Data & More

Protect Your Digital Privacy with Data & More

When you switch to European solutions, we protect the data you already have

Cloud storage is where personal data accumulates. Every file uploaded, every document shared, every backup created adds to the data liability. European file hosting solves the jurisdictional question — but the content of those files still needs to be governed. Data & More protects your digital privacy by scanning cloud storage, NAS, and file shares to find personal data and enable compliant cleanup.

Privacy Monitor

Scan your entire infrastructure and get a real-time dashboard of where personal data lives, who owns it, and how old it is.

Data Minimization

Classify data across 28 languages, let data owners verify it, and delete what you have no legal right to keep.

Compliance Manager

Document your data governance and maintain audit trails for GDPR, CCPA, and ePrivacy regulation compliance.

Choosing a European alternative is your decision. Protecting the personal data you have already accumulated — in email, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and file shares — is where Data & More comes in.
