Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Privacy

BackTick is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe your browsing activity is personal and should stay that way. This policy explains our approach to data and privacy.

Data Collection

BackTick does not collect any personal data. The extension operates entirely on your local device and does not transmit any information to external servers.

Specifically, we do not collect:

• Browsing history or tab information
• Personal information or identifiers
• Usage statistics or analytics
• Any form of tracking data

Local Storage

BackTick stores your preferences (such as view mode and settings) locally in your browser using Chrome's built-in storage APIs. This data:

• Never leaves your device
• Is not accessible to us or any third party
• Can be cleared by uninstalling the extension

Permissions

BackTick requires certain browser permissions to function. Here's why each is needed:

• Tabs: Required to read tab information (titles, URLs, favicons) and switch between tabs
• Storage: Required to save your preferences locally
• Sessions: Required to access recently closed tabs

All these permissions are used solely for the extension's core functionality and data stays on your device.

Third-Party Services

BackTick does not use any third-party services, analytics platforms, or external APIs. The extension is completely self-contained.

Updates to This Policy

If we make any changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
