Tabsurface
Privacy policy
Tabsurface is a browser extension that shows the websites you choose on one canvas.
What stays on your device
Your boards (page addresses, titles, card positions), your settings and your Pro license key are stored in your browser’s local extension storage. They are not sent to us. We have no server that receives them.
Pages on the canvas are loaded by your browser directly from their sites, with your existing sessions, exactly as in a normal tab. Tabsurface does not read, collect or transmit the content of those pages, your cookies or your passwords.
A backup file you export contains page addresses and layout only. It never contains cookies or logins.
What is sent, and to whom
License check (Pro only). When you enter a license key, and about once a day afterwards, the key is sent to Polar (polar.sh), our payment provider, to confirm it is valid. Payments are handled by Polar under its own privacy policy; we do not see your card details.
Anonymous usage statistics. To understand which features are used, the extension sends event names and counts (for example “card added”, “upgrade window shown”) together with a random identifier created at install, the extension version and the browser’s interface language, to PostHog (posthog.com). These events never include page addresses, titles or anything from the sites you open. As with any internet request, PostHog’s servers see your IP address when receiving an event. You can turn the statistics off at any time in the “⋯” menu on the canvas.

tabsurface.com sets no cookies and loads no analytics or third-party scripts. Cloudflare, which hosts it, processes your IP address to deliver the pages, as any web host does.
What we do not do
We do not sell data, show ads, or build profiles. We do not track your browsing.
