Privacy Policy
Draft — not yet in effect. Items in [BRACKETS] are still to be filled in.
Last updated: [DATE]. This policy covers the KubeDrive app, kubedrive.com and api.kubedrive.com, run by [LEGAL NAME] ("we").
The short version
- KubeDrive talks to your Kubernetes clusters directly from your Mac, with your own credentials. Nothing about your clusters — names, resources, logs, YAML, secrets — is sent to us.
- We only process data to sign you in and to give you the plan you are entitled to.
- We do not sell data, show tracking ads or use analytics in the app.
What the app connects to
- Your clusters, through your kubeconfig. To show status, it sends an anonymous
/versionrequest to each API server once a minute while the Clusters screen is open. - GitHub, to check for updates, only if you allow automatic checks or check by hand.
- api.kubedrive.com, only when you sign in, start a trial or renew a Pro or trial license (about once a day while signed in).
What we store on api.kubedrive.com
- Your email address, to identify your account and send sign-in links.
- A device identifier: a one-way keyed hash of your Mac's hardware ID, so a license works on the devices you signed in on. It cannot be turned back into the hardware ID.
- The name of your Mac as the app reports it (for example "MacBook Pro"), shown on the sign-in page and in sign-in emails.
- Sign-in records: when codes and links were created and used, and when each device was last seen. Codes, links and session tokens are stored only as hashes.
- Your plan: trials, and subscriptions with their status and renewal date.
Your IP address is used, in memory only, to limit how often sign-in requests can be made; we do not store it with your account.
Payments
Paddle (Paddle.com Market Ltd) sells KubeDrive Pro as merchant of record. Paddle collects and processes your payment and billing details under its own privacy policy; we receive your email address, your subscription's status and, where Paddle provides it, your country. We never see your card details.
Service providers
- DigitalOcean — servers and database (Frankfurt, Germany).
- Cloudflare — network and protection in front of our servers and this website.
- Resend — delivery of sign-in emails.
- Paddle — payments, as described above.
How long we keep data
Account data stays while your account exists. Expired sign-in codes and links are deleted automatically. [RETENTION PERIODS FOR LOGS AND DELETED ACCOUNTS].
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of your data, its correction or the deletion of your account at [CONTACT EMAIL]. [RIGHTS UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, E.G. GDPR, AND THE SUPERVISORY AUTHORITY].
