Your Data Belongs to You.
Your invoices, contracts, and personal documents belong to you - not me, not advertisers, not anyone else. Here is exactly what happens with your data.
- 100% Germany
- Your documents never leave Germany. No US servers, no EU-somewhere. Frankfurt and Falkenstein, both ISO 27001 certified.
- No AI training
- Your content is never used to train AI models. Strict data processing agreements with all providers. No exceptions.
- Delete means delete
- Everything permanently deletable anytime. No hidden copies, no fine print. Your data, your decision.
Your Data Stays in Germany. Always.
Not "EU region." Not "somewhere in Europe." Germany. Your files are stored in Frankfurt. For OCR and AI processing, the minimum required data is sent over encrypted links to Falkenstein and the results are stored back in Frankfurt. Both locations are live and stay in Germany.
