Haven is a browser extension that replaces your new tab page. We do not run servers for it, and we do not collect, sell or share your personal data.

Data stored on your device

Haven stores your settings, custom themes, notes, reminders, uploaded wallpaper and cached weather in your browser’s local extension storage. This data never leaves your device through Haven and is removed when you uninstall the extension. Your bookmarks stay in Chrome’s own bookmark store, which Haven reads and edits only when you ask it to.

Browser data Haven reads

• Bookmarks, open tabs, history, downloads, recently closed sessions, most-visited sites and site icons are read locally to display them and to power search suggestions. This information is not transmitted anywhere.
• Haven changes your data only when you take an action: for example editing a bookmark, closing a tab, removing a history entry or erasing a download from the list.

Network requests

• Weather: if you enable the weather widget, the city name you search for, or the coordinates you choose to share, is sent to Open-Meteo (open-meteo.com) to get a forecast. Haven does not send any other information with these requests.
• Photo wallpapers: if you choose the daily or random photo wallpaper, your browser requests an image from picsum.photos, which can see your IP address.
• Image URL wallpaper: if you set an image URL, your browser requests that image from the site you specified.
• Ask AI and search: Haven sends nothing itself. It opens the service you chose (for example chatgpt.com or google.com) in your browser with your text in the link, and that service’s own privacy policy applies from there.

If you don’t use these features, Haven makes no network requests.

What we don’t do

We don’t use analytics, advertising or tracking. We don’t use or transfer user data for purposes unrelated to Haven’s single purpose. We don’t sell or transfer user data to third parties, and we don’t use it for creditworthiness or lending decisions.

Your control

You can export, reset or delete your data in Settings → Data, or remove everything by uninstalling Haven.
