# Sovereign, Secure & Private

The distributed nature of the Tier-S and Tier-H model ensures data remains under local jurisdiction, addressing data sovereignty concerns.

### Key Features:
- **Local Data Storage**: Sensitive data is stored and processed locally, not on overseas servers, giving users greater control over their information.
- **Quantum-Safe Storage**: The ThreeFold Grid's quantum-safe storage spreads data pieces across multiple pods and sites, so no single location contains all the information.
- **Full Ownership**: This guarantees that individuals and institutions retain full ownership and control of their private data.
