About CloudSync

We believe file synchronization should be invisible, secure, and effortless. That's what we're building.

Our story

CloudSync Solutions was founded in 2019 by a team of engineers and cryptographers at ETH Zurich who were frustrated with the trade-off between security and usability in existing file sync solutions. We set out to prove that zero-knowledge encryption doesn't have to mean a clunky user experience.

Today, CloudSync protects over 4 billion files for 12,400+ organizations across 47 countries. We're headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland — a jurisdiction with some of the strongest data privacy laws in the world — with engineering offices in Berlin and Lisbon.

We're backed by leading European VCs and are proudly profitable since 2022. We've never sold user data, never will, and our zero-knowledge architecture makes it technically impossible for us to access your files.

What we stand for

Our values aren't a poster on the wall. They're encoded into every technical decision we make.

Privacy by design

We can't read your data — not "we won't," but we can't. Our zero-knowledge architecture means encryption keys never leave your device. Even under a Swiss court order, we have nothing to hand over.

Reliability first

Your sync agent should be the last thing you think about. We engineer for 99.98% uptime, test on every OS release before it ships, and run chaos engineering exercises quarterly.

Transparency

Our encryption protocol is documented publicly. We publish independent security audit results annually. Our pricing has no hidden fees. What you see is what you get.
