Security & Data Protection
Your thoughts are precious. Learn how we protect your most personal reflections with enterprise-grade security.
End-to-End Encryption
AES-256 encryption protects your data at rest and in transit
Zero-Knowledge Architecture
We can't access your decrypted journal entries
Secure Infrastructure
SOC 2 compliant hosting with regular security audits
Privacy by Design
Built from the ground up with privacy as a core principle
Data Encryption
Encryption at Rest
- • AES-256 encryption for all stored data
- • Unique encryption keys for each user account
- • Key rotation performed automatically every 90 days
- • Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) protect encryption keys
Encryption in Transit
- • TLS 1.3 for all client-server communications
- • Certificate pinning prevents man-in-the-middle attacks
- • Perfect Forward Secrecy ensures past sessions remain secure
- • HSTS enforcement prevents downgrade attacks
Zero-Knowledge Architecture
Your journal entries are encrypted on your device before being sent to our servers. We never have access to your unencrypted personal thoughts or reflections. Even our AI analysis happens on encrypted data using privacy-preserving techniques.
