Hola Everyone! I am a graduate student assisting a professor (prof). I purchased MAXQDA for my own use, but I was thinking of using it for coding of prof research. Before I use it on prof research, I have some questions regarding where the data resides. I think it resides on the local laptop in the documents folder, but I wanted to verify. Here are my questions:
1) Where is data stored and processed? (for example, locally, cloud...)
2) When my subscription expires, does MAXQDA own any of my data?
3) If there is a breach at MAXQDA, what data is in jeopardy?
4) How does MAXQDA protect against breaches?

Dear Margarita,
Great to hear that you are starting working with MAXQDA.
When you use the stand-alone version of MAXQDA all your data is stored on your computer. MAXQDA (VERBI GmbH) has no access to any of your data. Of course, you are the exclusive owner of your data.
All project information (documents, codings, memos, etc) are stored in the MAXQDA project file, which ends with .mx24. This project file remains on your computer as long as you wish. You may open this file either with the free MAXQDA reader or with a new valid licence.
This also means, that you are responsible for backing up your data, so that you don't lose it in case of a broken computer or similar.
You find in our terms and conditions for the cloud modules AI Assist, Transcription and TeamCloud the technical and organisational measures to prevent breaches.
I hope this information help you.
Best regards,
Your MAXQDA Team
