Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Overview

Nova Stashy is a native iOS client for a self-hosted Stash media server. This policy describes what data the app handles and how it is used.

Nova Stashy collects no personal data, sends nothing to third parties, and includes no analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs.

  • No account registration or Nova Stashy sign-in
  • No analytics or usage tracking

Data Stored on Your Device

Nova Stashy stores the following data locally on your device:

  • Thumbnail image cache is held temporarily by the app to display your library. Cached images are cleared when the app refreshes or saved server data is removed.

Network Connections

Nova Stashy connects only to the Stash server address you enter. Media, metadata, thumbnails, and library data come from your configured server and are not forwarded to any Nova Stashy service.

Your Server and Its Content
