+			<strong>User Information</strong>
+
+			<p>
+				We store this information about you as the user to provide our
+				services, this includes:
+			</p>
+
+			<ul class="flex list-outside list-disc flex-col gap-2 pl-8">
+				<li>Username</li>

+			</ul>
+
+			<p>
+				We store this information to display on the user account page,
+				there is no other reason to keep this information other than
+				that page.

+
+			<strong>User Data</strong>
+
+			<p>
+				We store user data, this is the primary function of the
+				application, the exact user data we store is listed below:

+
+			<ul class="flex list-outside list-disc flex-col gap-2 pl-8">
+				<li>Public Keys</li>
+				<li>Cryptographically Wrapped File Encryption Keys</li>
+				<li>Encrypted Files as uploaded by the user</li>
+			</ul>
+
+			<p>
+				Public keys are uploaded in order to enable future sharing
+				functionality, allowing another user to share a file with you.
+				The associated <em>private keys</em>
+				are not uploaded, ever, meaning we are unable to decrypt your files.
