Any data backed up using the Services can only be retrieved using your key and if you forget or misplace this key then your data may not be retrievable.
It is very important that you store your user defined private key in a safe place and maintain this key in printed form for reference. Should you choose to use a user defined private key for encrypting your data, IDrive personnel will not have access to this key and it will not be stored on the IDrive servers. While your data is still encrypted, IDrive personnel may still be able to decrypt your data using your Registration Information if such a situation should ever arise. If you choose the default encryption option, the system chooses a key for encrypting your data. For web and mobile based data transfers, data is sent over an encrypted channel with server side AES 256-bit encryption. This encryption process encrypts the data contained within the file and not the file-name itself. Based on your privacy and security needs, you need to make an appropriate encryption key choice. IDrive supports 256-bit AES data encryption before transmission from your computer using either (i) a default key or (ii) an optional user defined private key created by you. I was just wondering if filenames are encrypted on IDrive's servers when using private key encryption.
