Driveo is and will remain completely free. Our philosophy is based on data protection, transparency, and security, which is why we:
Our servers are located in Germany and are subject to the strict German data protection standards (GDPR, BDSG, etc.). This means we place the highest demands on the protection of your data – not only legally but out of conviction.
From the beginning, it was clear to us: Data protection is non-negotiable. Therefore, we consciously do not work with large corporations like Google or Microsoft. The only exception is Cloudflare, which we use specifically for DNS security and DDoS protection.
The idea for Driveo came from a real experience: A friend became the victim of a hack – and his confidential data was published through a similar file-sharing service. Imagine you are working on an important project, and suddenly it is stolen and published. Or even worse: Your files contain personal and sensitive data that ends up in the wrong hands.
This is where Driveo comes in:
With Driveo, you can be sure that your files stay protected – whether personal or business-related.
We do not review any data uploaded to Driveo – because data protection begins with trust. Your files are and will remain your property.
However, we are aware that our service could be misused. If you come across a Driveo link with illegal content, please report it to us immediately. We take abuse reports very seriously and will remove such files from our servers immediately.
Currently, the operating costs of Driveo are manageable, so we cover them ourselves. This includes:
In the future, we may introduce optional premium features – but don’t worry: Driveo will always remain free.
Paid features could relate to additional storage, customization options, or enhanced features. Our goal is to offer cool extras for those who wish to support us, while everyone else can continue using the service completely free of charge.
If you have any questions or need assistance, we are always here for you.
