Questions, answered.
Everything people ask before they trust PCV Vault with their most important documents.
How secure is PCV Vault?
+
Every document is encrypted in transit and at rest, your vault is isolated at the data layer, sign-in takes two factors, and every security-relevant event — logins, shares, deletions — is logged. Read the full breakdown on our Security page.
Who is PCV Vault for?
+
Anyone whose paperwork spans borders: migrants, international students, cross-border professionals, frequent travellers — and anyone tired of deadline surprises. If your documents were issued in more than one country, no single government wallet serves you. We do.
Which countries does it work in?
+
All of them. PCV Vault is country-agnostic by design: documents from any issuer, dates handled in your locale, reachable from any browser.
Does PCV Vault verify documents?
+
Not yet, and we're careful to say so. Today we do custody: safe storage, understanding, reminders, and controlled sharing. Verification with issuers — confirming a document is genuine with the university or authority that issued it — is Phase 3 of our roadmap. What we never do is pretend: no false 'verified' badges.
Can someone view my document without a PCV account?
+
Yes — that's SecureShare. You send a time-limited link plus a separate one-time code; they view the document without signing up; you see exactly when it was opened, and you can revoke the link at any moment.
What does it cost?
+
PCV Vault is free during early access. At launch it becomes a simple monthly subscription — priced like a coffee, and announced clearly before you ever pay.
What documents can I store?
+
Passports, national IDs, visas and residence permits, degrees and transcripts, professional licences and certifications, employment references, financial and medical documents — anything that proves who you are or carries a date you can't afford to miss.
What happens when I delete a document?
+
Deleting is soft first — recoverable, because midnight mistakes happen. Hard delete is a separate, deliberately confirmed action, and it genuinely erases the document from storage.
Where is my data held, and what about GDPR?
+
PCV Vault is built by a UK-registered company operating to UK GDPR standards: minimal collection, export on request, genuine erasure. We'll publish our hosting regions plainly before launch — where your documents physically live matters, and you deserve to know.
When does it launch?
+
We're building now and opening access in stages. Join the waitlist and you'll hear the moment your vault is ready.
Ask us anything — we answer in plain language.
Everything that proves who you are — in one pocket, always valid.
