  • File operations are performed based on AI agent instructions
  • We do not access or analyze the AI conversation context, only the file operations requested

Data Security

All data transmissions are protected using industry-standard TLS encryption. Files are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption standards.

Infrastructure Partners

We utilize trusted third-party service providers for infrastructure operations:

  • AWS (Amazon Web Services) for cloud infrastructure and storage
