Are the attached files in goalscape saved locally or on a goalscape server?

I see that you can save files or attach files in goals on Goalscape. Where do those files end up living? Locally or server?

    Hello Jason

    In Goalscape Online all the software and data (including Attachments) are on our secure servers. This means that your goal attachments are available when you sign in to Online on any machine anywhere in the world – they are also available to anyone with whom you Share your projects.

    Note though that any files uploaded as Attachments are only 'snapshots' of the local file at the time it is uploaded. If you want to add updateable files to your goals, the best way to do this is to upload the file from your local machine to a third-party filesharing facility (like Google Drive), give all your project collaborators Edit access to that file, then include a hyperlink to that online document in the Notes (or Comments) on the relevant goal.

    Enjoy the journey!
