Ultimate privacy

Safeberg is developed with only one question in mind: how can we guarantee privacy? First, we chose to use an extremely safe key for the encryption of files. Afterwards, the question that played a major role in our development process arose: who is going to store this key? Not us (unless you wish us to). Storing your key on a computer is not a wise thing to do either, due to its vulnerability. So we came up with the 'Key on Paper'.

Through this, Safeberg Backup offers the best guarantee for your privacy.

Nothing leaves your computer unsafe

Safeberg Backup encrypts every single file before it is sent to our protected servers. As such, your data is sent to Safeberg in an extremely safe way.

We are not capable of looking through your files. Safeberg can only see encrypted files. To illustrate this, an encrypted letter, photo, or e-mail looks like this:

Example of an encrypted file:

These codes are of no use to us or to others. To leave no room for mistakes, we have raised the security level by setting norms that are higher than those that are usually used by banks and for national security (See also: encryption technology).

No key on your computer

You have two keys. Your files are encrypted by a key on your computer. However, your files can not be deciphered with this key. This is only possible with an other key, the 'Key on Paper'.

You are the only one with a key

In case you need to restore your data, you will have to make use of your paper key. Without it, you will not be able to restore your data. Safeberg does not have access to your key or files.

Key and password required

Giving your key to someone else for you to keep does not mean that this person will have access to your files. In order to access your files, both your key and your Safeberg password are necessary. If you have lost your password, you can send a request to receive it by e-mail.

100% Privacy

To guarantee an ultimate level of privacy, we apply security measures to each element of each file. As such, it is not just the content that is encrypted, but filenames, filepaths, and the size of these files are encrypted as well.
