Account & your data
This page summarizes what GitNomad stores and how you stay in control. For the full legal text, see the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
Your account
You sign in with GitHub or Google. GitNomad receives your email address and basic profile info (like your name or username) to identify your account. That’s it — no passwords to manage.
What GitNomad stores
To sync between your phone and computer, GitNomad’s sync service holds:
- The code you choose to share — files, commits, and unsaved edits for the repos you expose — so your devices can exchange them.
- Device links — a secure token that ties a linked computer to your account.
- Run output — passed through so it can stream back to your phone.
GitNomad does not read, analyze, sell, or share your code, and there are no ads or third-party trackers.
Removing a single repo
Tap the trash icon on a repo (or Remove in the extension) to delete the cloud copy of that repo. Your local git repository on your computer is not touched.
- Remove on the phone → deletes the cloud copy. If the extension keeps exposing that folder, it can reappear.
- Remove in the extension → stops exposing it and deletes the cloud copy (permanent).
Deleting your account
Profile → Delete account.
This permanently:
- deletes all your synced repos from the cloud,
- unlinks all your computers, and
- removes your sign-in record.
Your code on your own computer is never affected — your local git repositories stay exactly as they are. Account deletion cannot be undone.
Can’t open the app? You can also request account & data deletion by email.
Data retention
- Shared repos stay on the sync service until you remove them (or the computer stops exposing them), or until you delete your account.
- Account and device data are kept while your account exists.
