PRIVACY

Clear, product-specific privacy.

What stays local, what third-party services may process, and the choices available to you.

Last updated: 17 October 2026. Platform features and test configurations can differ.

PhoneDrop

PhoneDrop transfers files directly between devices that can reach each other on the same local network. Jenux Labs does not operate a file-transfer relay and does not receive the contents of your transfers.

Advertising, consent and purchases on Android

The free Android experience uses Google Mobile Ads. Google and its advertising partners may process information such as advertising identifiers, device information, approximate location inferred from network information, ad interactions and diagnostics according to your region, consent choices and Google’s policies. PhoneDrop uses Google’s User Messaging Platform to request and store applicable privacy choices before requesting ads.

PhoneDrop Pro removes advertising. In-app purchase status is handled through Google Play Billing; Jenux Labs does not receive your payment-card details. Google Play may provide the app with purchase status and transaction identifiers needed to activate or restore Pro.

You can revisit available advertising privacy choices from PhoneDrop Settings. You can also manage advertising settings through Android and your Google account. See Google’s Privacy Policy.

Desktop apps

The Windows and macOS versions do not display advertising. They use local-network discovery, pairing and direct transfer features and keep their PhoneDrop preferences and trust records on the device.

Website

This website does not provide user accounts or upload forms and does not display advertising. Normal hosting and security infrastructure may process technical request data such as IP address, browser information, requested pages and timestamps to deliver and protect the site and its downloads.

PhoneNAS and the Mac helper

PhoneNAS operates an SMB file server on your local network. It accesses only folders and attached storage that you explicitly select through Android’s system storage picker. File contents and SMB traffic travel directly between your devices; Jenux Labs does not operate a relay and does not receive your files.

The Android release uses Google Mobile Ads and Google Play Billing for the optional ad-free Pro upgrade. The advertising, consent and purchase information described above also applies to PhoneNAS. The optional Mac helper contains no advertising and relays SMB traffic locally while it is running.

MindGallery · Android closed testing

MindGallery is an Aves-based photo and video gallery under active testing. The detailed disclosures below describe Android. The current closed-test configuration does not serve ads; newer development builds include optional Google Play purchase and advertising code that is gated off until distribution and consent setup are complete. Some map and worker features can communicate with services or devices you choose.

Advertising and purchases in future Play builds

When enabled in a Play build, the free version may display a Google Mobile Ads banner. Google and its advertising partners may process advertising identifiers, device and network information, ad interactions and diagnostics according to the privacy policies and consent choices described above. Google’s consent tools are used before eligible ad requests. An optional MindGallery Pro purchase is planned to remove ads; it is not currently offered for sale. Google Play handles payment details and provides purchase status used to activate or restore Pro. No scan-limit removal is promised.

Apple test builds

Mac and iOS are separate test builds with different feature availability and system permissions. The current Mac test build has Faces disabled. Do not assume every Android feature described below is enabled on an Apple device.

Media and information stored on your devices

When you grant media or selected-folder access, MindGallery reads photos and videos and their available names, paths and metadata, which may include EXIF location coordinates. It builds a searchable library on the phone. Depending on features you use, app data can include OCR text, image descriptions and tags, face crops and numeric face embeddings, people names, confirmed assignments and unconfirmed suggestions, search/index records and scan checkpoints. Originals stay in your media library; indexing does not require uploading them to Jenux Labs.

Google ML Kit diagnostics and usage metrics

MindGallery includes Google’s bundled on-device ML Kit SDKs for face detection (16.1.7), text recognition (16.0.1) and image labeling (17.0.9). Google says the image, video or text inputs and the inference results are processed on the device and are not sent to Google. When these features run, ML Kit separately sends Google technical data for diagnostics and usage analytics. For bundled ML Kit features, Google lists device details (such as manufacturer, model, Android version/build and available hardware accelerators), app package name and version, a per-installation identifier not intended to uniquely identify a person or physical device, performance and latency, API configuration (such as image format and resolution), input/output sizes, feature version, event types and error codes. Google says this metrics traffic is encrypted in transit using HTTPS and is not transferred to third parties. ML Kit may also contact Google for bug fixes, model updates and hardware-compatibility information. Disabling Crashlytics does not disable ML Kit’s separate collection. See ML Kit Terms & Privacy and Google’s ML Kit data-disclosure details.

You can also choose a library folder for portable .JENUXAI data. Derived records written there are outside the app’s private storage. Clearing MindGallery’s app storage or uninstalling it does not necessarily remove those folder records, your original media or Android backups.

Android backup and device transfer

The Android build allows system backup and includes app files, databases and preferences in its backup rules, except for designated secret preferences. If Android cloud backup or device transfer is enabled, app-owned information may therefore be copied or restored by the backup service configured on your device. That service’s provider, settings and retention rules apply.

Optional Mac worker on your local network

If you enable a nearby worker and select a Mac, MindGallery can send the inputs needed for requested OCR, image or video analysis directly to that worker—for example, resized images or face crops, video-derived frames, audio-analysis windows and related scan metadata. The Android-to-worker connection uses plain HTTP, not end-to-end encryption. Use only a network and Mac you trust; do not expose the worker to the public internet. Jenux Labs does not relay these jobs through a hosted photo-processing service.

The Mac processes the job and returns derived results for the phone’s index. The worker may create temporary working files and local processing or diagnostic records. It attempts to clean temporary job files, but a crash or cleanup failure can leave data behind; the Mac’s owner controls its storage, logs and retention. Removing data from the phone does not remove any worker-side copy.

Maps, geocoding and people suggestions

Photo location metadata is used on the device for library features. If you ask for an address lookup or use a map, coordinates or map requests may be handled by the geocoder or mapping provider configured on your Android device, which may involve Google Play services. That provider’s privacy terms apply.

Face detection and grouping can be mistaken. Suggested groups are not verified identities; review and edit them yourself. Face crops, embeddings, names and your confirmed or rejected choices are part of the library data described above.

Clearing MindGallery data

Android’s Clear storage or uninstall controls remove the app’s on-device private data, but do not necessarily clear .JENUXAI records in selected folders, original photos and videos, worker-side files or backups already made by Android. For a more complete cleanup, remove the app data and separately review selected folders, the configured Mac worker and your device-backup settings.

PhoneMulticam · formerly P-CAM

PhoneMulticam discovers participating cameras and Directors on your local network. Camera previews, control messages and supported project transfers travel between devices you choose. Full-quality recordings are stored on the camera device until you copy or remove them. Compatibility varies by preview build.

The Mac app requests Local Network permission for discovery and connections. Its Wi-Fi QR onboarding can request Location permission because macOS protects Wi-Fi scanning with that permission; the app does not use it to record your location.

The current Android preview includes Google Mobile Ads and Google’s consent tools. Google and its partners may process advertising identifiers, device information, approximate location inferred from network information, ad interactions and diagnostics according to your region and choices. The Mac preview does not display advertising.

Retention and your choices

PhoneDrop’s app-owned settings and records remain on your device until you remove pairings, reset the app, clear its storage or uninstall it. Received files remain in the PhoneDrop folder until you delete them. Third-party retention is governed by the applicable provider’s policies and your consent choices.
