What people like

Zero-knowledge encryption is on by default for every file, not a paid add-on, and folder-level sharing controls are more granular than most encrypted storage competitors.

Worth knowing

Pricing runs noticeably higher than mainstream cloud storage for comparable space, and the free tier is quite limited before you have to upgrade.

Why does it score 61?

Legal jurisdiction
EFTA country HQ
Why this score?

Incorporated in Zurich, Switzerland – an EFTA country rather than a full EU member state.

25/30
Ownership & control
Acquired/corporate, EU/EFTA parent
Why this score?

Acquired by Swiss Post in 2021, which keeps ownership inside Switzerland but means Tresorit answers to a corporate parent rather than standing independently.

10/25
Data sovereignty
Mixed infra, all EU/EFTA-hosted
Why this score?

Runs on a mix of infrastructure across Switzerland, the Netherlands and Germany rather than infrastructure it owns outright everywhere.

18/30
Accountability & trust
GDPR compliant
Why this score?

GDPR-compliant, but the platform isn't open source and there's no independently published audit specific to Tresorit on record.
