Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 1, 2026

Overview

Hermes Backup ("we", "us") operates an automated backup service. This policy explains what personal data is handled and how.

Data we process

We process the configuration you provide for your backup scope (protected directories and schedule), and the content of the archives created from them. Archives are encrypted and stored in your own Google Drive account.

How data is used

Data is used solely to create, store, verify, and restore your backups. We do not sell or rent personal data.

Data storage & security

Backups are encrypted using AES-256 and uploaded to the Google Drive location you authorize. Access to the service is limited to the authorized account owner.

Data retention

Retention follows your configured backup schedule (e.g. daily slots). You may disable or cancel the service at any time.

Contact

For privacy questions, contact the account owner through the service's normal support channel.
