Privacy Policy

1. Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy explains how ShellStrong Technologies Pvt. Ltd. ("ShellStrong Technologies," "we," "us") handles information in connection with the filetohash.com website and the FileToHash Windows desktop application ("FileToHash," the "Application"). It does not apply to third-party services you may use alongside FileToHash, such as your operating system, antivirus software, or the Microsoft Store.

2. Information handled by the application

FileToHash is designed to process files and folders locally on your Windows device.

• File and folder contents you select for hashing are read from your device to compute hash values. They are not uploaded to ShellStrong Technologies or any third party by the Application.
• Hashing results, session logs, and exported reports (PDF/CSV) are stored locally on your device, in locations you choose or that you configure in Settings.
• Application-level security event logs (see Features) are stored locally and are used to help you review what happened within your own installation — they are not transmitted to us.

If a future version of FileToHash introduces optional connected features (for example, license activation or update checks), this policy will be updated in advance to describe what limited data, if any, that involves.

3. Information collected by this website

The filetohash.com website is a static site. It does not use tracking cookies or behavioral advertising by default. Depending on your hosting configuration, standard web server logs (such as IP address, browser type, and requested page) may be recorded temporarily for security and reliability purposes.

If you use the Contact form on the Support page, we collect the name, email address, subject, and message you choose to provide, in order to respond to your inquiry.

4. How information is used

• To respond to support and contact requests you submit.
• To maintain the security, availability, and integrity of the website.
• To meet legal, regulatory, or accounting obligations.

5. Sharing of information

We do not sell personal information. We may share limited information with service providers who help us operate the website or respond to inquiries (for example, an email or hosting provider), under confidentiality obligations, or where required by law.

6. Data retention

Contact form submissions are retained only as long as needed to address your inquiry and for a reasonable period afterward for record-keeping. Files, folders, hash results, and logs generated by the Application remain under your control on your own device, and are retained or deleted according to your own actions and settings.

7. Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information we hold. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Children's privacy

FileToHash and this website are intended for professional and business use and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the website or Application after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

10. Contact us

Questions about this policy can be sent through the Support / Contact page.
