About Onlime
Our story, vision and mission
Since 2012 we have delivered security and reliability with our cloud service to thousands of Danes. Read the story and the thinking behind it here.
In brief
A local cloud service, built on data ethics.
Onlime is an online backup and storage service, and a blog with news and guidance on securing your digital life.
We're especially here for individuals and SMEs in Denmark, with a Danish service built on data ethics. We don't sell your data.
Onlime was founded in 2012 by Levi Rauff and Mathias Ditlev and was among the first in Denmark to offer unlimited cloud storage. Above 5 TB we reduce the upload speed.
Vision and mission
What we want, and how.
Our vision
Onlime wants to be the preferred local cloud service for individuals and SMEs in Denmark, and in time across the Nordics.
Our mission
We do that with a simple, transparent service: one subscription, support from real people, and a data center that runs on 100% Norwegian hydropower.
Our business is funded by subscriptions. We don't sell your data.
When something gets stuck, we help you move forward. Contact us via chat or email; we usually reply within a few hours on weekdays.
Why the cloud
Where there is internet, your files are with you.
More and more of our lives move from the physical world to the digital one. That can raise concerns. But putting your files safely online also brings calm, and backup, once a dull chore, now takes care of itself.
Security online is not a trouble-free subject, and recent years have added more examples of that. But the advantages outweigh the drawbacks: after a hacking attack or virus, affected files can be restored quickly, and with sync your files are available from all your devices.
The automatic backup and sync happen encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS in transit. Peace of mind for the individual user is the goal.
Security and privacy: what we actually doWhy did Onlime start?
It began with something that was lost.
Onlime was founded by Mathias and Levi in 2012, after they both felt the grief of losing irreplaceable photos and documents. The two friends from upper-secondary school wanted to build something of their own, and no real alternative to the American cloud services in particular existed.
That is how Onlime came to be: a Danish cloud service built on data ethics that helps you back up, sync and share your files.
