Protect your legacy and backup your data.
What is a Backup?
A backup is a copy of all your important files — for example, your family photos, home videos, documents and emails. Instead of storing it all in one place (like your computer or smartphone), you keep a copy of everything somewhere safe.
Why Should I Backup?
Losing your files is way more common than you’d think.One small accident or failure could destroy all the important stuff you care about.
