AI Chat New Tab - Privacy Policy
Introduction
AI Chat New Tab is a Chrome extension that transforms your new tab page into a unified hub for accessing multiple AI chat platforms including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Deepseek, and Qwen. We are committed to protecting your privacy and providing a secure browsing experience.
Data Collection
We do not collect any user data. The extension operates entirely within your browser and does not transmit any personal information, browsing history, or other data to our servers or any third parties.
The extension facilitates access to AI chat platforms by embedding their official websites in iframes. All interactions with AI services (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Deepseek, Qwen) are handled directly by those services according to their own privacy policies.
Local Storage
The extension uses your browser's local storage and Chrome's storage API to save:
- Your AI Chat toggle preferences (enabled/disabled state)
- Tab arrangement and order preferences
- Memory management settings (sleep inactive chats)
- Other user interface preferences
This data never leaves your browser and is only used to provide the extension's functionality and remember your preferences.
