
Our API forwards this data to Anthropic's Claude AI to generate the requested output.
The AI response is returned to your browser and displayed in the extension.
Your data is immediately discarded after processing. It is not logged, stored, or retained on our servers in any form.

We deliberately avoid logging request content to protect your privacy. Our server logs contain only generic status information with no reference to your personal data.

4. How We Store Your Data

Tab data and calendar data sent for AI processing are never stored on our servers. They exist in memory only for the duration of the API request.
Saved sessions and snooze settings are stored locally on your device using Chrome's built-in storage API. This data never leaves your device.
Google OAuth tokens are stored locally in Chrome's identity system and are managed by Chrome itself. We never store your Google credentials on our servers.
Reminder preferences are stored locally on your device only.

5. How We Share Your Data

We share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

Anthropic Claude API receives tab titles, URLs, calendar event data, and attendee information solely to process your AI feature requests. Anthropic processes this data subject to their privacy policy at anthropic.com/privacy.
Google Calendar API is accessed using your OAuth token to read your calendar events. This access is read-only and governed by Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
Vercel hosts our secure API. Vercel may process request metadata such as IP addresses as part of standard server operation. Vercel's privacy policy is at vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.
LemonSqueezy processes payments for BrainTab Premium subscriptions. Payment data is handled entirely by LemonSqueezy and is never seen or stored by us. LemonSqueezy's privacy policy is at lemonsqueezy.com/privacy.

We do not sell your data to any third party. We do not share your data with advertisers or data brokers.

6. Google API Disclosure

AI Tab Manager uses Google Calendar API to read your calendar events when you connect your Google account. Our use of Google Calendar data is limited to providing the Meeting Prep features described in this policy. We do not use Google user data for any other purpose, including advertising, profiling, or sharing with third parties beyond Anthropic's Claude AI for the sole purpose of generating meeting briefs and attendee research.

Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
