From what I understand, this calls out to their servers and they display a page? Would it not be more secure and safer to render this on some sort of local page? Don't really see the need for this information to go to a third party server.

The only exception to this is if you intentionally click on our 'share as a web page' feature that allows you to upload your list of tabs into a web page in order to share them with others. Tabs are never shared unless you specifically use the 'share as a web page' button.

(OneTab developer here): None of your tabs are sent to a third party server. It's all stored in HTML5 local storage. The only way the one-tab servers know about your tabs is if you click to 'share as a web page', which transmits your tabs to our servers to create a web page you can share with others.

  Thanks for the clarification, I should read more carefully. Apologies.

    I think this is a great idea, however I think you can make less ambiguous if you don't say "will not share". I think you are better saying...."will not transmit any information to our server". A lot of services don't intend to "share" things that are uploaded to their servers. Much easier decision to download/install if you unequivocally state that nothing will ever be Transmitted to the server. I personally am hesitant to install this just because it has the capability for me to accidentally upload my private info if I click the wrong setting.

  Your website talks about which information is not sent to OneTab. Which information is sent to OneTab?

    The OneTab servers are never accessed unless you click the "share as a web page" button. We don't know what tabs you have open, or what tabs you have put in your OneTab list.
