Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
Overview
NewTabPage is a Chrome extension that replaces your new tab page with a personal dashboard. Your privacy is fundamental to how this extension works - we designed it so that no data ever leaves your device.
Data We Collect
We do not collect any personal data.
Everything you add - groups, links, widgets, settings, preferences - is stored exclusively in your browser using Chrome's local storage (chrome.storage.local). This data never leaves your device and is never transmitted to any server.
Permissions Used
| Permission | Why it's needed |
|---|---|
| storage | Save your groups, links, and settings locally in your browser |
| tabs | Show your currently open tabs as suggestions when adding a new link |
| history | Power the visit analytics feature (processed locally, never sent anywhere) |
| bookmarks | Let you import your existing Chrome bookmarks into a group |
| geolocation | Detect your city for the weather widget - used in real time, never stored |
Third-Party Services
When you use certain widgets, the extension makes requests to third-party APIs. No personal data is sent - only the minimum required to fetch the content:
| Service | Used for | Data sent |
|---|---|---|
| open-meteo.com | Weather widget | Your approximate coordinates (lat/lng) |
| geocoding-api.open-meteo.com | City name lookup | Your approximate coordinates |
| api.coinbase.com | Market prices widget | Nothing (public API) |
| logo.clearbit.com | Site logo images | The domain name of the site |
| api.allorigins.win | Proxy for fetching favicon/metadata | The URL you add |
These services have their own privacy policies. If you do not use the corresponding widgets, no requests are made to those services.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, share, or transmit your data to any third party. There are no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting, and no advertising.
Data Deletion
To delete all your data, simply uninstall the extension. Chrome will remove all locally stored data automatically.
Changes to This Policy
If this policy changes in a material way, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
