Privacy Policy

Introduction

Flux Client (“we,” “our,” or “the app”) is an open-source desktop Git GUI application. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how Flux Client handles your data.

Data Collection

Flux Client runs entirely on your local machine. We do not operate servers that collect user data. The app does not include any analytics, telemetry, tracking pixels, or third-party data collection services.

Local Data Storage

All data used by Flux Client is stored locally on your device:

• GitHub OAuth Tokens

  Stored securely in your operating system's native credential store (Windows Credential Manager, macOS Keychain, or Linux Secret Service). Tokens never leave your machine.

• Repository Information

  Paths to your local Git repositories are stored in a local configuration file on disk.

• User Preferences

  Settings like theme, layout, and UI preferences are saved locally.

• Account Profiles

  GitHub usernames and avatar URLs are cached locally for the multi-account sidebar.

Third-Party Services

Flux Client communicates directly with the following third-party services using your credentials:

• GitHub API

  To manage repositories, pull requests, issues, actions, and perform OAuth authentication.

• GitHub OAuth

  To authenticate your GitHub account. The OAuth flow uses our registered GitHub OAuth App to obtain access tokens.

All API requests are made directly from your machine to GitHub's servers. We do not proxy, intercept, or log any of these requests. Please refer to GitHub's Privacy Statement for information about how GitHub handles your data.

Open Source

Flux Client is open-source software licensed under the MIT License. You can inspect the complete source code at any time to verify our privacy practices: github.com/Lalla-Challa/Flux-Client-Dev

Children's Privacy

Flux Client is a developer tool and is not directed at children under the age of 13. Since we do not collect any data, no children's data is collected.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
