This is an American company - we should be suspicious of their intent with all of this data on their network, as it'll likely end up in the hands of the NSA.

Hey Madaxe. Helium never has to know the contents of a payload. We encrypt it to keep the information secure, but you can further encrypt that payload via your own requirements with very little effort.
