Netsbee Data Privacy Explained
Whenever you use software or a service it’s important to understand how your information is used.
Netsbee is an internet-enabled tool.
Netsbee uses compartmentalisation, only the minimum required data is collected, and only a subset ever leaves your device. Additionally from v.1.25 onwards all external API requests are additionally proxied via Cloudflare edge processing.
