Privacy
Folio keeps only what your boards need to work. There are no ads, no analytics, and nothing is sold to anyone.
What we keep
- Your account: your email and the name you choose. There is no password.
- Your shared folios: the cards, comments, photos, videos and files you put in them, and who can see them.
- Your devices: one key per device to keep you signed in. We store only its hash, never the key.
- When you ask for a code: your email and IP address for 24 hours, to stop abuse.
In the Mac app, folios you don't share stay on your Mac and never reach our servers.
Where it lives
Everything is stored with Cloudflare, which hosts Folio and sends the email with your code. The typeface comes from Google Fonts, so Google sees your IP address when a page loads. Nobody else receives your data.
In your browser
Folio keeps your key, language and theme in the browser, and one cookie that keeps you signed in for up to 400 days. There are no tracking or third-party cookies.
Deleting it all
“Your account” → “Delete account” removes your account, the folios you own and your place in other people's. It is immediate and can't be undone.
