LOCAL-FIRST ARCHITECTURE

Privacy by design.

Trax gives you real, meaningful control over what stays local to your computer — without making false or impossible marketing claims.

On-Device Storage Boundary

YOUR DEVICE · YOUR TRAX PROFILE

Browsing state is retained strictly within your local Windows user account (%APPDATA%\Trax).

100% On-Device

Local Profile Isolation

All browsing history, cookies, session caches, and bookmarks are written strictly to your local Windows user directory (%APPDATA%\Trax). No cloud syncing, no remote database backups.

Volatile Memory

Private Windows

Private browsing sessions store state exclusively in volatile RAM. The moment you close the window, cookies, history, and cache tokens are permanently zeroed out.

Zero Auto-Grant

Granular Permission Controls

Microphone, camera, location, and notification access require explicit per-origin confirmation. Permissions can be viewed and revoked with one click from the Omnibox padlock.

Storage Isolation

Cookie Partitioning

Website localStorage and cookie jars are strictly partitioned by top-level domain origin, preventing third-party tracking scripts from correlating sessions across the web.

Socket Filtering

Trax Shield Network Defense

Trax Shield intercepts known analytics beacons, telemetry endpoints, and fingerprinting scripts before network sockets connect, keeping unwanted requests off your machine.

Windows DPAPI

Local Password Protection

Saved credentials never leave your PC. They are encrypted using Windows operating system cryptography (DPAPI) and tied strictly to your authenticated Windows login.

IndexedDB / Caches

Website Storage Boundaries

Service worker caches and client databases are sandboxed per workspace profile. Your Work profile cannot read or detect storage from your Personal or Dev workspaces.

Transparent Checks

Minimal Telemetry

Trax does not log keystrokes, form fields, URLs, or search terms. Background update checks query https://trax.blue/api/releases/latest exchanging only version and OS architecture.

Truthful Commitments

We build real software tools rather than selling magical security claims.
