Tab Rotator is a browser extension that rotates between tabs on unattended displays and keeps those displays working.
Nothing. Tab Rotator has no analytics, telemetry, crash reporting or advertising, and the developer receives no data from your browser.
Your settings, rotation state and health log (a record of rotation events such as “tab crashed, reloaded”) are stored in your browser with chrome.storage.local. They never leave the device unless you set up one of the features below. Uninstalling the extension deletes them.

If you turn on page-text comparison for a frozen-page rule, it reads a fingerprint (hash) of the visible text of the sites you approve, once a minute; the text itself is never stored or sent anywhere.
