As firm believers in the protection of our users’ privacy, we offer a private, secure, and end-to-end encrypted file storage & syncing solution to give you full control over your data. Today, we are proud to announce that we found a way to improve the privacy of Private.Storage further: ProxyStore is now available as a gateway to purchase storage-time for use on Private.Storage. This milestone further enhances privacy with our service by empowering people to choose the payment method that aligns best with their privacy preferences and needs.
ProxyStore offers people the option of a brick-and-mortar store (in Leipzig, Germany), an online shop (also as Tor Hidden Service), and access to digital goods all while safeguarding user privacy. They operate with a data-minimizing approach, ensuring that neither ProxyStore itself nor its users become a commodity for third parties. For us, the critical aspect of data privacy comes in the form of payment processing, where ProxyStore accepts various forms of payment, including:
- Cash payment in their store
- Cash by mail in 20 currencies
- Monero and Bitcoin
- SEPA bank transfer
We believe privacy-conscious users seeking secure payment alternatives will find ProxyStore to be a logical addition to our service. It offers a seamless and confidential way to purchase storage-time and empowering users with control over personal financial data without sacrificing convenience or security.
We hope you are excited by our continued reinforcement of our commitment to privacy and data security. We encourage our readers to review the ProxyStore website and privacy policy to make a self-informed decision about using their service. Together, we can continue to promote the use of privacy-centric solutions in cloud data storage and synchronization.
