# How Mousepad keeps your sites safe

The basics a small business shouldn't have to think about, handled for every site you publish.

## Security practices

- **HTTPS everywhere** Published sites and the studio are only served over HTTPS, so every visit is encrypted.
- **Hosted on AWS, encrypted at rest** Sites, files, and databases run on Amazon Web Services. Stored data and files are encrypted at rest, and backups use their own encryption key.
- **Backups for every published site** Daily backups on Basic sites, hourly on Standard and Enterprise, kept for 7 to 30 days depending on the site type.
- **Accounts with confirmed email** Every account confirms its email address or signs in with Google. Only a workspace owner can change its plan, billing, or domains.
- **Plans paid through Stripe** Your Mousepad plan is paid on Stripe Checkout, so card details never reach Mousepad's servers.
- **Your data stays yours** Going over a limit pauses new writes; it never deletes your data. You can unpublish or delete a site whenever you choose.
