Data Upload and Download

DIVER Storage offers the ability to upload and store text files, documents, images, videos and other digital content to or from our servers via AES 256-bit end-to-end encryption. Strict internal privacy processes and security requirements govern and ensure that this digital content is not accessible to anyone (AES 256-bit end-to-end encryption allows only the account owner to see the data, as it is not readable or accessible to us). We never share this (encrypted) content with third parties unless required by applicable Country law.

Data Security

DIVER Storage products are designed to have several layers of security.

We encrypt files that you upload to DIVER Storage servers using the AES- 256 algorithm. You control your encryption keys, and We does not have access to them.
We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) to create a secure tunnel to protect data in transit between DIVER Storage apps and servers.
We don’t store your account passphrase on our servers in any form. Your passphrase is only on your device, and we hash and salt it to help protect it against possible compromise.
No transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we can’t absolutely guarantee that unauthorized parties won’t be able to defeat our security measures. You use DIVER Storage at your own risk, and are responsible for taking reasonable measures to secure your account (such as choosing a strong, unique passphrase and keeping it secret).

We are always on the lookout for vulnerabilities in DIVER Storage. If you discover a vulnerability in our service, we would be grateful for your report and encourage you to let us know immediately. If you give us reasonable time to respond to your report before making any information public, and make a good-faith effort to avoid privacy violations, destruction of data, and interruption or degradation of our service during your research, we will not pursue any legal action against you or ask law enforcement to investigate your actions.

Data Retention
