Security
Your computer and what is on it are yours. IdleLink is built so that your files are not parked on someone else’s server, and who can do what is drawn narrowly from the start rather than opened up and trimmed back later.
The contents of files, remote screens and messages are not stored on our servers. They travel between your machines, and when a direct connection is not possible they pass through an encrypted relay that does not keep them.
For someone to see your screen you have to approve it at that moment, and a red banner stays visible for as long as the session runs. There is no path that skips the approval. One approval covers that session, and if the internet drops it out from under you, only a reconnection within a short window reuses it. Pressing “disconnect” expires the approval immediately, so the next attempt needs approval and a PIN again. Connecting without being asked each time is available only between PCs on your own account, and only when you switch it on yourself.
After the first sign-in, PCs on the same router — one home, one office — keep reaching each other even when the line is down. Not depending on somebody else’s server is the point of the design.
Put a password on a backup and the machine receiving it cannot read the contents — file names and folder structure included. The more sensitive the material, the more reason to lock it.
Permission follows the relationship
Choosing the relationship decides how wide the door opens. Wider for the people close to you, narrower for everyone else.
My PCs
Everything — remote control, files, backup, offloading
Same owner, so they trust each other. Signing in is all it takes to make them one group.
Our PCs
Only what you allowed — each new remote session needs their approval and a 6-digit PIN
A different account, so the door opens narrowly. Open only what is needed, and cut it any time.
Guest
That one errand only — anything outside the invite is refused
The code expires shortly, and the link drops itself a day after connecting. Nothing is left behind afterwards.
One thing stated plainly
The contents of files, screens and messages are not stored on our servers. Signing in and knowing which of your devices are online do reach them, because the service cannot work otherwise. What is processed and why is written out in full in our privacy policy. The Korean text is the binding original — the English rendering says so at the top — so where the two ever differ, the Korean one is what holds.
