Hello. I was wondering, what’s the most private and secure cloud storage option right now.
My use case is, I’m overweight and on the journey of losing weight. I want to keep track of my body and save every kind of information about my body in a safe, secured place. Which includes captured photo of my body, medical reports and everything in between.
I don’t need paid plans of 100 GB storage and more. I’m keeping track for 1 year, and I think that’ll mostly hold up within 10 GB.
Check out koofr it is privacy focused, GDPR compliant and has 10Gb free-forever plan
If you need cloud storage, Disroot.org has 2gb free, but… For this I think something like syncthing would work well, if you even need it in multiple places.

Why does that need to be cloud storage at all? Off-line storage is the securest option, so you need a very good reason to want to put it online.
16 GB USBs are a few dollars each, buy a bunch, store duplicates across the USBs. Make sure you plug them in an use them once a month, and that will easily last you all year. And if you need to give it to your healthcare professional, just give them the USB.
Good luck on your weightloss!
This is all true. Unless someone breaks into your home to physically steal your data, offline backups will always be more secure than anyone’s cloud.
I’ve thought about keeping a copy of my own assorted data on a hard drive in a safe deposit box, though i don’t know how much that would cost. If you’re really worried about people getting into these anyway, there are ways to protect entire drives with a password.
Hi,
Filen.io, they have a free 10 Gb plan and it’s end to end encrypted.
And all my best wishes for you journey.
For low technical skill entry filen.io and proton are worth looking into.
I would recommend managing your data locally and then backing up using restic to something like Backblaze B2. Restic encrypts your backups so you don’t actually have to trust Backblaze to not spy on you.
