Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2 October 2026
This policy explains how Bitwell handles information for Auto Tab Cleaner when you use our website and browser extension.
Information processed locally
Auto Tab Cleaner is designed so that tab URLs, tab titles, browsing activity, parked tabs, workspaces, cleanup history and extension preferences can be processed and stored locally in your browser or Chrome's extension storage. We do not intend to transmit this browsing data to our subscription backend for advertising or profiling.
Account and subscription information
If you choose to purchase Pro, we may process a stable account identifier and, where needed, your email address to identify your account and restore your entitlement. Our backend may store identifiers supplied by our payment provider, subscription status, renewal/cancellation state and related timestamps.
Payments
Payment card details will be handled by our payment provider rather than stored by Auto Tab Cleaner. The payment provider's own privacy terms apply to information you submit through its checkout and account-management services.
Infrastructure
We use third-party infrastructure providers to operate the service. Technical request data such as IP addresses may be processed by those providers for security, routing, abuse prevention and service operation.
Retention
We aim to retain account and billing records only for as long as needed to provide the service, meet legal/accounting obligations, resolve disputes and prevent abuse. Local extension data remains under the controls provided by your browser and the extension.
Your choices and rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights relating to personal information we hold about you, including access, correction or deletion. Contact us using the details on the Support page.
Children
Auto Tab Cleaner is not intentionally directed at children and is intended for users who can lawfully enter into the relevant agreement in their jurisdiction.
Cookies and similar technologies
Bitwell uses strictly necessary storage for requested website functions, security and to remember your cookie choices. Optional storage is not enabled unless you choose it in Cookie settings.
- bitwell_cookie_consent (Bitwell, necessary, up to 180 days): remembers whether you allowed or rejected optional analytics and referral storage so we can respect your choice.
- Google Analytics cookies such as _ga and _ga_* (Google Analytics, optional): used only after you allow Analytics to help us understand website visits and usage. Google may process technical information associated with analytics requests under its own terms and privacy information.
- bitwell_ref (Bitwell, optional, up to 90 days): if you arrive through a valid affiliate or referral link and allow Referral attribution, this stores the referral code so we can attribute a later eligible subscription to the referring affiliate. It is not set when referral storage is rejected.
You can accept all optional cookies, reject them, or choose Analytics and Referral attribution separately. You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings. Withdrawing Analytics consent also removes the first-party Google Analytics cookies that Bitwell can remove from this site.
Changes
We may update this policy as the product develops. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a revised date.
