Sync your browser data without giving it away

Browser sync is convenient: your bookmarks and logins follow you from one computer to the next. But with most browsers, that data lives on the browser maker’s servers, and you have to trust them with it.

Ghost Browser’s Private Data Sync works differently. Your data is stored wherever you choose, and it never touches Ghost Browser’s servers.

Store it where you want

• A USB drive, when you want it physically in your hands.
• A cloud folder such as Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive.
• Your own or your company’s server, for full control.

Encrypted with your key

Data is encrypted with AES-256, and only you hold the key. Your cloud provider can’t read it, and neither can we.

What it syncs

• Bookmarks and cookies, so you stay signed in across computers.
• Workspaces, so your saved tab sets and accounts are there on every machine.
• Identities, so each set of logins comes with you.
• Proxy setups.

How it works

Once it’s set up, syncing is automatic. With Dropbox, for example, install Dropbox on each computer and Ghost Browser syncs through that folder.

Using selective sync? If your cloud app only keeps some files on the computer (OneDrive Files On-Demand or Dropbox Selective Sync), make sure the sync folder is always kept there, or syncing can fail.

Private by default

Private Data Sync is off until you turn it on, and it doesn’t need an account with us. We make money by selling software, not by collecting your data.
