If you have configured Chrome with a Google account, on Linux - for me, it does ask me for password on restart. I am assuming the password is for decrypting the passwords it stores in browser's "manage passwords".
Overall, I think either:
a. Chrome can use that account password for decrypting the other senstive information too.
b. or it can integrate with keychain of operation system. If I am not wrong, each time a new application accesses keychain of OS, OS prompts for user's password.
