Private cloud storage for your photos, videos, files and folders. Back up your important data, free up space on your devices, and keep your files under your control. Built for privacy and data sovereignty. Private & encrypted Your files are encrypted on your device before they leave it and can only be decrypted with your private key. Your private key stays under your control. Neither DeNet nor Datakeepers can access or decrypt your files. Decentralized Your encrypted files are split into multiple parts and distributed across a decentralized network of independent storage providers called Datakeepers. No single Datakeeper stores your complete file, creating a storage system without a single point of failure. Automatic backup Automatically back up photos, videos, files and folders from your devices. Keep important data protected and free up space without deleting the files you want to keep. One account across your devices Use the same private key across mobile, Windows, macOS and Linux. Access and synchronize your files across devices with one account. Flexible storage, not a fixed subscription You pay for the storage you actually use — not for a fixed subscription period. Your storage balance is consumed based on the amount of data you store. If you don't store data, your balance isn't consumed. Store more, and your balance is used faster. Store less, and it lasts longer. Free to install. No ads. DeNet is free to install and contains no third-party advertising. Explore the DeNet ecosystem The DeNet app gives you access to more than storage. You can also run a Watcher Node directly from the same app and participate in the ecosystem built on the DeNet Storage Protocol.
