Data privacy and Google Analytics
With the GDPR enforcement date of 25th May approaching, we’ve decided to make our privacy and data handling process as public and open as possible.

Introducing data governance and lockdown configuration options
draw.io is a unique security-first diagramming tool in that we provide the application platform, but your diagram data only lives in your computer memory while you are working on it. As you can store your diagrams on your preferred enterprise-level cloud storage platforms or on your local device, draw.io gives you control over your diagram data.
Run your own draw.io server with Docker
Run your own diagramming server using our Docker image of draw.io. This image includes server-side support for export to PDF, image and .vsdx formats, diagram storage with Google Drive and OneDrive, without any dependency on the draw.io servers.
Store diagram files on cloud platforms
When you use draw.io, either online or any of our integrations, you choose where to store your diagram files. Create unlimited diagrams and store them on your favourite cloud platform. draw.io doesn't store your diagram data, so you don't need an account to open and edit your files.

Use draw.io desktop to diagram offline
draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn't need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance.
Your diagram data is secure and private
draw.io is a unique security-first diagramming tool in that we provide the application platform, but your diagram data only lives in your browser on your local device while you are working on it. Upon saving, your diagram data will be stored at the location you have chosen: in your cloud platform, on your local device, in GitHub, or to whichever integration you have selected. Your diagram data is never sent to our servers when you save your diagram.
