Absolute Garbage
You will spend more time watching ads than you will actually using the app. This app is really garbage. Use mega for file storage, use google drive, use icloud storage, DO NOT USE THIS GARBAGE APP.
STAY FAR, FAR AWAY. SO MANY RED FLAGS.
This is Flextech Inc. out of Tokyo, formerly Dubox by Baidu. Neither the terms of service nor the privacy policy mentions Baidu once. That is a choice. And it sets the tone for everything below.
Before you can even reach the terms and privacy policy links, the app puts its tracking permission demand in front of you. You're asked to consent to surveillance before you're allowed to read what you'd be consenting to. That's the handshake. Here's what's actually in the documents:
1. They profile your files. The privacy policy has you agreeing they can aggregate and analyze your information to build "label information" reflecting your "operation habits, interests, or credit," then use it for automated decision-making and marketing. A storage locker that opens your boxes and scores you.
2. The app reads your clipboard. It's a declared feature, supposedly only for invite codes and share links, with a promise they'll never look otherwise. Your clipboard carries passwords, 2FA codes, banking details, crypto seed phrases. Weigh that promise against a company that won't print its own corporate history.
3. Deletion is discretionary. You email a helpdesk, they "determine whether to accept your deletion request based on your usage," and if you have any data in your account they won't accept it immediately. No timeline given. It's a storage service. Having data in the account is the entire product. The deletion right functions mainly for empty accounts.
4. Facial recognition KYC on their say-so. When they deem it "necessary," you must hand over your real name, government ID number, and facial recognition data, which they may cross-check against government-authorized institutions. For a file locker.
5. Liability for losing your data: one month's fee. The all-caps section disclaims "ANY LOSS OF DATA, REGARDLESS OF LEGAL THEORY" and caps damages at what you paid that month. The one job the product has is the one thing they won't answer for. The same clause misspells "NEGLIGGNCE" and "ATTRIBTUED." They couldn't proofread their own liability cap.
6. Breach notification is optional. If they judge that their own cleanup "effectively avoided the harm," they may simply not tell you unless a regulator forces them. Self-graded homework, and you never see the report card.
7. Your data goes to governmental organizations "or their agents" without your consent, plus a disclosure exception for the "healthy development of youth," vague enough to cover anything with a badge or a mission statement.
8. No refunds after auto-renewal "for any reason." You're charged whether you use the service or not. All disputes go to courts in Tokyo under Japanese law. Your realistic remedy is an email and fifteen days of waiting.
The documents can't even agree with themselves. The terms say the minimum age is 15, the children's policy says 13, the guardian section says 18. The privacy policy for this alleged cloud drive contains entire sections on AI beautification and beauty filters. This paperwork was assembled from other apps' parts, and the "affiliates and certain third parties" who inherit permission to scan your files are never named anywhere.
This is a data acquisition funnel with storage bolted on. Stay the hell away.
