Why Clann is different
We take your family's privacy seriously. Your memories are precious, and we've built multiple layers of security to keep them safe and private.
Private 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
- Your photos are never shared with third parties or used for advertising
- We don't scan or analyze your photos for any purpose other than displaying them to your family
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 - like a unique lock that only your family's key fits
- Your messages are scrambled into code before they leave your phone or device
- 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
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
Secure Authentication
Your account is protected with strong authentication methods to ensure only you can access your family's memories.
- Passwords are securely hashed using industry-standard encryption
- Secure token-based authentication for app access
- Session tokens expire automatically for added security
Family-Only Access
We believe your family memories should stay within your 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
- You control who sees your photos and when

- Your memories stay within your family group - we never share your data with anyone else
