Privacy Policy

At PassAutomate, Inc. ("PassAutomate," "we," "us," or "our"), we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our PassAutomate application ("Application").

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access the Application.

1. Information We Collect

1.2 Password Data

Important: PassAutomate is designed as a zero-knowledge application. This means:

• Your stored passwords, account credentials, and website data are encrypted using AES-256 encryption on your local device.
• The encryption key is derived from your master password, which is never transmitted to our servers in an unencrypted form.
• We do not have access to your stored passwords or the ability to view, access, or recover them.
• All password operations, including password generation, analysis, and automation processes, occur locally on your device.

When you use our Application, we may automatically collect certain information, including:

• Device information: Hardware model, operating system and version, unique device identifiers
• Log information: Application usage, crashes, system activity, and hardware settings

This information helps us improve our Application and provide better services to our users.

• Monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with our Application

3. Email Integration and Data Processing

PassAutomate's password automation features may require access to your email accounts to process password reset emails. Regarding this functionality:

• Email access credentials are stored locally and encrypted on your device
• Email processing happens locally on your device
• We do not store, process, or have access to your email content on our servers

4. Data Storage and Security

PassAutomate employs the following security measures to protect your information:

• AES-256 encryption for all sensitive data
• Zero-knowledge architecture ensuring your master password and unencrypted data never leave your device
• Secure memory handling to prevent password exposure in system memory
• Local-first processing with minimal data transmission

While we implement these advanced security measures, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
