NXdrive Security Overview

Last Revised: Tuesday, Jan. 12th, 2016

NXdrive provides multiple security features, including those described below, though some features may be available only to users who have subscribed to certain levels of service.

1. Redundancy and Separation

NXdrive is a DDS (Distributed Data Storage) system with innovative features for storing and protecting your data and information. It excludes the storage of an entire file into one single data server. Files you store using NXdrive are split into multiple chunks, each of which is stored on a separate data server. Information coding technology is employed for generating these chunks and thus each chunk contains certain data redundancy. NXdrive's separation and encoding also provides for a high degree of redundancy among servers, allowing your data to be maintained and regenerated even if one or more of the servers used for storing that data is compromised.

2. Multiple Options for Key Management

All NXdrive users are allowed to upload their data in the form of complete files, in which case we will divide that data into chunks and encrypt the chunks using our remote systems. For users who choose this approach, NXdrive will manage the keys used to encrypt the chunks which are stored on our servers. NXdrive TOP security users have the additional option of separating their data into chunks and encrypting those chunks using NXdrive client software which the user would install on his or her local device. For users who choose this option, we would still store the chunks on separate servers for high redundancy and security as described above. However, the keys used to encrypt the chunks would be managed by the user.

3. Two Layers of Encryption

Before splitting your data file, NXdrive adds a layer of encryption on the entire data file. Each data chunk is again encrypted individually. Instead of single key applying to all chunks, the encryption keys vary from chunk to chunk. As a result, even a hacker who was able to compromise multiple servers would be unable to access your information without separately decrypting each of the chunks necessary to reconstruct your file.

4. Data Recovery

Your original data file can be recovered although your data information is sliced into multiple encrypted pieces.

5. Cyber Security Attacks

Your data is sliced, encoded, and encrypted into multiple chunks. If any chunk is accessed without authorization, the hacker does not obtain any useful information about your data file. Even if a hacker were to obtain access to an entire data storage server, because of the way data is encoded and encrypted by NXdrive the hacker will not obtain any useful information. At the same, you don't need to worry loss of data when the hacker modifies and destroys the data chunks. NXdrive is able to regenerate new chunks to replace the damaged ones. NXdrive encryption follows the AES-256 standard, which is the considered by many experts to be one of the most secure encryption standards.

6. Secure Data Transfers and Third Party Software

NXDrive's client software implements a secure channel using 256-bit SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption which is a standard for secure Internet network connections. If your device supports it, your data files are encrypted during transmission to the NXdrive. Otherwise, such a service will not provide to you.

DISCLAIMER

This document is an overview of InfoBeyond Technology LLC's (InfoBeyond) security practices that is current as of the date of this document, and it is intended to be used for informational purposes only. This document, and NXdrive's underlying security policies, can be changed without notice. This document does not create any covenants, warranties, representations, or assurances from InfoBeyond or any of its affiliates, suppliers or licensors. It does not create a contract between you and InfoBeyond or any obligations on InfoBeyond. The responsibilities and liabilities of InfoBeyond are controlled by the agreements entered into between you and InfoBeyond. This document is not part of and does not modify any agreement between you and InfoBeyond.

While, as described above, NXdrive uses a multi-dimensional approach to protect your data, no system can provide 100% protection. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security of your data. NXdrive's products AND services are provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. To the fullest extent allowed by law, InfoBeyond disclaims all warranties for NXdrive, including warranties of merchantability, FITNESS for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

NXdrive Privacy Policy

Last Revised: Tuesday, Jan. 12th, 2016

Customers access NXdrive for data storage or any other services provided by InfoBeyond Technologies LLC through the website www.nxdrive.com and as more fully described on the website (collectively, the "Services"). Our customers will generally use a Device to access the Services. A "Device" means any hardware used to access the Services and could be, but is not limited to, a desktop, laptop, tablet, smartphone, or any other electronic device. In addition to Devices, the Services could use an Internet browser, NXdrive client software tools or apps installed on your Device, APIs, operating systems, or applications of third parties. This Privacy Policy explains our data practices with respect to information we collect in connection the Services.

In particular, this Privacy Policy explains:

  • What information we may collect;
  • How we use your information;
  • How we protect your information;
  • Under what circumstances we can share your information with third parties;
  • How you can update your information and our information retention policies; and
  • How to contact us and change your privacy preferences.

PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE WEBSITE OR ANY OF OUR SERVICES. BY ACCESSING AND/OR USING THE WEBSITE (OTHER THAN TO READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY FOR THE FIRST TIME), YOU ARE AGREEING TO THE PRIVACY PRACTICES DESCRIBED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY, WHICH MAY CHANGE FROM TIME TO TIME.

IF YOU ARE LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES, YOU CONSENT TO TRANSFER YOUR INFORMATION TO THE UNITED STATES WHERE OUR SERVERS ARE BASED.

1. Information We Collect

We collect two types of information about you: personally identifiable information ("PII") and non-personally identifiable information. We define PII to include any information that may be used to specifically to identify or contact you, such as your name, email address, telephone number, credit card or other billing information, and home and business mailing addresses. Certain information may not be personally identifiable when standing alone (e.g. your date of birth), but may be personally identifiable when combined with other information (e.g. your date of birth and your mailing address).

In some instances you may provide certain information to us if, for example, you choose to sign up for our Services. User name, email, and billing information are necessary to receive our Services. Some information may be not necessary for our Services, such as non-billing address and phone number, and you are not encouraged to provide them to us. Our Privacy Policy is to minimize the collection and saving of your personal and data information to protect your privacy. However, in order to provide Services, we may automatically collect information when you visit our website or use our Services.

The following information may be collected, reviewed, analyzed, and stored while providing NXdrive Service to you:

  • Information you give us : We collect your PII when you register an NXdrive account and subscribe to our Services. This PII includes your name, email address, credit card or other billing information. We may also collect your social networking information with your permission. For example, you may allow us to import your contacts by giving us access to your third party accounts (for example, your Facebook account), allowing us to use your social networking information, or both. When you invite others to join NXdrive, we will send them an invitation email with your referral. If you choose to share any data files, folders, or other functions with others, you may provide us with your contacts' email addresses or other information.
  • Information from the use of NXdrive Services : We may collect information in connection with your use of the Services. This information includes both PII and non-personally identifiable information, and may include:
  • Device Information : We may collect your device information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and IP address) for the purpose of effectively providing data operations (e.g., transmissions), security operations, storage management, and other Services that you request. We will not collect your location and phone number during the Service unless you agree to do so.
  • Data Files : We receive, collect, and store the data files that you upload, download, or access with the NXdrive Services. Your data files will be processed, such as by use of fragmentation and encryption, to maintain the data reliability, data redundancy, data confidentiality, and data recoverability, according to your subscribed Services. NXdrive provides the function for you to permanently delete your data files.
  • Log-in Information : When you use the Services, we may automatically collect and store certain information from your interactions between Devices and NXdrive. The information could be the type of Device and software used for Services. It also includes your interactions during the Services, such as Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browsers, date and time stamps associated with transactions, and other interactions with the Services.
  • Cookies : For the purpose of improving our Services, we may collect and store cookie information when you visit NXdrive and conduct Services. For example, cookies could be used to save your account user name and the password for your future logins to the Services.
2. How We Use the Information We Collect

In general, we will use the information that you provide for the purpose for which you provided it including providing Services to you. In addition, we may use the collected information to provide, maintain, protect and improve all our NXdrive Services as follows:

  • Billing and Accounting: The bank information provided by you will be used for regular billing and accounting purposes. The billing process may go through authorized third parties and thus your information will be transferred to them for authentication, charging, authorization, and accounting. We may notify you by email when we process your payment.
  • Services Improvement: The collected information may be used by us to improve our Services. In addition to data storage, we may use the collected data for NXdrive system maintenance, database management, web analytics, payment processing, and improvement of the Service’s features.
  • Administration and Analysis: Information will be used for administration of your registration account, your subscribed Services, and your stored data. We may contact you by using your phone or email for customer service or other reasons in connection with your request, or if we think it is necessary. The collected data may be used for analyzing the customers and their uses of our Services. We may publicly share aggregated information and analytic results that are statistical results of our Services, which do not contain PII.
  • Preference and Personalized Services: Your PII may be used by us to better understand your needs and interests. Based on your preferences and our understanding of your needs and interests, we use your information to personalize your Services to improve your experience.
  • Announcements and Communications: We may provide or offer software updates and product announcements that we believe will be helpful to you based upon your use of the Services. If you are no longer interesting in receiving email or other communications from us, you should update your account by the "unsubscribe" instructions provided in any of those communications or update your account settings.
  • Preferences Setting: The web page will automatically display your personal information, such as user name, once you login your NXdrive account. The information disclosure on the web page can be customized by you in accordance with the preferences you set for your account. You are able to review and revise your profile and preferences at any time. Any information you choose to provide should reflect how much you want others to know about you. We do not sell your PII to third parties. However, we may share or disclose your PII upon your express or implied consent, for example, if you use a third party application to access your account. Through certain features of the Services, you may also have the ability to make some of your information public. For example, you may post notes on Facebook or by use of any other social media. We will not publicize this information without your involvement and consent.
3. Other Uses and Information

