1. Introduction & Scope
This Privacy Policy governs the collection, processing, storage, and protection of personal data and technical telemetry by TKS HOSTIFY ("the Platform", "we", "us", or "our"). This policy applies to all registered users, guest visitors, software developers, and automated applications accessing our website, Web Dashboard, RESTful Gateway APIs, and global edge delivery CDN.
We are committed to operating in accordance with international privacy regulations, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The platform securely stores, processes and delivers user content through a managed cloud infrastructure designed for reliability, performance and scalability.
2. Information Collection & Data Scope
We minimize data collection to only what is strictly necessary to authenticate accounts, enforce security protocols, and deliver cloud storage services effectively:
| Data Category | Collected Data Elements | Legal Basis for Processing |
|---|---|---|
| Account Credentials | Full name, email address, password hash, account UUID, registration timestamp. | Contractual Performance (Account Creation) |
| Third-Party Identity Data | OAuth provider IDs (Google, GitHub) or Telegram Login tokens where enabled. | User Consent & Authentication |
| Developer API Telemetry | API Key hashes, request IP address, user-agent string, endpoint rate counts. | Legitimate Interest (Security & Rate Limiting) |
| Uploaded File Metadata | Original filename, generated file ID, MIME type, file size, upload timestamp. | Contractual Performance (File Hosting) |
| Technical Audit Logs | HTTP request method, status codes, referrer headers, edge server routing paths. | Legitimate Interest (Infrastructure Integrity) |
3. Purpose of Processing & Data Utilization
Your personal information and telemetry logs are processed strictly for legitimate operational purposes:
- Service Provisioning: Authenticating dashboard access, issuing API tokens, and storing files.
- Content Delivery: Serving embedded images, video streams, and download links via edge servers.
- Security & Threat Mitigation: Monitoring brute-force attacks, malware uploads, and unauthorized API abuse.
- Service Communications: Sending critical security notices, password reset links, or billing receipts.
4. Data Encryption & Security Information
The platform securely stores, processes and delivers user content through a managed cloud infrastructure designed for reliability, performance and scalability. We implement rigorous security controls:
Encryption In-Transit & At-Rest
All data transfers across public networks are encrypted using TLS 1.3 standard. Stored assets and database credentials are encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 protocols.
Access Isolation & Obfuscation
User files are accessed exclusively through randomized unique identifiers (`unique_file_id`), preventing directory traversal or public file enumeration.
5. International Compliance & User Data Rights
Under international privacy frameworks (GDPR & CCPA), users retain full control over their personal data:
- Right to Access: You may request copies of your stored account data and file telemetry at any time.
- Right to Rectification: You can update inaccurate profile information directly in your dashboard.
- Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may delete uploaded files or request permanent account termination.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You may request limitations on telemetry logging or email communication.
6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Does TKS HOSTIFY sell user data to third parties?
A: No. We never sell, rent, or lease personal information or file metadata to third-party advertisers or data brokers.
Q: How long is user data retained?
A: Data is retained strictly as long as your account remains active. Upon account deletion, personal records and files are permanently purged.
