Why Security Matters in Online Document Viewing

In an age where data breaches are becoming increasingly common, the security of your documents is paramount. When using online tools, understanding how your data is handled is the first step towards maintaining privacy.

Zero-Retention Policy

One of the most critical features of a secure online viewer is a zero-retention policy. Doconut App is designed with privacy at its core. When you upload a document to view, it is processed in memory and rendered to your browser. Once your session ends, the file is not permanently stored on our servers. This ensures that your sensitive contracts, financial reports, and personal data remain yours alone.

Encryption in Transit

Security starts the moment you start an upload. All data transmitted to and from our platform is protected by industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption. This creates a secure tunnel for your documents, preventing interception by malicious actors.

Trust and Compliance

For businesses, compliance with regulations like GDPR and HIPAA is non-negotiable. Using a secure viewer that respects data sovereignty and minimizes data footprint helps organisations meet these stringent requirements while still enjoying the convenience of cloud‑based tools.
