A screen recorder built with GDPR in mind

Recordings stay in your own cloud — you remain in control of personal data, with fewer third parties in the way.

Screenvod is a screen recorder that helps keep you in control of your data — a critical point for GDPR. Instead of storing videos in yet another company's cloud, every recording goes straight to your own cloud (Google Drive, OneDrive, or Dropbox), which you already manage and where you already have your own privacy policies.

In practice, that means one fewer processor holding personal data. A recording can contain faces, screens with sensitive information, or voices — data that, under GDPR, calls for care over where it lives and who accesses it. Keeping it in your own cloud makes control, data residency, and meeting your obligations easier.

One fewer processor

Videos don't go to a third-party cloud: they stay in the cloud you already contracted and govern.

Data residency

Files live in the storage and region you chose (Google, Microsoft, Dropbox), not on an opaque server.

Access control

Protect videos with a password and keep recordings private (on Starter). You decide who watches.

Data in your own cloud

Every recording stays in your Google Drive, OneDrive, or Dropbox account. No copy on our servers.

Data minimization

Fewer places holding personal information means less risk surface and less to audit.

In English, Portuguese, and Spanish

The interface ships in all three languages, useful for European and global teams handling personal data.

Why where the video lives matters for GDPR

A screen recording usually carries personal data: faces on the webcam, names in a spreadsheet, an open email, a voice. Under GDPR, that requires knowing where the data lives, for how long, and who has access.

When the video is hosted by the tool itself, you gain one more data processor to map, with its own DPA, international transfers, and retention periods. That's more complexity and less control.

Your cloud, your rules

Screenvod sends the recording straight to your own cloud. The file lives in your Google Drive, OneDrive, or Dropbox account — providers you most likely already have a data processing agreement and residency controls with.

We handle the link and streaming, but don't keep copies of your videos. That shortens the chain of sub-processors and keeps personal data under your governance, the way GDPR values.

Privacy on the free plan, control on Starter

Even on the free plan, recordings go to your own cloud, with unlimited time and up to 3 private videos. You start with the data under your control, at no cost.

Starter adds password protection, unlimited private videos, 1080p+, and view insights, for $7/month — useful when you need finer access control over sensitive recordings.
