    <h1>Privacy Policy</h1>
    <p class="updated">Last updated: 7 October 2026</p>
  </header>

  <p class="lead">Folda does not collect, sell, or share your personal data. Your files stay on your device and the storage you choose. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no advertising in this version.</p>

  <div class="card">
    <h2>Who we are</h2>
    <p>Folda is a private file manager for iPhone and iPad. This policy explains what the app does — and does not do — with your information. It applies to the Folda app published on the Apple App Store.</p>
  </div>

  <h2>Information we collect</h2>
  <p><strong>None.</strong> Folda has no user accounts and no sign-in. We do not collect analytics, usage statistics, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, or crash reports on our own servers. We have no servers that receive your data.</p>

  <h2>Your files</h2>
  <ul>
    <li>Your files, folders, and their contents remain on your device or on the storage you explicitly authorize (for example a USB drive, SD card, iCloud Drive, or a WebDAV server you connect).</li>
    <li>Folda does <strong>not</strong> upload your files to any server operated by the developer.</li>
    <li>The app can only access its own storage and the folders and providers you authorize through the system file picker. iOS does not allow the app to browse all of your device's storage.</li>
  </ul>

  <h2>Locked folders and encryption</h2>
  <p>Folda's locked folders use <strong>AES‑256‑GCM</strong> encryption performed on your device. The folder key is derived from the password you choose; if you turn on Face ID or Touch ID for a folder, a device-only copy of its key is kept in the device Keychain behind device authentication. Unlocking lets Folda create a temporary readable copy for an action you choose, such as viewing, editing, or sharing. An ordinary file you export is no longer protected by the folder's encryption at its destination.</p>
  <p>The developer cannot reset a folder password or recover files from a locked folder whose password is lost. Deleting Folda removes the data it stores in its own app storage; files in locations you connected (for example a USB drive or iCloud Drive) stay where they are.</p>

  <h2>Temporary files and unsaved edits</h2>
  <p>Viewing or editing a protected file may require a decrypted working copy in Folda’s private storage. Active text-editing working copies use iOS complete file protection and are removed after successful completion or explicit discard where applicable. If the device cannot write the newest text revision, Folda may retain it temporarily in process memory and warn you to keep the app open; closing or terminating the app can lose that memory-only revision.</p>

  <h2>Servers and local-network transfers you choose</h2>
  <p>Folda can connect to WebDAV and FTP servers you specify. Saved passwords use the device Keychain. Files and authentication data travel between your device and the server you choose; they do not pass through a developer-operated Folda server. WebDAV connections require HTTPS. Standard FTP is unencrypted and should be used only on a private, trusted network.</p>
  <p>When you enable Wi‑Fi Transfer, Folda runs an authenticated HTTP service on your local network. HTTP is not encrypted, so keep the session link private, use only a trusted network, and stop the session when finished. Unlocking a protected folder for a web session allows that authorized browser to access its readable contents. iOS may suspend the service in the background.</p>
  <p>When you share or export a file or backup, the app, recipient, or storage provider you choose receives that data under its own privacy practices. Remote images and mathematical typesetting in Markdown documents may contact the image host or the MathJax CDN to display the document.</p>

  <h2>Website video downloads</h2>
  <p>The first App Store release (1.0) does not include a website-video browser, website-video discovery, or a website-media downloader. Playback of supported files you already have remains available.</p>

  <h2>Device permissions</h2>
  <p>Folda asks for certain permissions only to power features you use, and only for the item you choose:</p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Photos</strong> — to import photos and videos you select, and to save items you choose back to your library.</li>
    <li><strong>Camera</strong> — to scan paper documents into PDFs you keep in your files.</li>
    <li><strong>Face ID / Touch ID</strong> — to unlock App Lock and locked folders on this device.</li>
    <li><strong>Local Network</strong> — to connect to servers you choose and provide browser-based Wi‑Fi Transfer on your network.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>Data obtained through these permissions is used locally for the stated purpose and is not transmitted to the developer.</p>

  <h2>Purchases</h2>
  <p>Folda offers an optional one‑time in‑app purchase (Folda Pro). Purchases are handled entirely by Apple through the App Store. The developer never receives your payment card or billing details. Apple's handling of purchase data is governed by <a href="https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/">Apple's Privacy Policy</a>.</p>

  <h2>Children</h2>
  <p>Folda does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children. The app is rated for general audiences.</p>

  <h2>Data sharing &amp; sale</h2>
  <p>We do not share or sell your information, because we do not collect it.</p>

  <h2>Changes to this policy</h2>
  <p>If this policy changes in a future version, the updated policy will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.</p>
