Internxt

Internxt is open-source, zero-knowledge encrypted cloud storage for saving and syncing files with maximum privacy: everything is encrypted on your device before it's uploaded, and the code is public on GitHub so the claims can be independently verified. It's used by privacy-focused people who want a European alternative to Big Tech clouds — a place to keep documents, photos and videos that only they can read, backed by GDPR and open-source transparency.

Internxt's paid storage starts from US$9.99/mo for its 1 TB tier, and there's a free plan to begin without paying anything. Two things bring the real cost down: frequent first-year promotions that discount that rate sharply, and one-time lifetime plans that replace the subscription entirely — pay once, keep the storage. Larger 3 TB and 5 TB tiers, plus bundles that add a VPN and antivirus, sit above. For open-source, zero-knowledge storage the value is strong, though it's the lifetime deals and promotions, rather than the standing price, where it really shines.

Yes. Internxt is a Spanish company (Valencia) with zero-knowledge, client-side encryption, open-source apps and full GDPR compliance. Its transparency is a genuine trust advantage — anyone can audit the code, and independent security reviews have verified its zero-knowledge design. It's a younger, smaller company than pCloud or MEGA, which is the main thing to weigh: fewer years of track record and a smaller team. But on the fundamentals that matter for privacy — encryption model, jurisdiction and auditability — it's as solid as anything in this comparison.

Yes — Internxt has a permanent free tier (it starts small, around 1 GB, and you can expand it through simple tasks and referrals), with the same encryption as the paid plans. It's modest, but fine for testing the service or storing a handful of sensitive documents. Because the paid 1 TB tier and its lifetime deals are competitively priced, upgrading later costs less than with most rivals if you outgrow the free space.

Valencia, Spain. Internxt develops its open-source apps there and operates under EU privacy law (GDPR), so your data falls under European jurisdiction rather than US or Canadian. That's a strong privacy position — though, like most European providers here, it means there's no Canadian data centre, something residency-sensitive users should factor in.

It's the youngest and smallest provider in our lineup, and it shows in a few places: sync speeds and app polish trail pCloud and Dropbox, there's no built-in document editing or rich collaboration, and it doesn't keep file version history. Storage regions are European, with no Canadian option. The compensation is real — aggressive pricing, open-source code you can audit, and zero-knowledge encryption by default. For pure encrypted file storage on a budget it's excellent; if you need team workflows, versioning or a big integration ecosystem, look to a larger rival.
