Flint VPN Privacy Policy

What Flint does

Flint is a VPN client. It lets users import or create an FPTN server profile and establish a VPN tunnel from an Android device to the selected server.

Data Flint processes

• VPN profile data, including server name, host, port, SNI, and certificate fingerprint.
• VPN credentials and imported token data.
• Selected per-app routing packages chosen on the device.
• Connection state and technical diagnostics such as tunnel status, handshake timing, DNS failures, and authentication failures.
• QR import data when the user chooses camera-based import.

How data is used

• Import and store VPN connection profiles.
• Establish and maintain the VPN tunnel requested by the user.
• Apply per-app routing choices configured by the user.
• Show connection status and diagnose connection failures.

Data sharing

Flint does not sell personal data and does not use in-app advertising SDKs. VPN traffic is sent to the VPN server endpoint selected by the user because this is the core function of the app. Users should review the privacy practices of the VPN service operator that provides their server credentials.

Storage and security

• VPN credentials are stored locally on the device using encrypted Android storage.
• Other local VPN settings are stored on the device to preserve configuration and routing preferences.
• Traffic between the device and the VPN tunnel endpoint is encrypted.

Camera access

Camera permission is optional and is used only to scan a QR code with VPN configuration data. Manual token import and manual server setup remain available without camera access.

Installed apps data

Flint reads launcher-visible installed apps only to let the user configure per-app VPN routing. This information is processed locally on the device.

Notifications and boot handling

Flint can show VPN status notifications and can resume protected sessions after device reboot or app replacement when the platform allows it.

Data retention and deletion

Users can remove saved profiles and clear local app data from within the app. Removing app data or uninstalling the app deletes locally stored VPN configuration from the device, subject to standard Android behavior.
