Enterprise-grade security
Our infrastructure is built with security from the studs up. We store your files with top-tier encryption in multiple data centers with ‘six nines’ (99.9999%) availability. This means that our system is fully operational 99.9999% of the time, with an average of less than 6 minutes of downtime per year. Your files are bulletproof and safe with Boombox.
Backed by forerunner & super{set}
Our lead investors were early backers of creator brands like Anchor.fm and Frame.io. They share our commitment to creators and the ethical handling of their data.
We stand against unlicensed training of AI
Our leadership team has signed the “Statement on AI Training” to stand against the unauthorized use of creative works to train generative AI. We believe this practice harms creators and undermines their rights, and we are committed to ensuring it’s not allowed.
Common questions on Boombox’s
privacy & security
Who can access my music on Boombox?
You and only the people you choose to share your music with. That’s it. We will not share, access, or make your music available to anybody, including ourselves, without your express permission.
Does Boombox monetize my music or data?
No.
Is my music at risk of leaking on Boombox?
Our cloud storage infrastructure is built with fireproof, enterprise-grade security and encryption. While we can’t control whether foreign adversaries tap fiber optic lines under the ocean, the odds of your content getting leaked or hacked on Boombox are vanishingly small. Our advice to you is to be careful about the content you share through other, potentially less secure platforms (iMessage, Whatsapp), but we can’t control what you do with your content outside Boombox. Please be careful how you share and with whom!
Does Boombox retain any rights to my music?
Your intellectual property is yours alone. We’re here to give you an easier way to store, share, and collaborate with others. We lay no proprietary claim to any of the files stored in our system, let alone the music you’ve worked so hard to create.
Will you support our mission?
Founded by former musicians turned tech pros, our team understands the importance of ownership over your art. We all have stories about sending stems for a session only to be cut out of a split before release, or clients running away with an mp3 and not paying for the mastered WAV file – an the list goes on. We’re building a system that simplifies the music production process, while safeguarding against scenarios like these.
Big tech companies have ignored our needs as music makers for too long. It’s our ambition to build something game-changing for this industry, while honoring your privacy and creativity always.
This is our mission. We hope you’ll join us in helping make it a reality.
