Privacy Policy

Overview

SecShare is a self-hosted file sharing application. This privacy policy describes how your data is handled by this specific deployment.

Data We Collect

• Account information — email address, display name, and authentication credentials if you register an account.
• Uploaded files — files you upload and associated metadata (file names, sizes, timestamps).
• Session data — an encrypted session cookie is set to maintain your login state.
• Audit logs — security-relevant actions are logged with hashed IP addresses for abuse prevention.

How Data Is Protected

• All files are encrypted at rest using XChaCha20-Poly1305 with keys sealed by a hybrid ML-KEM-1024 + P-384 vault.
• All database fields are encrypted or hashed before storage.
• IP addresses are one-way hashed — the original IP is never stored.
• Session cookies are encrypted with post-quantum cryptography.

Data Retention

• Uploaded files are retained until they expire or are manually deleted.
• Audit logs are retained according to the configured retention period.
• You may delete your account and all associated data from the Profile page.

Third Parties

This is a self-hosted application. Your data remains on this server unless the administrator has configured external services (S3 storage, SMTP email, Google OAuth). No data is sold or shared with advertisers.
