Dear Inception Team,
 I hope this message finds you well. We are currently using an ngrok server to connect to inception service. 
However, we recently experienced a ransomware attack which resulted in the loss of all our data. 

 Could you please advise if it is possible to recover our inception tagging data? Is it impossible because the inception database is in local desktop?

 Thank you for your assistance. Best regards,

Richard Eckart de Castilho

If you are running INCEpTION on your local desktop, then the data is also stored locally on your desktop.
Assuming your desktop has been wiped by the attack, you probably also have lost your INCEpTION data.
INCEpTION by itself does not store or communicate your data to the internet as it is a software you run
on your own hardware at your own risk and not a cloud-based software-as-a-service solution.

It is strongly recommended that you regularly create backups of your INCEpTION data and check that these
backups can also be restored again, e.g.:

- https://inception-project.github.io/releases/33.1/docs/user-guide.html#_export_backup_archive
- https://inception-project.github.io/releases/33.1/docs/admin-guide.html#_system_level_backup

Because of the large amount of manual work that goes into annotating, losing annotated data is
particularly painful. I am very sorry for your loss.
