Trust

Your data, hosted in France and retrievable.

What we put in place to protect the websites and the data you entrust to us, who processes them and where, and what we commit never to do.

Updated on 15 October 2026.

What we put in place

Six measures, for every site and every plan.

  1. Hosting in France

    The websites and accounts are hosted with OVHcloud, in France, under European law; Arko’s management area will be too. Backup copies, encrypted before they leave, are stored with Backblaze, in its European region (the Netherlands).

  2. Encryption in transit

    Every connection uses HTTPS, with TLS 1.2 or later; certificates are renewed automatically as soon as a domain is connected.

  3. Passwords and sessions

    Passwords stored in hashed form by our identity provider, app-based two-factor authentication offered on password-based accounts (an account opened with Google relies on Google’s 2-Step Verification), sessions protected by secure cookies, an origin check on every form, and a limited number of sign-in and sign-up attempts.

  4. Permissions checked on the server

    Each member of an organisation has a role — owner, administrator, editor or viewer. Permissions are checked on every request, never just on screen, and the database itself keeps each organisation’s data apart.

  5. Backups and history

    The platform’s databases are backed up continuously and every night, encrypted, with a copy kept off our servers; a full restore is rehearsed every month. Arko keeps a history of your publications and lets you roll back to an earlier version.

  6. Export at any time

    Content, catalogue and activity data can be retrieved in documented formats, during and after your subscription.
