Privacy Policy
1. Overview
FluxShare is a local-network application that runs entirely on your own devices. It does not use cloud servers, accounts, or remote databases. File transfers and clipboard synchronisation happen directly between paired devices on your local network. No data leaves your local network unless you explicitly transfer it to a paired device.
2. Data we collect
None. FluxShare does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data, usage analytics, telemetry, diagnostic information, or crash reports. The app runs locally and has no backend service.
3. Data transmitted by the app
The only data FluxShare transmits is:
- File contents and folder metadata that you explicitly send to a paired device.
- Clipboard text that you explicitly sync to a paired device.
- mDNS / Bonjour advertisements used to discover other FluxShare devices on the same local network.
All transfers are encrypted with TLS 1.3 using per-device ECDSA P-256 certificates generated locally on first run. Transfers happen raw, with no compression or caching at any layer.
4. Permissions
FluxShare requests only the permissions needed to provide its core functionality: local network access for device discovery and file transfer, storage and media access so you can pick files to send and save received files, and background-service and notification permissions so transfers can run reliably and show progress.
On some operating systems, the app may be required to declare a location permission solely because the OS gates Wi-Fi scanning behind it. FluxShare does not read, store, or share GPS or geographic location data.
5. Third-party services
FluxShare currently does not integrate with any third-party services, SDKs, advertising networks, or analytics providers. It has no dependencies that phone home.
The app may include advertising in a future version. If and when advertising is enabled, this Privacy Policy will be updated before ads are introduced, disclosing which ad networks are used and what data they may receive.
6. Children's privacy
FluxShare does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children under 13. The application processes no personal data.
7. Data retention & deletion
Configuration (paired device identities, user preferences) is stored only on your device. Uninstalling FluxShare removes all local state. There is no server-side data to delete.
8. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Substantive changes will also be noted in the release notes.
