FileSide privacy policy

Last updated: 31 August 2026

FileSide is a Chrome extension. It does not have an account or a server. It does not collect, sell, or send your files or personal data.

What stays on your computer

Folder and file access stays in Chrome on your computer, using the File System Access API. Folder names are stored in IndexedDB on your device so you can reopen a connected folder. You can remove a folder or files in FileSide at any time.

Drop onto a webpage

If you allow “drop onto the page,” FileSide may read the chosen file in the side panel and send it to a script on the current website so a file field can be filled. That happens only after you allow it, and only for files you select.
