Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
Short version: Daybreak does not collect, store, or share any of your personal data. Everything stays on your device.
Overview
Daybreak is a Chrome extension that replaces your new tab page with a focused productivity dashboard. This policy explains what data the extension uses and where it goes.
Data stored on your device
Daybreak stores the following information locally in your browser using localStorage. None of this data is ever transmitted to any server operated by the developer.
- Your display name and preferences (clock format, temperature unit, background style)
- Daily focus intention and gratitude entry
- Pomodoro timer session state
- Brain health score, XP points, and level
- Daily mood check-in emoji
- Water nudge timestamp
- 2048 game state and high score
- Quick links you have saved
- Tutorial completion status
External API calls
Daybreak makes outbound requests to the following third-party services to power specific features. Your data is not retained by the developer through any of these calls.
- Open-Meteo (open-meteo.com) — fetches current weather conditions using your approximate coordinates. Open-Meteo is a free, open-source weather API that does not require an account or track users.
- OpenStreetMap Nominatim (nominatim.openstreetmap.org) — converts your coordinates into a human-readable city name for display. Subject to the OpenStreetMap Foundation Privacy Policy.
- Picsum Photos (picsum.photos) — serves random background photos when the photo background option is enabled. No personal information is sent.
- Google Fonts — loads the Cormorant Garamond and Inter typefaces for display purposes. Subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
Location
If you enable the weather feature, Daybreak requests your browser's geolocation to determine your city and fetch local weather. Your coordinates are passed directly to Open-Meteo and Nominatim and are not stored by the extension or by the developer. You can deny the location prompt — the weather card will not appear.
No tracking or analytics
Daybreak contains no analytics libraries, tracking pixels, advertising networks, or third-party monitoring of any kind. The developer has no visibility into how you use the extension.
No accounts
Daybreak does not require you to create an account, log in, or provide any personal information to use any feature.
Data sharing
The developer does not sell, rent, or share your data with any third party for any purpose.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes in a meaningful way, the updated date at the top of this page will reflect that. Continued use of the extension constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
