Yes! Anyone can encrypt files with NordLocker. Our free plan also comes with 3 GB of private cloud storage for your files.

Files are encrypted and stored on your computer. With NordLocker, local encryption is free and unlimited.

It depends on what files you need on hand. If you’re going to use a private cloud for sync, transfer the files you use regularly. If you use NordLocker as a file backup, upload all of your important documents and precious memories. This way, if your device gets damaged or stolen, you won’t lose a single file.

Yes, absolutely! Anything you sync via the cloud is secured on your computer with your encryption key first. That means that no one can know what you store without your permission, not even us.

If you get close to your storage limit, the app will notify you — then you can either delete some files or upgrade. If you go over the plan limit, you will still be able to use the app, but the sync feature will be limited.

Similarly to going over the storage limit, you can still use NordLocker to encrypt but not sync when your plan ends. But NordLocker never deletes users’ files. Whenever you’re ready to upgrade again, your files will be waiting for you just like you left them.
