Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-04-08 UTC

This Privacy Policy describes how BareProx processes data when you use the application. BareProx is deployed and operated by you (self-hosted). No telemetry is sent to the developers by default.

What BareProx Stores

  • Configuration data: Proxmox and NetApp connection details, settings, schedules.
  • Operational logs: Job history (backups, restores), warnings/errors, timestamps.
  • User accounts: Authentication and authorization data via ASP.NET Identity (if enabled).
  • Notifications: Email settings and recipients if you enable email notifications.

What BareProx Does Not Do

  • No built-in analytics or third-party tracking.
  • No automatic data sharing with external services, unless you configure features (e.g., email).

Cookies

BareProx may use cookies for authentication/session management. These are strictly necessary for the app to function. If you enable anti-forgery tokens (default), related cookies are also used to protect against CSRF.

Log & Diagnostic Data

Application and job logs are stored locally (e.g., database and/or rolling log files). You control retention policies. Logs may include VM names, storage names, cluster/host names, timestamps and error details.

Security

  • Credentials and secrets should be stored encrypted at rest (e.g., Data Protection APIs / your key vault).
  • Self-signed certificates can be generated in-app; consider replacing with a trusted certificate in production.
  • Restrict network access to the management UI and APIs.

Data Export & Deletion

As the operator, you control the database and file storage. You may export or delete data using your database tools. For user-initiated deletion requests, follow your organization’s policy and remove data from the underlying stores.

Third-Party Services

Certain optional features may contact external endpoints (e.g., GitHub raw content for update checks). These are opt-in and documented in the settings UI.
