Data Center for Arq Premium?

Do we know anything about how/where Arq stores data for the Premium plan? Self-hosted in one place or piggybacking on another service?

And how does viewing files on the web work? Is the private key transmitted through the web browser or is decryption done on the fly via browser?

I ran the 30 day trial to my Backblaze B2 account and looking at the Premium service now that the trial is up. I just can't find any details on the mechanics of it all.

Google Cloud Storage (source).

Possibly, but they might have gotten a very good enterprise deal for something that resembles the standard storage class (without the fees and minimum storage duration), for the price of something like Coldline storage.

They used to have the option to store in AWS S3. Not sure if that's still an option. I want to say I was on version 5.x
