Boxhound is a local-first inventory app. Your boxes and items live on your device by default. This page explains what little we touch when you use the app or optional cloud backup.
What we store
Sign-in is handled by Clerk. We do not run our own accounts system, and we do not collect or store personal profile details (such as your name or email) on our servers.
On our side, we only keep your Clerk user ID so we can tell requests apart when you use authenticated features.
Optional cloud backup
If you use cloud backup or restore, we store an inventory snapshot (boxes and items you send) keyed to that Clerk user ID. Photo files are not uploaded — only path strings you already keep locally, if any. You can stop using backup at any time; local data remains on your device.
What we do not do
- We do not sell your data.
- We do not use your inventory for advertising.
- We do not track you across other apps or sites for ads.
Third parties
Authentication is provided by Clerk. Hosting and database services may process the Clerk user ID and any backup snapshot you choose to upload, solely to run the product.
