Philosophy

Our Approach to Privacy

Zero Data Retention

StormyCloud operates on a simple philosophy: we do not retain logs.

  • All servers automatically purge logs every 15 minutes
  • We do not keep logs of any kind
  • We do not provide information to any law enforcement agency
  • All public inquiries from law enforcement will be published on this page

Because we don't retain data, we cannot provide what we don't have.

Signed Statement

Warrant Canary

A signed warrant canary will be published quarterly (January, April, July, and October) to ensure that StormyCloud has not been compromised by any third-party using a subpoena. You can download the warrant and the PGP key.
