homelab-backup

App name: homelab-backup — the name shown on the Google sign-in (OAuth consent) screen.

A personal backup tool for one home server. Not a public service.

What this app does

homelab-backup is a small backup program that runs on its owner's home server (a Proxmox host at home). Every night it collects the server's important data — configuration files, database dumps, project source code and photos — encrypts it on the server and uploads the encrypted copy to the owner's own Google Drive. Once a week it also uploads encrypted copies of the server's virtual machine backups. If the server is lost or broken, the owner can download these copies and restore the system.

Who uses it

Only the owner of the home server, with their own Google account. The app has no public sign-up, no other users and no website features beyond this page. It is not offered to anyone else.

How it uses Google data

• It requests a single Google permission: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file — access only to files and folders that this app itself creates in the owner's Drive (the folder homelab-backup). It cannot see, read or change any other file in the owner's Drive.
• It only creates, lists, reads (for restore), and deletes (for old backups) its own backup files.
• All backup content is encrypted before upload; Google stores only encrypted data.
• No Google data is shared with anyone, sold, or used for advertising or any other purpose.