(A) Other Uses. Except as described in this policy, we don’t allow your information to be disclosed to any individuals, business partners, or other third parties unless it is permitted by you. However, and notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right to disclose your data files or personal information that we collect when we believe the disclosure is permitted or required by law. Some reasons could be (i) Compliance with laws and regulations, (ii) Compulsory legal request, (iii) in an emergency to protect or defend the health or safety of our Website’s users or the general public;, (iv) Prevention of fraud and security attacks of NXdrive and the customers, (iv) Protection of NXdrive’s our legal rights or property, or our Website. If we provide your NXdrive files to a law enforcement agency as set forth above, we may remove NXdrive’s encryption from the fragments and recover the original files before providing them to law enforcement. On the other hand, we are unable to recover your files that you encrypted prior to storing them on NXdrive, or certain security credentials or fragments are maintained at your sides and they are necessary for reconstructing the data file.

(B) Transfer of Assets. As we continue to develop our business, we may sell or purchase assets. If another entity acquires us or all (or substantially all) the information that we have about you will be transferred to and used by this acquiring entity, though we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your preferences are followed. Also, if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, all such information may be considered an asset of ours and as such may be sold or transferred to third parties.

(C) Your California Privacy Rights. Residents of the State of California, under certain provisions of the California Civil Code, have the right to request from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to which the company has disclosed certain personally-identifiable information as defined under California law during the preceding year for third party direct marketing purposes. You are limited to one request per calendar year. In your request, please attest to the fact that you are a California resident and provide a current California address for our response. You may request the information in writing as set forth in Section 10 below.

4. User Forums

Our Services may offer publicly accessible user forums such as blogs, forums, and wikis. The protections described in this Privacy Policy do not apply when you provide information (including personal information) in connection with your use of these user forums. We may use PII and non-PII about you to identify you with a posting in a public forum maintained by us. You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them. Your posts may remain even after you cancel your account. We are not responsible for events arising from the distribution of any information you choose to publicly post or share in a user forum through our website.

5. How We Protect Your Information

We have implemented security measures we consider reasonable and appropriate to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. Please be advised, however, that while we strive to protect your PII and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and are not responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your PII. In the unfortunate event that your "PII (as the term or similar terms are defined by any applicable law requiring notice upon a security breach) is compromised, we may notify you by e-mail (at our sole and absolute discretion) to the last e-mail address you have provided us in the most expedient time reasonable under the circumstances; provided, however, delays in notification may occur while we take necessary measures to determine the scope of the breach and restore reasonable integrity to the system, as well as for the legitimate needs of law enforcement if notification would impede a criminal investigation. From time to time we evaluate new technology for protecting information, and when appropriate, we upgrade our information security systems.

6. Links to Other Websites

Our website may link to or contain links to other third party websites that we do not control or maintain. We are not responsible for the privacy practices employed by any third party website. We encourage you to note when you leave our website and to read the privacy statements of all third party websites before submitting any personally identifiable information.

7. Information Update and Retention

If you are a registered customer, you can review, update, change, correct, or delete your information in your account. According to your change on the account, we may update our collected information. We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as it is needed to provide you the Services. If you no longer desire our Services, you may update or delete your information on your account settings or even completely delete your account from the NXdrive.

We may retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Consistent with these requirements, we will try to delete your information quickly upon request. Please note, however, that there might be latency in deleting information from our servers and backed-up versions might exist after deletion. In addition, we do not delete from our Servers for the files that you have in common with other users.

8. Child Access Prohibited

NXdrive Services are prohibited to any child under 18 and they are not allowed to register for our Services. If you are the parent or guardian of any child under 18 and believe that he or she has registered for our Services or otherwise disclosed PII for us to use, please contact us at [email protected]. If we become aware of any account registered by a child under 18, we will delete the account and the registration information from our files.

9. Enforcement

When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made the complaint to follow up. We work with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that we cannot resolve with our users directly.
