Hideout Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 3, 2026

In short: your files and your browsing stay on your Meta Quest headset, and the app sends only anonymous usage stats that you can turn off.

Summary

• No account and no ads.
• Your files, vaults, passwords and settings stay on your headset. File names, folders and vault contents are never sent anywhere.
• The app sends anonymous usage stats (which features are used, whether videos play) to PostHog, EU-hosted. Turn them off in Settings, Privacy, "Share anonymous usage data".
• The private web browser connects straight to the sites you visit. We never see the pages you open, what you search for or what you type. Private browsing is wiped when you close it; a vault's browser is saved encrypted inside that vault.
• Otherwise the app only goes online to reach the PCs, NAS drives and servers (SMB, SFTP or FTP) that you add, and to check purchases with the Meta Horizon Store.
• Meta, as the platform and store, handles its own data under its own policy.

Vault passwords are never stored. Photos, small files and file names are fully encrypted (AES-256-GCM); big files are encrypted at the vault's level: Fast (pieces all through the file), Strong (a quarter) or Full (every byte).

This website uses Google Analytics to measure aggregate visitor traffic (pages visited, links clicked). That is separate from the app's anonymous usage stats.
