Privacy & data retention
Tekilio Frames is a free public test service. This page explains plainly what happens to a deck when you upload it — no fine print.
What we collect
- The
.pptxfile you upload. - The render output produced from it (the per-click-state PNGs and
notes.json). - Your IP address, used only for per-IP rate limiting to keep the shared renderer available.
We don't ask for an account, a name, or an email to use the tool.
Why we keep it
Uploaded files and their output are retained so we can reproduce and debug rendering problems and prevent abuse of a single-instance service. This is a testbed, not a vault — so the honest guidance is below.
How long we keep it
Uploads and results are retained for debugging and are cleared on the service's periodic purge cycle. They are not kept indefinitely, but there is no guaranteed auto-delete timer — treat anything you upload as retained until purged.
Who can access your result
Each upload returns a unique download key. Fetching your result
zip requires that key (sent as an X-Download-Key header or a
?key= parameter); without it the download is rejected. The key is a
stateless HMAC tied to your job, and the web page keeps it in your browser for
that job — so another visitor can't enumerate or download your output. Service
operators can access stored files for the debugging purposes above.
Please don't upload confidential decks
Because files are retained for debugging on a shared test box, do not upload confidential, regulated, or sensitive presentations. Use a non-sensitive deck to try the tool. If you need this for private material, get in touch about a dedicated instance.
