Privacy Policy for Custom URL New Tab

Information the Extension stores

The Extension stores only the settings you enter in its toolbar popup:

• The URL or local file path for new tabs
• Whether the Extension is enabled
• Whether the address bar is selected when a new tab opens
• Whether light mode is on
• Whether Chrome Sync for these settings is on

The Extension does not require an account. It does not use analytics, advertising, or cookies, and it does not collect browsing history.

How the information is used

The stored settings are used only to open your chosen page in a new tab and to show the popup the way you set it. The developer does not receive those settings.

Data storage

Settings are saved on your device with Chrome's built-in storage. If you leave "Sync settings with Chrome" on, and you are signed into Chrome with sync enabled, Chrome copies the URL, enabled state, address-bar setting, and light mode through Chrome Sync to other copies of this Extension on browsers signed into the same Google account. That transfer is handled by Google. The choice to use Chrome Sync stays on that device.

If you turn "Sync settings with Chrome" off, the settings remain on that browser only. The Extension does not send settings to a server operated by the developer.

Local files

If you enter a local file path, the Extension stores that path as your new-tab address. It does not upload the file. Chrome opens the file only after you allow the Extension to access file URLs.

Data sharing

The developer does not sell or share your settings. Chrome Sync, when you leave it on, is the only way those settings leave the device, and that sync is handled by Google.

Deleting your information

Remove the Extension in chrome://extensions to delete the copy stored on that device. If Chrome Sync was on, you can also remove the synced copy from Chrome Sync on the devices where you are signed in.

Children

The Extension is not directed at children under 13, and it does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
