Terms & Privacy

Plain language, kept short. Last updated September 2026.

Terms

Tunneli is a Mac app that publishes a local port on your computer at a random *.tunneli.app address for up to 24 hours. You’re responsible for what you share and for who you give a link to. Don’t use it to serve anything illegal, to relay abuse, or to run a public site — links are for showing work to people, not for hosting.

The first 7 days are free. After that a license is $29 or €29 per year per person, on up to five of your Macs, sold through Polar as merchant of record. Subscriptions renew yearly until cancelled; cancel any time and the year you paid for stays active. If it isn’t for you, ask for a refund within 14 days of purchase.

The service is provided as is. Links can go offline whenever your Mac is asleep or off, and we may stop a link or an install that is being abused. We may change the service or these terms; the version on this page is the one that applies.

Privacy

We try to know as little as possible.

No accounts. The app registers itself anonymously and gets a random install id.
The service stores, per install: that id, the tunnel identity, the hostnames and port numbers of live links, when they expire, and a hash of your Mac’s hardware id so the free week can’t be restarted by reinstalling.
If you buy, your license key and its activation id are stored against the install. Payment details, email and invoices live with Polar under their privacy policy.
Traffic through a link passes through Cloudflare’s network to your Mac. We don’t log or store the content of that traffic. Cloudflare keeps its usual edge logs.
The website uses no analytics cookies. Fonts load from Google Fonts.

Reset in the app deletes the install and everything attached to it on our side. For anything else, write to support@tunneli.app.
