Eclipse Veil was born from a simple belief: Your private conversations should stay private. In an age where every click is tracked, every message is scanned, and every photo is analyzed, we built something different.

Common questions about Eclipse Veil
No, and that's by design. Your data is encrypted with keys derived from your password, so even we cannot access it. To protect yourself, we strongly recommend setting up a recovery phrase (found in Settings > Security > Backup Recovery). This is a set of words that acts as a backup key to restore your account. Write it down on paper and store it somewhere safe - never digitally.
Our zero-knowledge architecture means your messages and files are encrypted on your device before they ever reach our servers. We physically cannot read them. We publish our security practices and are pursuing independent third-party security assessments to verify our claims.
Our encryption happens entirely on your device. We never have access to your encryption keys, so there is no backdoor we could add even if asked. Your keys are generated locally and stay on your device (encrypted). Read our Security Whitepaper for the full technical explanation.
You must be 18 years or older to create an Eclipse Veil account. We verify this during registration.
It means we designed the system so we literally cannot see what you store or send. Think of it like a safety deposit box where only you have the key - the bank (us) can hold the box but never open it. Your messages and files are scrambled into unreadable code on your phone before they leave it, and only the person you're sending to can unscramble them.
It's a set of 12 or 24 common English words (like "apple river ocean...") that act as a master backup key for your account. If you ever lose your device or forget your password, these words can restore everything. Think of it like a spare house key - keep it written on paper in a safe place, never store it digitally, and never share it with anyone.
Your data is yours. You can export all your messages and vault files at any time from Settings > Privacy > Export My Data. If we ever shut down, we would provide advance notice and extended access to export everything. Your recovery phrase also ensures you can always access your encrypted backups independently.
