Your favorite links.

GET STARTED
Make LinkVault yours
Link names and full URLs stay in this browser unless you choose account sync. Their domains are sent to Google for favicons.
A quick privacy note. Guest link names and full URLs are stored on this device. Account mode sends your username, password during registration or sign-in, and link names/URLs to LinkVault for sync; the server stores a password hash. To show favicons, LinkVault sends each saved site's domain (not its full page URL) to Google. Read the Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 11, 2026
This policy explains how AB LinkVault handles information in the AB LinkVault website and Chrome extension. LinkVault is a website-shortcut manager: it lets you save names and web addresses so you can open them later.
Information LinkVault handles
- Saved links: link names and URLs you add. Guest links stay in the local browser or extension storage and are not sent to LinkVault's API. If you use an account, saved links are sent to the API and stored with your account so they can sync between your installations.
- Favicon requests: to display link icons, LinkVault sends the hostname (domain) from each saved URL to Google's favicon service, including for guest links. It does not send the full URL, path, query string, or link name to that service. Google receives the request and may process the hostname and technical request information, such as your IP address and request time, under its own privacy practices.
- Account information: the username and password you submit when registering or signing in. The API stores your username and a bcrypt password hash, not your original password. The extension and website keep an authentication token in local browser storage while you are signed in.
- Preferences: the selected light or dark theme is stored locally.
- Technical request information: the API host or its infrastructure providers may process connection and request metadata (such as IP address, time, and requested endpoint) to deliver and protect the service. The application does not add advertising or analytics tracking.
How information is used
Account information is used to create and authenticate your account. Saved link names and URLs are used to display and sync your shortcuts. The saved URL's hostname is sent to Google's favicon service to retrieve its icon. Technical request information may be used for service operation, troubleshooting, and abuse prevention.
Storage and service providers
Guest links, locally cached account usernames and links, theme preferences, and the signed-in session token are stored in the browser's local storage or Chrome extension local storage. Account usernames, password hashes, and account links are also stored by the LinkVault API in its database. Hosting, database, and infrastructure providers may process information as needed to provide these services. LinkVault does not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.
Sharing and external websites
Saving a link does not contact the linked website itself. To show favicons, LinkVault makes a request to Google's favicon service using only the saved URL's hostname; it does not send the full URL, path, query string, or link name to Google for this feature. Google may receive your IP address, request time, and other standard request metadata and handles those requests under its own privacy practices. When you choose to open a saved link, your browser navigates to that website, which then handles your visit under its own privacy practices. LinkVault does not load analytics scripts or use saved links for advertising.
Retention and deletion
Guest data remains in your browser until you remove it or clear that browser's extension/site data. You can delete your account and its cloud-synced links from the web app or extension while signed in. Account information remains in the service while the account is active. If you cannot sign in, email [email protected] with your LinkVault username to request help. Email is used only to respond to the request; LinkVault does not require an email address to create an account. Deleted data may remain in backups, if backups are enabled, until those backups expire under the configured retention schedule. Deleting the extension or clearing browser data does not delete server-side account data.
Security
Production API traffic should use HTTPS. Passwords are hashed before they are stored. No method of internet transmission or storage can be guaranteed completely secure; keep your password private and sign out on devices you do not control.
