Privacy Policy

Guard Drop operates the guarddrop.com website, which provides scheduled digital drops (collectively, the “Service”).

  1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy informs our website visitors about our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information when using our Service, the guarddrop.com website.

  1. Hosting and Infrastructure

Our Service is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and utilizes Render and Atlas for robust and secure data management and deployment. While these platforms provide critical infrastructure and hosting, please be aware that they may independently collect data or metadata not directly intended for collection by Guard Drop. This collection is governed by their respective privacy policies.

  1. Consent

By choosing to use our Service, you consent to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

  1. Encryption

All hosted files are end-to-end encrypted (using Fernet and Scrypt) by the Guard Drop client software before being sent to our servers. We do not have access to your files. Your files can only be accessed with the private key stored on the Guard Drop client.

  1. Dissemination

We utilize Endgrate for our dissemination services. Data is only sent to Endgrate once it has been released by the Guard Drop client software. When failure conditions are met — for instance, if the user does not check in by a specified date — the client automatically triggers the release of the content by sending the private key and recipient information to the server. This data is then forwarded to Endgrate to any connected integrations. At that point data is no longer under our control and is subject to the privacy policies of Endgrate and any connected integrations.

  1. Information Collection and Use

We collect information solely for providing and improving our Service.

  1. Log Data

Our Service automatically collects Log Data sent by your browser. This may include your computer's IP address, browser type, visited pages, visit time and date, time spent on pages, and other statistics.

  1. Cookies

We use “cookies” to provide our Service. Cookies are only used for first party purposes.

  1. Simple Analytics

We at guarddrop.com use Simple Analytics for website analytics. Simple Analytics collects and processes anonymous metrics and provides us with information to help us understand how visitors use our website and where our traffic comes from.

  1. Security

We strive to protect your Personal Information using commercially acceptable means. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage method is 100% secure.

  1. Links to Other Sites

Our Service may include links to external sites not operated by us. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

  1. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for individuals under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under 13. If we become aware of such collection, we take steps to remove the information from our servers.

  1. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy periodically. We advise reviewing this page periodically for any changes. Changes are effective immediately upon posting.

  1. No Selling or Misuse of Data

We emphasize that we do not sell or use your data for any purpose other than providing the core Service of our platform. Your privacy and trust are paramount to us.
