Free cloud storage for photos
Proton Drive protects your photos with end-to-end encryption by default. Our free cloud storage uses the same robust encryption as our paid plans, so no one can see your photos except you and those you share them with.
Protect your photos with end-to-end encryption
Your photos capture your most private moments and memories, and should be shared selectively with your close friends, family, or kept for yourself. Proton Drive uses end-to-end encryption to mathematically ensure no one can access your photos except the people you choose to share them with.
How Proton protects your photos
Strong encryption
Proton uses advanced end-to-end encryption that is secure against all known attacks. Our zero-access encryption ensures that even Proton cannot decrypt your photos.
Secure hardware
We own and control all of our servers. These servers are fully encrypted, protecting your photos even in the unlikely event that our physical infrastructure was breached or stolen.
Swiss privacy
Proton protects your photos with some of the world’s strongest privacy laws. We are headquartered in Switzerland and only house our servers in privacy-friendly countries.
Share your photos securely
You can easily share photos with Proton Drive in just one click by creating an end-to-end encrypted file sharing link.
We don’t impose any limits on the size of the files you share or number of times your contacts can download your photos using your file-sharing link.
With Proton Drive, you are always in control of who can download your photos and when. You can password-protect your file sharing links, revoke access to them, or set an expiry date.
Secure online photo storage
You can upload photos to your Proton Drive cloud storage straight from your device via our web app, or using our apps for iPhone or Android. Proton Drive’s intuitive interface makes it easy to store your photos securely. As all the encryption happens in the background on your device before it is sent to our servers, you don’t need any additional technical know-how to protect your photos.
Get more space to store your photos
Proton Drive Free comes with up to 5 GB total storage, meaning you can store around 3000 photos (depending on their file size). If you want to store larger files or even more photos, you can upgrade your Proton Drive account to get up to 500 GB of storage.
