Your cloud deserves better than US tech. Go European.
Big Tech puts your cloud under US law, wherever you live. Choose a European home for your files and photos that keeps you in control. No ads, no AI training, no surveillance. All for free.
A safe home for your most important files
For Big Tech, your sensitive data is their business. They create targeted ads, build detailed profiles about you and train AI systems to recognize patterns, including faces from family photos.
Since Big Tech companies are in the US, they are subject to US laws, which allow warrantless data sharing, even if you live abroad.
Proton Drive gives you a free, private, European home for your files. Everything you store is end-to-end encrypted so only you have access — independent from US tech and firmly under your control.
