Privacy Policy — Proxmox Backup
Effective date: November 11, 2026
Proxmox Backup is a private, self-hosted backup utility used by its owner. It is not a public service.
Information accessed
With the owner's authorization, the utility accesses the owner's Google Drive account to upload, list, check, and manage backup archives and related configuration backups. Backup archives may contain information from the owner's virtual machines, containers, and server configuration.
Purpose and use
Google Drive access is used only to store and maintain the owner's backups, including checking successful transfers and managing backup retention. Access is not used for advertising, profiling, or selling data.
Storage and sharing
Backup archives are stored in the owner's Google Drive account. OAuth credentials are intended to remain on the owner's private server. The utility does not intentionally share Google Drive data with other users or sell personal information. Google processes stored data under its own terms and privacy policy.
Retention and deletion
The owner controls the backup retention policy and can delete backup archives from Google Drive. The owner may revoke this application's Google Drive access at any time through Google Account security settings.
Security
The utility is operated on the owner's server. Access credentials should be kept private and server access restricted. No online service can guarantee absolute security.
Changes and contact
This policy may be updated if the utility's functionality changes. Questions can be directed to the application owner through the support contact shown on the Google OAuth consent screen.
