The Ackaia General Privacy Policy also states that Ackaia does not sell personal information for money and does not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

This is different from using the contents of your encrypted files to build an advertising profile.

What about cookies?

CipherDrive may use cookies, local storage, session storage, IndexedDB, or similar technologies for operational purposes such as authentication, security, preferences, local cryptographic state, performance, and guest transfer accounting.

Guest identifiers used to enforce transfer limits are intended for service operation, not cross-site advertising or commercial behavioral profiling.

Can privacy-law definitions of “sale” or “sharing” be broader?

Yes. Some privacy laws use specialized definitions of “sale” or “sharing” that can include certain advertising, analytics, or tracking practices even when no money changes hands.

If Ackaia introduces a practice that legally qualifies as a sale or sharing, its policies state that Ackaia will provide required notices and choices where applicable.

Does Ackaia share information with service providers?

Yes. Using vendors to host infrastructure, process payments, deliver email, provide support, operate security systems, or perform other defined services is different from selling data for advertising.

Service providers are intended to process information only for the defined purposes necessary to provide services to Ackaia and subject to applicable contractual, legal, or technical safeguards.

CipherDrive's privacy model is not funded by reading your encrypted files for advertising.
