Privacy Policy
Bookmark Library shows your Chrome bookmarks as a library on your New Tab page. It is built to keep your data on your own devices. The developer does not collect, receive, store, sell or share any of your data. The extension has no servers, no accounts, no analytics and no advertising.
What the extension reads
- Your bookmarks (titles, addresses, folders, date added and date last opened) — to draw the shelves and cards. It reads them through Chrome; it does not copy them anywhere else.
- Images you choose as shelf covers.
- Only if you turn previews on and allow site access:
- the web pages you have bookmarked, to read their preview image and description (the standard
og:imageand description tags). These requests are sent without your cookies. - a snapshot of a page you have bookmarked while it is open in your active tab. Pages that are not bookmarked are never captured.
- the web pages you have bookmarked, to read their preview image and description (the standard
- What you type in the search box — used to filter your bookmarks on the page. When you press Enter, it is passed to your own default search engine in Chrome (or opened as a web address), exactly as if you had typed it in the address bar.
