Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 21, 2026. This Privacy Policy explains how wiremaven handles information when you use the website, docs, package integrations, CLI, Chrome extension, hosted relay, temporary review links, and related beta services.

wiremaven is built for short-lived local-development review sessions. Do not use it to expose production systems, secrets, regulated data, or content you do not have permission to share.

Scope

This policy applies to wiremaven surfaces that let a presenter create a temporary public review link for a development app running on a local machine. It covers the public website and docs, the package and CLI flows, the Chrome extension flow, the hosted relay used by beta sessions, and reviewer access through generated review links.

A reviewed app may have its own privacy practices. wiremaven does not control the local app, the data it displays, or the content the presenter chooses to expose through a temporary link.

Summary

  • wiremaven processes tunnel traffic to provide user-requested review sessions.
  • wiremaven does not sell personal information or use it for advertising.
  • The public package, CLI, extension, and site do not include third-party product analytics, telemetry, crash reporting, advertising identifiers, or tracking pixels.
  • Reviewer visibility gives presenters session awareness, not deep visitor profiling.
  • Review links are temporary and should be treated as shareable access to the local app for the life of the session.

Information We Process

Information you provide

When you use wiremaven, you may provide configuration and session choices such as the local port, session duration, framework path, and whether to create, stop, or refresh a temporary review link. If you contact the project or send feedback, that message may include the information you choose to provide.

Information processed during review sessions

During an active session, wiremaven processes the request and response data needed to route reviewer traffic between the public review link and the presenter's local development app. This can include request paths, query strings, headers, methods, response status, response timing, failure reasons, session expiry, generated link identifiers, and the content returned by the local app.

wiremaven may also derive session-awareness signals such as viewer counts, coarse browser labels, masked network information, request outcomes, and recent errors so the presenter can understand what happened during a live review.

Chrome extension session state

The Chrome extension keeps session-scoped tunnel state in browser session storage so the popup and background worker can stay in sync. That state is limited to the active tunnel workflow, such as local port, generated public URL, expiry, status, recent event information, and visible errors. The extension does not collect unrelated browsing history, page content, keystrokes, or unrelated website data.

Website and infrastructure information

The website and hosted infrastructure receive basic technical information needed to serve pages, protect the service, and prevent abuse. That includes request metadata: time, route, status code, user agent, and network data handled by hosting providers.

How We Use Information

  • Provide temporary review links and relay traffic for active sessions.
  • Show presenters session status, viewer counts, request outcomes, expiry, and recovery guidance.
  • Operate, secure, rate-limit, debug, and improve the beta service.
  • Respond to feedback, support requests, bug reports, or legal obligations.
  • Protect wiremaven, users, reviewers, and the public from abuse or security risks.

Sharing

Reviewers who receive a public review link can access the local app content exposed by that link while the session is active. Presenters are responsible for choosing who receives a link and what local content the link can reach.

wiremaven may share information with infrastructure providers and service vendors that help operate the website and beta service for those operational purposes. wiremaven may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a business transfer.

wiremaven does not sell personal information, use personal information for targeted advertising, or share session data with advertising networks.

Retention

wiremaven review sessions are temporary. Session state and event data stay for the time needed to operate the active or ended beta workflow, troubleshoot issues, protect the service, comply with law, or enforce the Terms. Browser session storage used by the Chrome extension is cleared by the browser session lifecycle or when the extension clears tunnel state.

Security

wiremaven uses technical and organizational safeguards appropriate for a beta developer tool, but no internet service can guarantee perfect security. Treat every generated review link as access to the local app for its active window. Use the shortest practical session duration, stop sessions when reviews end, and avoid exposing secrets, credentials, production data, or admin surfaces.

Your Choices

  • You can choose not to create a public review link.
  • You can stop or refresh a session to invalidate the current link.
  • You can limit what your local development app exposes before sharing a link.
  • You can uninstall the package, CLI, or extension if you no longer want to use wiremaven.
  • You can send privacy questions through the official project contact or beta support channel available to you.

Children

wiremaven is a developer tool and is not directed to children. Do not use wiremaven if you are not old enough to enter into these terms or if your use is not permitted by applicable law.

Changes

wiremaven may update this Privacy Policy as the beta changes. The updated page will show a new last-updated date. Continued use of wiremaven after an update means you accept the updated policy.
