Foldora Privacy

Learn how Foldora's local organization workflow reduces cloud exposure for messy folders and sensitive files.

Direct answer

Learn how Foldora's local organization workflow reduces cloud exposure for messy folders and sensitive files. Foldora keeps the organization workflow local and lets you review changes before applying them.

What to know

Organization runs locally

Foldora is positioned around local analysis. Files do not need to be uploaded to a cloud organizer for the organization workflow.

Checkout is separate from file organization

Internet access is needed for purchase, download, and updates. The checkout provider does not need your file names or file contents.

Preview is still important

Privacy does not prevent filing mistakes. Review proposed folders and filenames before moving or renaming important documents.
