What does HTML5 have to do with Cloud Backup? Does it use localStorage or something? ;)

I'd like an explanation of the service that doesn't require signing up.

No privacy policy or terms of use, and you expect me to send you my data?

We use HTML5 drag and drop so that you don't need to install any software to upload your data.
