KanBananza privacy policy

Last updated: 16 October 2026

KanBananza is a browser extension (Chrome, Edge and Firefox) that turns your new tab page into kanban boards. It is built to keep your information on your own computer.

What stays on your computer

Your boards, cards, settings, backups, images, activity history for insights and everything else you create are stored only in your browser, using the browser's extension storage. KanBananza has no account, no server and no analytics. We never see, collect, sell or share your boards or how you use them.

If you turn on the passcode lock, your boards, backups and card images are encrypted on your computer. Your passcode is never stored or sent anywhere.

When KanBananza uses the internet

Only for Full Bananza, and only with Lemon Squeezy, our payment provider:

  • Activating or deactivating Full Bananza: when you press Activate or Deactivate, KanBananza sends your licence key, and a label naming the computer type (for example "KanBananza on MacIntel"), to Lemon Squeezy to check the key. Your browser asks your permission first.
  • Checking the key: KanBananza sends the licence key and this computer's activation ID to Lemon Squeezy to check the key is still valid: about once every 30 days for the yearly plan, and about once every 3 months for lifetime. This stops a shared key from working once it has been switched off.

Nothing else is sent: never your boards, cards or settings.

When you buy Full Bananza, the purchase itself (your name, email address and payment details) is handled by Lemon Squeezy under its own privacy policy, not by KanBananza.

Permissions

  • Storage: to save your boards and settings in your browser.
  • Alarms and notifications: for focus timer and due-date reminders, daily backups and the backup reminder.
  • Context menus and active tab: for "Add to KanBananza" when you right-click a page, and the "current tab" button in the popup. Pages are read only when you use these.
  • Favicon: to show website icons for links on cards, from the browser's own cache (Chrome and Edge only).
  • api.lemonsqueezy.com (asked for only when you activate Full Bananza): to check your licence key, and for the yearly plan to confirm the subscription about once a month.

Your choices

You can export all of your data at any time (Settings → Export / import), and removing the extension deletes everything it stored.
