About Infomaniak kDrive
kDrive is a sovereign cloud storage and collaboration platform developed and hosted exclusively in Switzerland by Infomaniak. It is designed to provide a secure alternative to major US-based cloud services, specifically positioning itself as non-compliant with the US Cloud Act to ensure higher data privacy for sensitive information. The service adheres to both the GDPR and the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nLPD). The platform supports a wide range of needs, from individual users with a free 15GB tier to enterprises requiring up to 106TB of storage. It features deep integration with office suites like OnlyOffice and Microsoft Office Online, allowing real-time collaboration on documents. Security is a core focus, with data being triple-saved across two different datacenters and featuring client-side management tools for access control, SSO, and user administration.
