Effective 2026-11-03; updated 2026-11-07 for version 0.2.5 (completed tasks, delete confirmation, backup and reminder-history clean-up) (sections marked "0.2.0" are new). Applies to the browser extension only. The product web page has its own privacy notice.
Website update, 2026-11-06: the product web page records basic visit events again (page, referrer, campaign tags, a random session ID, browser type; no cookies) and, only if you choose to leave it, your email for Pro launch news. This data is stored in a new database (Supabase, EU, Frankfurt) created on 2026-11-06; the page's own privacy notice gives the details. Between 2026-11-05 and 2026-11-06 the web pages recorded nothing, and data stored before 2026-11-05 was deleted with our old database. This does not change anything below about the extension, which still sends us no data.
No extension data is sent to us. Your tasks, calendar file and settings are stored only on your device. The optional most visited sites and bookmarks lists are read on your device to show them and are not stored. We (Venture Lab) receive nothing from the extension: no account, no analytics, no tracking, no ads, no remote code.
dt_backup_v1) is kept as a safety net for the update. It is never sent anywhere. From 0.2.5, deleting a task also deletes it from this copy, including when several new tabs change or delete tasks at the same moment; tasks you deleted on an earlier version leave the copy the next time a new tab opens. If clearing the copy after a confirmed deletion fails, a warning is shown. Cleanup is retried when a new tab opens; startup cleanup failures are currently silent. Once the copy is empty it is removed; only its creation timestamp is kept (dt_backup_spent_v1), so it is not created again. Editing a task does not change the copy. Uninstalling the extension deletes it.chrome.storage.local). It is not synced and never sent to us or anyone else.If you click "Show my bookmarks here" (or, from 0.2.0, tick "Bookmarks bar row" in Settings), Chrome asks you to allow the optional bookmarks permission. With it, the extension reads the items on your bookmarks bar inside your browser and shows them as links on the new tab. It never changes, copies or sends your bookmarks anywhere; it only remembers (in chrome.storage.local) that you turned the row on. Clicking "Hide bookmarks" (or unticking it in Settings) hides the row and removes the permission. If you don't turn it on, the extension has no access to your bookmarks.
If you tick "Most visited sites" in Settings, Chrome asks you to allow the optional topSites permission ("Read a list of your most frequently visited websites"). With it, each time the new tab opens the extension reads Chrome's list of your most visited sites inside your browser and shows them as links. The list is not stored and never sent anywhere. Unticking it hides the row and removes the permission. If you don't turn it on, the extension has no access to this list.
If you tick "Notify me when a task starts" in Settings, Chrome asks you to allow the optional notifications permission. The extension's background service worker then uses Chrome's alarms API to wake up at your next task's start time (or the 5 to 30 minutes before that you chose) and shows a notification with the task's title and time. You can also include events from your imported .ics file. Reminders are worked out from the data stored in your browser and shown by Chrome on your device; nothing is sent to us or anyone else. Unticking it stops reminders and removes the permission. The alarms permission itself does not show a warning and is not used while reminders are off.
The search box on the new tab sends what you type to your own default search engine (the one set in Chrome's settings), using Chrome's search API, and opens the results in a new tab. The extension does not read, store or change your search settings or your searches; the search engine you use handles your query under its own privacy policy. You can hide the search box in Settings.
The extension makes no network requests of its own. (Clicking one of your bookmarks or most visited sites simply opens that site in the tab, as Chrome's own new tab page does, and a search you type opens your default search engine.) Calendars are imported only from a file you choose on your device, and the file is read inside your browser. The extension has no host permissions and no content scripts, so it cannot read or change the web pages you visit.
We don't sell, share or transfer user data, because we don't receive any. We don't use it for advertising, credit-worthiness or any purpose other than showing your day in the new tab.
This version does not use Google APIs or Google sign-in, and does not connect to Google Calendar, Outlook or any other online calendar. (The search box uses Chrome's built-in search API, which is not a Google API.)
Day Timeline's use of information it handles, including the optional most visited sites and bookmarks lists read through Chrome APIs, adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. It is used only to show your plan and those rows on your new tab, is processed on your device, and is never sold, transferred or used for advertising.
