Hidden Risks of Cloud-Based Compression Tools
Most online video compressors require uploading your files to their servers, exposing your content to serious privacy and security risks
Cloud Processing Vulnerabilities
- ⚠Data Theft & Unauthorized Access: Your videos are stored on third-party servers where they can be accessed by employees, hackers, or government agencies without your knowledge.
- ⚠Permanent Storage & Misuse: Companies may keep your videos indefinitely, use them for AI training, sell to data brokers, or repurpose for marketing without consent.
- ⚠Cross-Border Data Transfer: Your files may be processed in countries with weaker privacy laws, making them subject to foreign surveillance and data harvesting.
- ⚠No Guarantee of Deletion: Even when companies claim to delete files, there's no way to verify complete removal from all servers, backups, and caches worldwide.
Privacy Risk Alert
Cloud-based compression tools expose your sensitive content to third parties, data breaches, and unauthorized access. Choose browser-based processing for complete privacy protection.
Real-World Privacy Concerns
Major Data Breaches
Cloud services suffer regular breaches exposing millions of files. Your videos could be among them.
Government Surveillance
Many countries require cloud providers to grant access to stored data without user notification.
Vendor Control
Once uploaded, you lose control over how your content is stored, processed, or shared.
