LIFTBRIDGEThe short version
FeedStash is self-hosted. The server runs on hardware you control, and everything it holds — your feeds, articles, saved items and account — stays there. Liftbridge Labs does not host it, cannot see it, and collects nothing from it.
The apps
The FeedStash apps and browser extension talk only to the server address you enter. There is no Liftbridge Labs account, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party tracking. Your server address and access token are kept on your own device (in the app's secure storage, or in the browser for the extension), and are sent only to that server.
Anything the app keeps on your device — the articles and images it has downloaded so you can read offline, and your display settings — is removed when you delete the app.
The browser extension
FeedStash Capture, the extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave and Firefox, sends what you save only to your own FeedStash server, and only when you save something. Depending on what you choose, that is the address and title of a page, text you selected, a screenshot of the visible part of the tab, or a copy of the page you are on, along with any tags, folder or note you add.
The only site it can reach on its own is your server, which you allow in the browser when you set it up. It reads a web page only when you click its toolbar button or one of its right-click items, and only in that tab. It does not record your browsing history or run on the sites you visit.
Your server address, access token and the folder you last saved into are kept in the browser's extension storage on your computer, and are removed when you remove the extension. Nothing is sent to Liftbridge Labs.
What your server talks to
Because you run it, your FeedStash server is what reaches out on your behalf:
- the websites whose feeds you follow, and the pages you save, so it can fetch them and keep a readable copy;
- your mail provider, if you connect a mailbox for email-to-stash;
- Google or another OpenID Connect provider, if you turn on that way of signing in.
Those services receive the request your server makes and are covered by their own privacy policies. Nothing is sent to Liftbridge Labs.
Support
If you email support@liftbridgelabs.app, we see what you send us — your address and the contents of your message — and use it only to answer you. Please do not include passwords, API tokens or other secrets.
Children
FeedStash is not directed at children under 13 and collects nothing from anyone.
