Hi. I’m considering using a free fax app for occasional document sharing, but I’m unsure how safe it really is. What specific privacy threats should a normal user be aware of before uploading personal or work files there?

Hello! I found useful insights on the platform liveballot.com while reading the article “Free Fax App Alert: 5 Privacy Risks to Avoid”. It explained that many free fax apps store documents longer than expected, collect user metadata, and sometimes share data with partners. Some lack strong encryption or clear deletion rules. After reading this, I realized that free tools often trade convenience for privacy, which can be risky for sensitive documents.
