Where your files go and what we can see.
- Where do my files go?
- From your browser straight to a folder in your Google Drive. Nothing passes through us until you share a link.
- What can Capure see?
- Only the files it created in that folder. Nothing else in your Drive. Google calls this the drive.file permission, the smallest one it offers.
- What happens when I share?
- The same as in Drive. A capture is either private or public, open to anyone with the link. New captures get a link by default; turn that off in Settings and every capture starts private. capure.me only forwards files set to anyone with the link, and checks that with Google on every request. Make a capture private again at any time, here or in Drive.
- What do you keep?
- Nothing. No accounts, no database. One cookie keeps your Google session in this browser for 30 days; capure.me only trades it with Google for a fresh hour of access to your folder, and keeps no copy. Your browser keeps a copy of what it showed you, as on any site; Disconnect clears all of it.
- Can I check?
- Yes. Your browser's network tab shows every request: capure.me for the app, Google for your files, nothing else.
