Here's a litmus test: If a user loses their credentials, is their data unrecoverable?

Currently, the server maintains the backup key to recover data in case of lost/forgotten credentials. In the PRO version, users will be able to choose not to store this backup key on our server and will be responsible for maintaining it on their own; in this case data would not be recoverable without this backup key.

Thanks,
