Privacy Policy

Software: PortSync Engine | Last updated: March 6, 2026

1. Introduction

PortSync Engine ("PortSync," "we," "us," or "our") is a self-hosted portfolio engine developed by Praveen Ojha. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you purchase, download, and use the PortSync software, or visit our website at praveenojha.com/portsync.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Purchase Information

When you purchase a PortSync license through Gumroad, Paddle, or offline purchase, we receive your name, email address, and transaction details. Payment processing is handled by Gumroad or Paddle- we do not store your credit card or financial information. For offline purchases, payment details are handled directly and not stored digitally on our systems.

2.2 License Verification Data

For license verification purposes, we store your generated license key, email address, and the domain your license is locked to. This data is used solely to verify your license during container activation and is not used for any other purpose. We do not share this data with any third parties.

2.3 Self-Hosted Data

PortSync is a self-hosted application. Once deployed on your server, all data- including App Store listings, blog posts, newsletters, support tickets, user content, and AI-generated content- is stored exclusively on your own infrastructure. We have no access to, and do not collect, any data from your self-hosted instance.

2.4 AI API Keys

If you use the BYOL (Bring Your Own LLM) feature, your API keys for OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic, or any local LLM are stored in your own database (Firebase, Supabase, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB). We never transmit or store your API keys on our servers.

2.5 App, Web & Chrome Store Data

PortSync pulls publicly available data from the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, Chrome Web Store, and direct Web App links (app icons, screenshots, videos, descriptions, privacy policy links) at your direction. This data is fetched by your server and stored in your database. We do not proxy, cache, or retain any of this data.

2.6 Support Requests

If you contact us for technical support via the support form on our website, we collect your name, email, and message content to respond to your inquiry.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • To deliver your license key after purchase
  • To provide customer support and respond to inquiries
  • To send important product updates (security patches, major releases)- you can opt out anytime
  • To verify license validity during container activation

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We share data only with:

  • Gumroad- for payment processing and license delivery
  • Paddle- as an alternative payment processor for license delivery
  • Law enforcement- only when legally required

5. Data Security

Since PortSync is self-hosted, the security of your application data is under your control. We recommend using HTTPS, strong database credentials, and keeping your Docker image updated. For purchase-related data processed through Gumroad or Paddle, industry-standard encryption and security measures apply.

6. Cookies

Our website may use essential cookies for functionality (e.g., Gumroad checkout overlay). We do not use tracking cookies, analytics pixels, or advertising trackers on the PortSync landing page.

7. Children's Privacy

PortSync is a developer tool and is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal information we hold about you (limited to purchase, license verification, and support records). Contact us at portsync@praveenojha.com for any such requests.

9. No Guarantee

PortSync is provided "as is" without any warranty or guarantee of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Software will be error-free, uninterrupted, or meet your specific requirements. Use of the Software is entirely at your own risk. See our Terms of Service for full warranty and liability disclaimers.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of PortSync after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
