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:

  1. Maximum Security: Relies on native browser security mechanisms
  2. Cost Effective: No need to maintain extensive server storage
  3. High Efficiency: Achieves local-first, zero-latency experience
  4. 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

  1. Regular Backups: Recommend regularly exporting important data
  2. Browser Security: Keep browser versions updated
  3. Device Security: Ensure the security of the device itself
  4. 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.
