TabSignal Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 11, 2026

Publisher: Hitanshu Gala

TabSignal is a browser extension that shows whether a response is generating or ready on supported AI chat tabs.

Information TabSignal processes

On supported pages at chatgpt.com, gemini.google.com, chat.deepseek.com, and grok.com, TabSignal checks the page interface for the site's response-generation control. It uses that interface state to update the tab's favicon indicator. This check is performed locally in your browser. TabSignal does not read conversation text, prompts, or responses.

TabSignal stores your master and per-service on/off preferences in your browser's local extension storage. These settings remain on your device and can be changed in the extension popup.

Sharing and transmission

TabSignal does not send page interface state, conversation data, or settings to the publisher or to third parties. The extension does not contain analytics, advertising, or remote-code services.

Permissions

• storage saves your indicator preferences locally so they persist between browser sessions.
• The packaged content script runs only on the four supported sites listed above so it can detect response-generation state and update the favicon.

Changes to this policy

If TabSignal's data practices change, this policy will be updated before those changes take effect. The date above indicates when this policy was last revised.
