Last updated August 29, 2025

Introduction

This privacy notice for osvauld security solutions private limited ("we," "us," or "our") describes how and why we might process your information, reflecting our strong commitment to privacy and our open-source roots.

This policy is divided into two parts:
  1. Our Website (`osvauld.com`): This section applies to users of our website.
  2. Our Software (The Osvauld Application): This section applies to users of our decentralized, on-premise desktop software.

Questions or concerns? Reading this privacy notice will help you understand your privacy rights. If you do not agree with our policies, please do not use our website or software. If you have any questions, please contact us at osvauld@gmail.com.

Part 1: Privacy Policy for Our Website (osvauld.com)

This section describes the very limited information we process when you visit our website at `https://osvauld.com` or contact us directly.

What Information Do We Collect?

  • Server Log Information: When you visit our website, our web server may automatically log standard technical information. This includes your IP address (which can indicate your approximate geographical location), the pages you visited on our site, and the date and time of your visit. We also count the number of times the software is downloaded. This information is not used to identify you personally.
  • Information You Voluntarily Provide: We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you contact us via email, such as your name and email address.

How Do We Use Your Website Information?

We use the minimal server log data solely for our own internal purposes: to understand which countries our visitors are from and to count the total number of software downloads. This helps us ensure our website is functioning correctly. We do not use this data to track individual users or for advertising.

Privacy-Focused Analytics

We respect your privacy. Our website does not use cookies for tracking or advertising. We use GoatCounter, a privacy-focused analytics service that does not use cookies or track individual users. GoatCounter provides anonymous usage statistics to help us understand website performance and usage patterns. All data is processed anonymously and we cannot identify individual visitors.

Part 2: Privacy Policy for the Osvauld Software

This section applies to your use of our downloadable desktop software application (the "Software").

Zero-Knowledge and No Data Collection Guarantee

  • The Software is designed to be zero-knowledge. This means we, the creators of Osvauld, have no ability to access, view, or decrypt the credentials, secrets, or any other data you store within the Software ("User Data").
  • Your User Data is stored locally on your device or on infrastructure you control. It is never sent to our servers.
  • The Software does not collect or transmit any personal information, telemetry, or usage analytics back to us. We do not know who you are, how you use the software, or what you store in it.

Your Data, Your Responsibility

Since we do not have access to your User Data, we cannot help you recover a forgotten master password or restore lost data. You are solely responsible for the security and backup of your own data.

Updates to the Software

The Software may periodically check for new versions, which may involve a connection to our servers. This process does not transmit any personal information.

General Provisions (Applies to both Site and Software)

Do We Share Information?

  • We do not sell, rent, or share any personal information collected from our Website with any third party for any reason.
  • As we collect no personal information from the Software, there is nothing for us to share.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

We only keep the personal information collected from your Website visit (e.g., from an email inquiry) for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this notice, unless a longer period is required by law. Server logs are anonymized and may be kept for analytical purposes.

Do We Collect Information from Minors?

We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age through our Site or Software.

What Are Your Privacy Rights?

  • Regarding our Website, you may have rights under applicable law to request access to, or deletion of, the personal information we have collected from you (e.g., your email from an inquiry). To make such a request, please contact us.
  • Regarding the Software, since we hold none of your personal User Data, these rights are exercised by you directly. You can review, update, or delete your data at any time from within your own installation of the Software.
