Millions of people and 56% of Fortune 500 companies trust Dropbox with their most important files. We’ve earned that trust by keeping those files private and by making privacy the heart of everything we do.
The only users who can see files stored in your Dropbox account are you and the people you’ve chosen to share the file or folder with.
We won’t sell your data or information to advertisers, third parties or anyone else, for that matter.
Nothing is more important than protecting your personal data. So we built a culture of security and privacy awareness, training each employee before they get access to systems or data.
Antiquated laws that give people different protections based on where they live or maintain their citizenship don’t reflect the global nature of online services. We provide the same level of protection to all our users, and we scrutinise all the requests we receive, regardless of origin.
The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, harmonises data protection laws across Europe, bringing them up to speed with rapid technological change. Dropbox has invested heavily in GDPR compliance, forming a team of data-protection specialists and completing a full assessment of our practices.
Data management tools ease the burden on IT teams. The wealth of data and files across your organisation doesn’t have to feel like a liability. You just need to know it’s protected, under control and retrievable.
So if auditors come with questions, or if clients want to see an old file, you’re covered.
Recover any file edited or deleted within the last ten years.
Create policies that define how long content must be kept.
Preserve, track and export all documents and data relevant to litigation – without notifying end users or restricting access to files.
Permanently delete data at a specified date to comply with data-retention policies. You’ll also get alerts to upcoming file deletions.
