Our Mission
Our mission is simple: Preserving memories digitally.
About Us
ScanMemories was established in 2018 with a simple idea born from our own experience — the desire to preserve old, fading photographs before they were lost forever.
Like many families, we had bags of albums filled with precious photographs from the past. Over time, we saw these memories slowly deteriorating. We wanted to find a way to protect them and make them easier to access, share, and enjoy for years to come.
What began as a personal effort to digitise our own fading photographs soon made us realise that many other families faced the same challenge. We saw an opportunity to turn our passion for preserving memories into a meaningful business.
That is how ScanMemories was born.
Today, our purpose is simple: to help people preserve their irreplaceable memories in a safe, accessible digital format. We carefully transform old photographs into digital keepsakes that can be enjoyed and shared across generations.
We believe memories are priceless. While photographs may fade and old media can deteriorate with time, the stories and emotions behind them deserve to live on.
Protecting What Matters
Coming from an IT background, we understand that digitising personal photographs with family memories is not just about converting physical media into digital files. These memories often contain personal and sensitive information, and protecting that information is just as important as preserving it.
Our IT expertise gives us a strong understanding of the importance of handling personal information responsibly. We take privacy and data security seriously and aim to ensure that our customers' memories are handled with the care, confidentiality, and respect they deserve.
We try to achieve it by following simple and effective steps:
Store Photos Securely
We Use reputable cloud storage for keeping important photos rather than keeping photos on phone or computer.
Use Strong, Unique Passwords
Protecting our storage accounts with a strong password that you don't use elsewhere.
Protect our Devices
We use screen locks, device encryption and updated security software on computers, phones and hard drives containing your photos.
Restricted Access
We share restricted access links to your specific folders or files for you to download.
Securely Remove Unwanted Copies
When transferring or editing sensitive photographs, remember that temporary copies may remain on devices or storage media. Delete them securely when they are no longer required.
Keep More Than One Backup
- Google Drive
- Physical hard disk
With our IT expertise and strong understanding of privacy and data security, we are committed to preserving your memories with care, confidentiality, and security.
