Owner and purpose

Bruno Souza owns Fastmail Backup, a private utility designed to make encrypted copies of his personal Fastmail mail. Questions can be sent to bruno@brunosouzas.com.

Mail and encryption

The utility reads messages and attachments from one selected personal Fastmail account. It prepares the copy locally and encrypts it before upload. Temporary local processing includes unencrypted mail; the retained mail snapshots are encrypted. The utility does not send mail to AI models and does not send, modify or delete messages in Fastmail.

Google Drive access and storage

Google is the remote storage provider. The utility uses the Google Drive drive.file permission for files created by the application or explicitly selected for use with it. This permission does not grant access to the whole Drive.

Only encrypted mail snapshots and non-sensitive backup receipts are uploaded to a private folder created by the integration. Encrypted copies and receipts are also retained locally.

Retention and revocation

Bruno controls retention. The utility does not automatically delete or prune backup history; copies remain until the owner separately chooses to remove them.

The owner can revoke the application’s access through Google Account permissions. Revocation stops future authorised Drive access; it does not delete existing copies. Removing stored copies is a separate action.
