At K8Studio.io, security and privacy are fundamental. This page outlines how we protect your data and ensure safe usage—even in highly secure air-gapped environments.

🔐 Application Distribution

• K8Studio is a standalone desktop app that runs entirely on your local machine.
• There is no need to install any components inside your Kubernetes clusters.
• Our application is code-signed and verified with on all major platforms (e.g., Windows, macOS).
• Updates are cryptographically signed and verified before installation.
• K8Studio is fully compatible with offline, air-gapped, and high-security environments.

🌐 Connectivity & Cluster Access

• K8Studio uses your existing kubeconfig file—just like kubectl.
• All communication is encrypted and made directly to your cluster. There is no middleman.
• The app fully respects Kubernetes RBAC—you only see what you're authorized to.
• Compatible with VPNs, proxies, and other network-restricted environments.

🧠 Data Handling

• K8Studio does not modify your kubeconfig or cluster settings.
• All data retrieved from your cluster is:
  • Stored in memory only
  • Deleted when the app closes
  • Never sent to any server
• Logs and resource data are streamed directly from your cluster.
• Shell sessions are handled via kubectl in a dedicated terminal window.

🛡️ Privacy & Minimal Data Collection

• We do not collect personal information like job titles, company names, location, age, or gender.
• The only information collected is:
  • Email address and password (for account creation)
  • A connection to our license server to validate your subscription
• No usage analytics, behavioral tracking, or telemetry of any kind.
