Why Clann is different
We get it. With apps similar to ours out there, what makes Clann different? To make your decision easier without adding more noise to the sea of options, here’s why Clann is your go-to for your family needs.
Private & Secure Family Photo Storage
When you upload photos to share with your family, they're stored securely in the cloud. Think of it like a private vault that only your family members have the key to.
- Your photos are stored in private, locked storage that's not accessible to the public internet
- Photos are accessed through secure, time-limited links that expire automatically
- Only people who are logged into your family group can see your photos
Encrypted Messages
When you send messages in your family chat, they're protected by encryption. Think of encryption like a secret code that scrambles your messages so that only people with the right key can read them.
- Each family group has its own unique encryption key
- Only family members in your group can unscramble and read the messages
- Even our own servers can't read your messages - they're stored in encrypted form
We Don't Use Your Data - Seriously
Your photos, messages, and personal information belong to you. We're committed to keeping it that way.
- We never sell your data - Your information is never sold to third parties, advertisers, or data brokers
- No AI training - Your photos and messages are never used to train artificial intelligence models
- No advertising - We don't use your data for targeted ads or marketing purposes
- No data sharing - We don't share your information with other companies or services
- Your data is yours - We only use your data to provide the service you signed up for: sharing memories with your family
Family-Only Access
We believe your family memories should stay within your family. (Or friends you consider family!) We've designed our system so that your data is only accessible to people you explicitly invite.
- All content is restricted to your family group members
- Invite-only access ensures strangers can't view your photos
- Can create more than one family group for different child profiles
Ongoing Security and Protection
We continuously work to keep your data safe with regular security updates and best practices. This includes:
- Regular security audits and updates
- Secure data transmission using HTTPS encryption
- Secure server infrastructure with industry-standard protections
