About Data Security
Data Storage Location
In Dessix, all user data is stored under the app.dessix.io domain. We rely on the browser's cross-origin isolation security mechanism to ensure your data cannot breach browser security limitations.
Storage Technology
IndexedDB Local Database
Data is stored in the browser's IndexedDB, which is a native local database provided by browser vendors (such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox) with the following characteristics:
- Encrypted Transmission: Supports HTTPS encrypted transmission
- Sandbox Isolation: Runs in a secure browser sandbox environment
- Native Support: Directly maintained and secured by browser vendors
Security Level
IndexedDB security is guaranteed by the browser and operates at the same security level as applications you use daily:
- Local password managers
- Offline web data
- Browser bookmarks and history
Important Note
If this mechanism were insecure, the entire modern web application ecosystem would be affected.
Data Privacy Commitment
Data Control Rights
- No Active Collection: Unless you actively export or sync data, we do not collect, transmit, or host your content
- User Control: All data access and usage is completely controlled by the user
- Transparent Operations: All data operations are performed with user visibility
Privacy Protection
- Data is stored on the user's local device
- Will not be uploaded to servers without authorization
- Complies with modern privacy protection standards
Design Philosophy
Why Choose This Approach
We trust browser security mechanisms. This approach enables:
- Maximum Security: Relies on native browser security mechanisms
- Cost Effective: No need to maintain extensive server storage
- High Efficiency: Achieves local-first, zero-latency experience
- Rapid Updates: Unlike local apps, Dessix sites can update seamlessly and quickly
Addressing Limitations
For the limitations of local storage, we provide fallback solutions:
- Sync Service (additional fee): Solves cross-device data synchronization
- Data Export: Supports user data backup export at any time
- Cloud Backup: Subscription users can enjoy cloud data backup services
Future Plans
Local Application Development
As the product matures, we will develop local apps that will:
- Address data storage transparency concerns
- Provide more localized features
- Enhance user direct control over data
Design Philosophy
We believe that giving users control over their data is a design choice that combines security, freedom, and futurism.
Security Recommendations
User-Side Security Measures
- Regular Backups: Recommend regularly exporting important data
- Browser Security: Keep browser versions updated
- Device Security: Ensure the security of the device itself
- Cautious Operations: Avoid using in unsafe network environments
Data Protection Best Practices
- Use the latest versions of mainstream browsers
- Regularly clean unnecessary data
- Enable browser security features
- Consider using sync services for data backup
Other Questions
Q: Will data be accessed by third parties?
A: No. Data is stored in the browser's IndexedDB, protected by browser security mechanisms, and cannot be accessed by third-party websites.
Q: What if browser data is cleared?
A: We recommend regularly exporting data backups or subscribing to our sync service to protect data security.
Q: Is this storage method really secure?
A: Yes. This is the standard practice for modern web applications. Security is guaranteed by browser vendors and operates at the same security level as other web applications you use.
