Privacy & safety · What leaves your Mac

Does Storage Studio upload my files anywhere?

Short answer: No. Your files, file names and contents never go to Storage Studio's servers. Files only leave your Mac when you send them yourself — to a cloud account you connected, a backup destination you chose, or one of your own devices.

No. Storage Studio's servers never receive your files, their names, or their contents. Moving, cleaning and measuring all happen on your Mac and the drives you choose.

The only time your files travel anywhere is when you set it up — for example, a transfer or backup to a cloud account you connected yourself, or a file you send to one of your own devices with Bridge. In those cases the files go to that destination, not to us.

What the app does send is small and described in What does Storage Studio send over the internet?. The full detail is in the Privacy Policy.
