Here’s what we collect, how permissions are used, and how your files stay safe.
Quick Summary
AirBamin moves files between your phone and PC over your local network. We don’t run ads or sell your data. Files move directly between your devices, never touching our servers.
We collect: Email and name for sign-in, and local app preferences.
We DO NOT collect: Your file contents, location, or microphone input.
Data We Process
Account Data: Email and display name to authenticate you and provide support.
Local Preferences: Settings stored on your device to remember your choices.
Connection Info: Local IP and port to facilitate direct device-to-device pairing.
Technical Logs: Anonymous download counts and update checks.
Permissions
Camera: Only to scan QR codes for pairing.
Files/Photos: Only to access the specific files you choose to send.
Local Network: To discover and connect to your PC on the same Wi-Fi.
Notifications: To keep file transfers running in the background.
We never ask for sensitive permissions like Microphone or Contacts. You can revoke permissions in settings anytime.
Security & Storage
Transfers happen locally (Device-to-Device) on your own network.
No cloud servers are used for file transfer or storage.
Account data is removed upon request; we don't keep copies of transferred files.
