Many cloud storage providers require your full trust that they will not look at your files. The alternatives listed below eliminate the need for trust by either putting you in control of your data or by implementing E2EE.

We recommend checking if your Nextcloud provider supports E2EE, otherwise you have to trust the provider to not look at your files.

When self-hosting, you should also enable E2EE to protect against your hosting provider snooping on your data.

When using a web client, you are placing trust in the server to send you proper JavaScript code to derive the decryption key and authentication token locally in your browser. A compromised server can send you malicious JavaScript code to steal your master password and decrypt your data. If this does not fit your [threat model ](basics/threat-modeling.md ), consider using an alternative.
