Overview

The initiative Digital Vault builds privacy-first cloud alternatives that put user data first. This project focuses on open tools that empower individuals and organizations to host, share, and collaborate without surrendering control over their information. By supporting this work, you help ensure that private data stays private, while still enabling flexible and scalable cloud capabilities.

Our aim is to deliver a sustainable, community governed project that can operate across borders and languages, with clear security practices and transparent roadmaps. This page invites you to participate and contribute to a more private, more resilient cloud ecosystem.

Why Your Support Matters

For Digital Vault, every contribution unlocks resources that advance privacy protecting infrastructure and community-led development. Your support helps us prototype and ship features that prioritize security, portability, and user autonomy. The work is conducted in the open, with peers reviewing code and decisions to maintain alignment with our shared values.

  • Strengthen privacy-preserving cloud tooling with open source collaboration
  • Expand documentation and multilingual support to reach more users
  • Improve reliability through distributed hosting and peer-to-peer options
  • Foster community governance with transparent decision making and audits
