CloudFlare Mobile Last updated: April 2, 2026


Overview

CloudFlare Mobile is an unofficial, open-source mobile application that allows you to manage your Cloudflare account from your Android device. This privacy policy explains how the app handles your data.

CloudFlare Mobile is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to Cloudflare, Inc.

These credentials are stored locally on your device only, using Android Keystore hardware-backed encryption. They are never transmitted to any server other than the official Cloudflare API.

We do not collect, store, or transmit:

  • Personal information beyond what you provide for authentication
  • Device identifiers or fingerprints
  • Location data
  • Usage analytics or telemetry
  • Crash reports
  • Advertising identifiers
  • Cookies or tracking data

Third-Party Services

Cloudflare API

The app communicates with the official Cloudflare API for all account management features:

https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4

Google AdMob

The app uses Google AdMob to display banner advertisements. AdMob may collect certain data as described in Google's Privacy Policy. This may include:

  • Advertising ID
  • Approximate location (IP-based)
  • Device information (model, OS version)
  • Ad interaction data

You can opt out of personalized ads in your device settings under Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization.

No other third-party services, analytics platforms, or tracking SDKs are used beyond the above.


Data Storage & Security

  • All sensitive data (API tokens, API keys, email) is encrypted using Android Keystore, which provides hardware-backed encryption on supported devices
  • Data is stored in the app's private storage, inaccessible to other apps
  • No data is stored on external storage or shared directories
  • No data is backed up to cloud services by the app

Data Sharing

We do not share your data with any third parties. Your credentials and account information remain on your device and are only sent to the Cloudflare API for authentication and management operations.


Data Retention & Deletion

  • All data is stored locally on your device
  • Signing out from the app immediately deletes all stored credentials
  • Uninstalling the app removes all app data from your device
  • No server-side data exists to delete — we have no servers

Children's Privacy

CloudFlare Mobile is not intended for use by children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children. The app is a technical infrastructure management tool designed for Cloudflare account administrators.


Your Rights

Since all data is stored locally on your device, you have full control:

  • Access — View your stored credentials in Settings
  • Delete — Sign out to remove all stored data, or uninstall the app
  • Portability — Not applicable as no data is stored externally

Open Source

CloudFlare Mobile is open source. You can review the source code to verify our privacy practices at any time.
