Plain language
Security and privacy
What the early build actually does, without the lab vocabulary.
Your files stay on your hardware
The family's files live on a disk or network folder you control. This marketing website never receives them. There is no FA7Labs account that holds the photo library.
One program in the house is the lock
That home program is the only thing that may decide who can open, upload, or delete a file. A modified app cannot talk itself into someone else's private folder. Private files stay hidden. A shared folder is allowed only for the people included in it.
Sign-in stays at home
Passwords are not stored in a form that can be read back. They are saved only as a slow, strong hash on the home program. This website does not have a sign-in.
What this version does not do
It does not open the files from outside the house. It does not encrypt the disk against someone who takes the drive away. It is an early build, not a finished public security review, and we do not claim it has been tested on your model of router or disk.
Storage is not backup
Keeping files on a home disk is not the same as a second copy. If that disk fails, Home Files Storage does not by itself bring the files back.
