Yes, your data is very secure. It can only be accessed by you or someone with whom you have shared your password.

In comparison to local storage, it is in practice a more secure and wise solution to store confidential data in a central, well guarded server complex. When a PC or laptop is infected with a virus, it could potentally harness locally stored data and send it to the makers or 'users' of the virus, a risk that is avoided using Aprd.net. Physically accessing a PC or laptop and quickly copying data is a real risk, compared to the impossibility of pysically accessing the servers of Aprd.net, which are professionally guarded, 24 hours per day, with biometric access allowance only.

The maintainer of the physical servers is an important member of The Cloud Security Alliance,which is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to promote the use of best practices for providing security assurance within cloud computing. One of the mechanisms the Cloud Security Alliance uses in pursuit of its mission is the Security, Trust, and Assurance Registry (STAR)—a free, publicly accessible registry that documents the security controls provided by various cloud computing offerings. The internal security controls meet Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance and are assisted by renomated 3rd party auditor security walkthroughs and secured by proven physical and environmental controls, maintaining strict information security policies.security To ensure consistent standards for merchants, the PCI Security Standards Council established Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standards. These standards incorporate best practices to protect cardholder data, such as credit cards, and they often require validation from a third-party Qualified Service Assessor (QSA).The cloud platform use to store your data meets all of the necessary requirements for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) on the data center/service provider side (The U.S. HIPAA requires specific security controls for businesses that store or process protected health information online).
