Security

Answers to the trust questions buyers ask before registering interest.

Who can read my files?

Only approved users with access to the relevant vault and local keys.

Where are keys stored?

Encryption keys are managed on trusted devices during secure setup.

What if a device is compromised?

Remove access, rotate credentials, and rely on recovery workflows.

How does recovery work?

Recovery is designed around saved keys and trusted device setup.

Why approval is required

Locked Store is built for businesses that handle sensitive information, and we review each request to keep every vault secure.

What Locked Store can see

Nothing. Your data never reaches us.

Locked Store cannot access any of your data. Your files and vault contents live in your desktop and phone apps, and are unlocked only with the private key issued to you during setup.

  • We cannot open, read or search your files.
  • We do not keep a copy of your private key.
  • Without your key, your data stays unreadable to everyone, including us.

On your device

  • Your keyMade on your device. It never leaves.
  • Your vaultsOpened with your key.

At Locked Store

  • No keysWe never receive or store them.
  • No readable filesEverything stays unreadable to us.
Your key is created on your device. We never hold it.

How access works

Every person has a key. Only they hold it.

Your app handles all of it automatically. Nobody manages keys by hand.

01

Each vault opens only for people you add

Vault
  • Owner
  • Team member
  • Not added
A new person gets their own key. Nobody else can open the vault.
02

Remove someone and the lock changes

  • Owner
  • Ana
  • Ben
  • Owner
  • Ana
  • Ben
Ben’s old key no longer opens anything. The lock also changes regularly.
03

Lose your key? A second owner restores you

  • Key lost
  • Second owner
  • Access restored
Recovery comes from another owner, never from us. Add a second owner to every vault that matters.

We never hold your keys, so we can’t open your data.
