Permanent.org is a place where you can store your family photos and videos, personal documents, business records, or any other digital file permanently.
Our nonprofit mission is a promise to store your digitized photos, videos, music, documents, or anything made of bits and bytes for all time.
Our one-time fee model means you don’t have to pay monthly subscriptions for file storage and your access to your files will never expire.
We can do that because we're a nonprofit backed by an endowment, same as a museum, university, or faith-based organization. Storage fees are donations.
Permanent.org is user friendly for any technical level. It works just like the other file storage applications you’re already familiar with.
A digital archive on Permanent.org is a legacy that you can pass down to future generations using our new Legacy Planning feature; you can now name a legacy contact and archive steward.
You have the option to keep files private or share them with your whole family, community or the world by adding them to the Permanent Public Gallery. Preserving and sharing your legacy allows future generations to learn from you and know your unique story.
◼Tell the story of your files: add titles, descriptions, dates, locations, and tags to your files. Metadata is captured automatically for your files when you upload to save you time.
◼Share with confidence: choose what files and folders you want to share and what level of access others can have to view, contribute, edit, or curate your content. Generate share links that are easy to copy and paste or share files directly in text messages, emails, or any app.
◼Collaborate with control: add family, friends and teammates to your Permanent Archives as members so they can build archives with you. Control their level of access to view, contribute, edit, or curate your content.
◼Maintain access forever: files are converted to universally standard formats so they are accessible as technology changes. One-time storage fees mean your account and archives will never expire.
Be a digital preservation hero! Don’t wait, start building your archives today. There’s no cost to get started. Your loved ones will thank you for it.
