PRIVACY, IN PLAIN WORDS · 5 OCTOBER 2026
Your files stay
at your desk.
What is processed locally
File parsing, product matching, edits, unit conversion and report generation happen in your browser. Tabel’s comparison code does not send uploaded files, row contents, filenames, prices or manual decisions to a server. It makes no AI requests. The optional currency reference reads a dated public ECB snapshot hosted with the website; your inputs are not sent to the ECB.
What the website receives
Loading Tabel requests website assets from Cloudflare, our hosting provider. Those requests can expose ordinary connection information such as your IP address, requested URL, browser details and time to the hosting infrastructure. This is not an anonymity service. Fonts, images and application libraries are self-hosted.
Storage, cookies and deletion
Tabel’s local comparison tools do not set advertising or analytics cookies. Unsaved comparison data stays in tab memory and clears on refresh or close. Only an explicit Save on this device, Save mapping profile or Restore backup action writes user data to IndexedDB in this browser profile. Saved projects contain original supplier cells, file and sheet names, mappings, edits, matching decisions and saved versions. Profiles contain column headings and declared defaults. There is no account, cloud sync or server backup.
Other people using this browser profile may access saved projects. In Saved projects & profiles, Delete removes one saved item and Delete all saved data removes all saved projects and profiles. Clear this comparison only clears the open tab; it does not delete saved copies. Browser site-data cleanup also removes saved copies. Browser caches, memory, swap, crash recovery and extensions are governed by your device and browser. Storage belongs to the exact site address: a workers.dev preview and a custom domain have separate saved data. Use backup and restore when moving between addresses.
Downloaded reports stay wherever your browser saves them. Reports can contain original source rows and business information. Share them deliberately and remove them using your normal file-management tools when no longer needed.
Advertising, cookies and your choices
Advertising is currently off. Tabel does not load Google advertising scripts or create Google advertising cookies in this version.
When advertising is enabled, Google and its advertising partners may receive your IP address, page URL and browser or device information, and may use cookies or other identifiers to deliver, measure and personalize ads where permitted. Google’s published messages collect applicable European consent and US state opt-out choices. Rejecting or withdrawing consent does not restrict access to Tabel’s free tools.
Use Privacy and cookie choices in the footer to reopen the applicable Google controls. From an ad-free page, this takes you to the public homepage. The European control reopens consent choices; the US control opens the applicable opt-out dialog. Browser settings can remove existing cookies.
Tabel does not pass comparison files, supplier rows, prices or saved projects to the advertising integration. Ad code is excluded from private tool pages and reports. Public pages with URL query parameters do not load it.
Equipment links and your shortlist
Links open Amazon.com with our fixed US Associates tag. Amazon may use its own cookies and tracking after a click. Only the Tabel site origin is sent as the referrer, without page path or search text. Search and shortlist stay in page memory and clear on reload. Supplier files and tool inputs do not determine products or enter affiliate links. Optional usage counts include only a fixed affiliate-click event with no product ID or search query.
Optional usage counts
Only after you choose Allow usage counts, Tabel sends fixed event and tool names, public page categories, language, screen-size class, duration ranges and fixed error categories to its own Cloudflare endpoint. We store daily aggregate counts, not individual event histories. We do not send files, filenames, supplier data, prices, typed or pasted text, search terms, URL query strings or fragments, raw referrers, IP addresses, country, credentials or visitor identifiers into the usage dataset. No session replay or fingerprinting is used.
The private owner report shows opted-in interactions, not unique people or sessions. It is incomplete when people decline, use privacy signals, block requests or exceed protective limits. Active aggregates expire after 330 days; Cloudflare rollback copies may retain them for up to 30 more days. QA counts are separate and removed from the active dataset after seven days. No historical traffic is backfilled.
Your allow/decline choice and its expiry are stored in this browser for 180 days, without a tracking identifier; the owner-exclusion preference lasts until cleared. Use Usage data choices in any footer to withdraw. Withdrawal stops future sends across open tabs; previously aggregated counts cannot be linked to you or individually removed. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track override Allow. Declining does not affect free tools, saves or exports. Cloudflare still processes normal connection metadata to serve and protect the website; this is not an anonymity service.
Source integrity
Imported formulas are not executed. Report cells are written as values, and potential spreadsheet-formula text in CSV exports is escaped. These protections do not replace reviewing supplier files or securing your device.
