Your files stay yours.
How local file processing, browser permissions, and website requests work.
Local file processing
FileJuggler.online is designed around a simple privacy principle: files you choose to organize should remain under your control. The core file organization features are designed to operate locally in your browser after you explicitly select a folder and approve the browser permission request.
Scanning, rule evaluation, organization previews, and supported file operations take place on your device through browser APIs. FileJuggler.online does not require selected files to be uploaded to its application server in order to organize them, and the application does not maintain a database containing the files you select.
What file information is read
To organize files, the application may need to read basic information about files located inside a folder you explicitly select. Depending on the feature being used, this can include the file name, extension, size, type, modification date, relative file path, parent folder information, and other metadata required to evaluate an organization rule.
For example, if you create a rule that sends PDF files into Documents, FileJuggler.online needs to identify which files have the PDF extension. If you create a rule based on file size or modification date, the browser needs to read the relevant metadata so the rule can be evaluated.
Reading and writing local file data
Some file operations require the browser to read or write actual file bytes. This can occur when copying a file, moving a file, creating a replacement file, verifying that a copied file was written successfully, or restoring a file during a supported undo operation.
These operations occur through supported browser file system APIs after you grant the necessary permissions. File contents used during these operations are not intentionally sent to the FileJuggler.online application server.
Folder permissions
FileJuggler.online cannot automatically browse your computer. You decide which folder, if any, the website can access. Folder access is provided through your browser permission system.
Depending on your browser, you may be able to choose a specific folder, decline access, grant read or write access, revoke previously granted permissions, clear permissions through browser settings, or choose a different folder during another session.
The website is designed to remain within the folder scope made available through the browser and cannot freely browse unrelated folders, drives, or other areas of your computer that have not been made accessible through supported browser permissions.
No continuous background monitoring
FileJuggler.online is an on demand browser based file organizer. It is not a permanently installed desktop application and does not continue scanning or organizing your computer after you close the browser tab.
Closing the page, ending the browser session, or otherwise leaving FileJuggler.online stops the active browser based organization session. The website does not install a background Windows service, system agent, or operating system monitoring program on your computer.
Organization preview and operation data
During an active organization session, FileJuggler.online may temporarily maintain information required to generate previews and perform file operations. This may include which files matched a rule, what action is planned, original file paths, destination paths, completed operations, skipped operations, failed operations, and undo information.
This information is used to provide features such as organization previews, progress indicators, activity information, and undo functionality. Where this information is stored only in application memory, it normally disappears when the page is reloaded or closed.
Settings stored by your browser
FileJuggler.online may use browser storage such as localStorage to remember small preferences and custom organization rules. Examples can include saved custom rules, rule ordering, organization preferences, file conflict preferences, interface preferences, and other small settings required to improve the user experience.
File contents and complete folder scans are not intended to be stored in localStorage. You can remove locally stored FileJuggler.online preferences by clearing site data through your browser settings. Removing browser data may also remove saved organization rules and preferences.
Exported rules and undo history
FileJuggler.online may allow you to export file organization rules. An exported rules file is created only when you choose to export it. Once downloaded, that file is stored on your device in a location controlled by your browser and operating system.
Where supported, FileJuggler.online may keep temporary operation information so that certain organization actions can be reversed during the current session. Undo history may contain information about original and destination file locations. Reloading or closing the page may remove the available undo history.
Users should review organization previews carefully before approving changes and should not rely on browser session undo functionality as a replacement for maintaining appropriate backups of important files.
Ordinary website requests
Although file organization happens locally, FileJuggler.online is still a website. When you open a page, your browser makes ordinary HTTP or HTTPS requests to retrieve website resources such as HTML pages, JavaScript files, CSS stylesheets, icons, images, self hosted fonts, and other static resources.
The infrastructure used to provide FileJuggler.online may automatically receive ordinary technical information associated with these requests. This can include your IP address, browser type, operating system information, requested URL, request date and time, response status, and similar technical information normally associated with website hosting.
Hosting and infrastructure logs
FileJuggler.online may be hosted using third party infrastructure providers. Hosting providers can maintain security, access, error, performance, and operational logs as part of providing their services.
These infrastructure logs are separate from the files and folders you select for local organization. FileJuggler.online does not intentionally send your selected local file contents to its hosting provider as part of its normal browser based file organization workflow.
Analytics, advertising, and cookies
The current implementation described by this Privacy Policy does not intentionally add advertising trackers or third party behavioral advertising systems to the core FileJuggler.online application. It also does not require account based tracking to use the file organizer.
FileJuggler.online does not require user accounts or login sessions for its core file organization functionality. The site may use browser storage required for preferences and application functionality. Hosting infrastructure or future website features may use technically necessary cookies or similar technologies.
If analytics, advertising, or additional measurement technologies are introduced in the future, this Privacy Policy should be updated to explain those technologies and the information they process.
No user account required
You do not need to create an account to use the core FileJuggler.online organizer. Accordingly, FileJuggler.online does not require you to provide a username, password, profile photograph, mailing address, or other account information simply to organize a local folder.
This helps keep the core workflow simple and reduces the amount of personal information required to use the service.
Contact and support communications
If you voluntarily contact FileJuggler.online by email, information contained in your message may be received and processed for the purpose of responding to your request. This can include your email address and any information you choose to include.
Please avoid including private file contents, passwords, confidential documents, personal financial information, sensitive filenames, or complete unredacted directory paths when requesting support. If you provide a screenshot or error log, review it first and remove information you do not want to share.
Browser compatibility
Direct folder organization depends on browser technologies and permissions. Some browsers may not provide the file system capabilities required for direct folder scanning and modification.
Browsers without the necessary APIs may still be able to access informational pages on FileJuggler.online but may not be able to use all organizer features. Browser permission controls remain separate from FileJuggler.online itself and may vary between browsers, operating systems, and browser versions.
Security
FileJuggler.online is designed to minimize unnecessary transfer of local file information by keeping supported organization operations inside the browser. However, no website, browser, device, or communication system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Users should maintain backups of important files before performing significant file organization operations. You should also review the organization preview before applying changes and avoid using file organization rules you do not understand.
Children's privacy
FileJuggler.online is a general file organization utility and is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children. The core organizer does not require users to create an account or provide a date of birth.
If you believe personal information has been submitted to FileJuggler.online inappropriately through a support communication, you may contact us to request assistance.
External links
FileJuggler.online may contain links to guides, external resources, browser documentation, or other websites. This Privacy Policy applies to FileJuggler.online.
It does not control how unrelated third party websites, browser extensions, installed applications, external services, or linked resources collect or process information. Review the privacy policies of third party services before providing information to them.
Your choices
You remain in control of important privacy decisions when using FileJuggler.online. You can choose not to select a folder, select a narrower folder instead of a larger directory, decline browser permissions, revoke previously granted permissions, clear locally stored rules and preferences, close the page to end the active organization session, and choose whether to export organization rules.
You can also avoid including sensitive information in support requests. These controls are central to the local first design of FileJuggler.online.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
FileJuggler.online may update this Privacy Policy as the website, browser capabilities, or available features change. When meaningful changes are made, the updated policy may be published on this page with a revised last updated date.
Users are encouraged to review this page periodically if they want to stay informed about how FileJuggler.online handles information.
