Privacy Policy

Introduction

File → Save is built on a fundamental principle: your files are yours alone. This privacy policy explains our commitment to absolute privacy and zero data collection.

Unlike other apps that claim to be private, we've designed File → Save from the ground up to be physically incapable of accessing your data. This isn't just a promise—it's how we built the app.

What We Don't Collect

We don't collect anything. Specifically:

• No personal information
• No device identifiers
• No usage analytics
• No crash reports
• No location data
• No file names or metadata
• No encryption keys or passwords
• No backup data
• No behavioral data
• Absolutely nothing

How Your Data is Protected

Local Storage Only

All your files are stored exclusively on your device. We have no servers, no cloud infrastructure, and no way to access your data remotely. Your files never leave your device unless you explicitly export them.

Military-Grade Encryption

Every file is encrypted using ChaCha20-Poly1305, a encryption algorithm. Your passcode is never stored—it's used to derive an encryption key that only exists in your device's memory while the app is open.

Zero-Knowledge Architecture

Even if someone forced us to try to access your data (which has never happened), we couldn't. We don't have your encryption keys, we don't have access to your device, and we don't have any backdoors.

Third-Party Services

File → Save uses no third-party analytics, tracking, or data collection services. The only third-party integration is:

• Apple's App Store: For app distribution and optional in-app purchases. Apple's privacy policy applies to their services, not your encrypted files.

We don't use Google Analytics, Firebase, Crashlytics, or any other tracking service. Period.

Network Usage

File → Save works completely offline. The app only uses the network for:

• Checking your subscription status with Apple (if you have a premium subscription)
• No other network activity whatsoever

The app includes network detection to alert you if you're connected to a network while using it, as an extra privacy measure. This detection happens locally and doesn't send any data anywhere.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect any data, traditional privacy rights like access, correction, and deletion don't apply—there's nothing to access, correct, or delete on our end.

You have complete control over your data:

• Delete files anytime from within the app
• Export your encrypted backups
• Uninstall the app to remove all data
• Your data is yours, always

Data Breach? Impossible.

We can't have a data breach because we don't have your data. Your files exist only on your device, encrypted with keys we don't possess.

Even if someone hacked our website (which contains no user data), or somehow accessed our development systems (which contain no user data), they would find... no user data.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy, but our core principle will never change: we don't collect your data. Any updates will be to clarify our practices or reflect new features that maintain our zero-data-collection approach.

Updates will be posted here with a new "Last Updated" date.
