# Mauvely Cloud

> Browser-based encrypted storage. Files, names and thumbnails are encrypted before upload, so the server holds data it has no key to read.

Mauvely Cloud stores files it cannot read. Encryption happens in your browser, before anything is
uploaded, using keys that never reach the server in a usable form.

## What is encrypted

| Encrypted     | Visible to the server               |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| File contents | How many files and folders you have |
| File names    | The approximate size of each file   |
| MIME types    | The shape of your folder tree       |
| Thumbnails    | Creation and modification times     |
| Folder names  | Who you have shared with, and when  |

Nothing in that right-hand column is a secret we are keeping — it is published in the
[security page](/cloud/security) because a threat model that lists only strengths is marketing.

## What you can do with it

* **Upload files up to 5 GB each**, encrypted in 4 MiB chunks as they leave the browser.
* **Organise into folders**, rename, move, and recover from a trash that you empty yourself.
* **Preview** images, video, audio and text in the browser without downloading.
* **Keep version history** — 10 versions on Pro, 30 on Max, with restore.
* **Share with a person** by email address, as a viewer, commenter or editor.
* **Share by link**, optionally with a password, an expiry date and a download limit.
* **Revoke** either kind of access at any time.

## Plans

| Plan | Storage | Versions kept |
| ---- | ------- | ------------- |
| Free | 2 GB    | Current only  |
| Pro  | 200 GB  | 10            |
| Max  | 1 TB    | 30            |

## The trade you are making

Because Mauvely holds no key to your files, **Mauvely cannot get you back into them**. There is no
administrative override and no password reset that recovers data — either would be a key we hold,
which would make the whole claim false.

Your password and your 24-word recovery phrase are the two things that open your vault. Lose both
and the files are gone.

## Planned

Shared team workspaces, per-app syncing from Compose and Snap, and native desktop and mobile
clients are all designed but **not built**. Cloud today is a single-user encrypted drive with
sharing.
