Privacy Policy — Kelola
Last updated: 5 September 2026
Android package: com.tursinalabs.kelola
1. Scope
This page is the privacy policy for the Kelola app published by Tursina Labs. It describes only this app. Other Tursina Labs products are covered by the studio Privacy Policy. Using Kelola is also subject to the Kelola Terms of Service.
2. What Kelola is
Kelola is a phone client for agentless Linux administration over SSH. It connects from your device to hosts you configure. There is no Tursina Labs backend for Kelola and no cloud account.
3. Data on your device
Kelola stores data locally on your phone, including:
- Host inventory, notes, recents, and related preferences
- Host-key pins (TOFU) and discovery facts used by the dashboard
- A local audit log of probes you run
- An SSH identity whose private key is held in Android StrongBox or iOS Secure Enclave when available (non-exportable; biometric-gated signing)
Private keys are not shown in the UI, logs, or backups that Kelola creates. Restoring inventory on a new phone means re-enrollment.
4. What we do not collect
Tursina Labs does not:
- Create a Kelola cloud account for you
- Operate a Kelola API that receives your host inventory
- Collect telemetry or analytics from the Kelola app to our servers
- Sell your personal information or show ads in Kelola
5. Network connections
When you connect to a host, traffic goes directly from your phone to that host over SSH. Tursina Labs does not proxy those sessions. Google Play and your device OS may process install, update, and crash information under their own policies.
6. Retention and deletion
Local data remains until you clear app storage or uninstall Kelola. Because there is no Kelola cloud account, there is no remote account-deletion page. Uninstalling or clearing data on the device removes Kelola's local records on that device.
7. Children's privacy
Kelola is not directed at children under 13. Do not use the app to provide personal information about children to us; we do not operate a Kelola backend that would receive it.
8. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy. The "Last updated" date will change when we do. The current policy is always at https://www.tursinalabs.com/kelola/privacy.
