Privacy Policy
Last updated: 13 November 2026
In short: FastX Drive backs up your files to your own Google Drive. Files travel directly from your device to Google over an encrypted connection. We do not run any server that receives your files or personal data, and we do not collect, sell or share your data.
This policy applies to the FastX Drive app for Android and Windows ("the app") and this website.
1. Google account sign-in
You sign in with your Google account. The app receives your name, email address, profile photo and access tokens from Google. These are stored only on your device – in Android's encrypted secure storage, or encrypted with Windows DPAPI on PC – so that you stay signed in. They are never sent to us.
2. Access to your Google Drive
The app asks only for the drive.file permission. This means it can see and manage only the files and folders it created itself in your Drive. It cannot read the rest of your Drive.
FastX Drive's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
3. Files on your device
To back up the folders you choose, the app needs access to files on your device storage, including photos, videos, audio and documents in those folders. Files are uploaded directly from your device to your Google Drive over HTTPS. Downloaded files are saved on your device. Small thumbnails are cached on your device to show previews.
If you turn on Storage Saver, the app removes a local file only after confirming that the copy in Drive matches it exactly.
4. Nearby share
When you use Nearby share, files are sent directly between your own devices over your local Wi-Fi or hotspot, and only after the receiving device taps Accept. They never pass through the internet or any server of ours. On Android the camera is used only to scan the QR code shown by the other device; no images are stored or sent.
5. Share links
If you create a share link for a file, the app asks Google Drive to make that file viewable by anyone with the link. You can turn the link off at any time in the app.
6. Device permissions
- Storage / all files access – to read the folders you choose to back up and save files you download.
- Notifications – to show backup progress and alerts.
- Biometrics – for the optional app lock. Your fingerprint or face data never leaves your device; the app only receives a yes/no result from the system.
- Camera – only to scan a Nearby share QR code.
- Network and battery status – to run backups only on the network and battery conditions you choose.
- Foreground service – so a backup can continue while the app is in the background.
7. What we do not do
- No ads and no advertising ID.
- No analytics, tracking or crash-reporting services.
- No collection, sale or sharing of your data with anyone.
8. Deleting your data
Because we don't store any of your data, there is nothing on our side to delete. Everything the app creates lives in places you control:
- Backed-up files – delete them in the app (Files → select → Delete) or in Google Drive (the "FastX Drive" folder).
- Sign-in and settings on the device – sign out in Profile, or uninstall the app. On Windows, uninstalling also removes
%APPDATA%\Notesmedia\FastX Drive. - The app's access to your Google account – remove FastX Drive at myaccount.google.com/permissions.

9. Children
The app is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly handle data from children.
10. Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
