Security

Firelize is designed to keep your project information private, secure, and local to your device. This page gives you a quick overview of the core security principles.

1. Zero Knowledge Principle

Firelize operates on a zero knowledge basis. We never access or store any details about your Firebase projects, databases, or documents. All operations are performed locally on your machine – never in the cloud.

Firelize communicates only with its license server, and only to validate your license status. No information about your Firebase projects or how you use Firelize is collected, transmitted, or stored.

2. OS-Level Encryption

To safeguard your sensitive configuration data – such as Service Account Keys – Firelize leverages your operating system’s built-in encryption capabilities. For instance, on macOS, it uses Keychain Access, while on Windows, it relies on the Data Protection API.

3. No Telemetry or Analytics

Firelize does not include telemetry, analytics, or crash reporting tools that could leak usage patterns or project details. All product improvements are guided solely by voluntary user feedback. This ensures that no hidden data collection occurs in the background.
