Details

On Sunday June 16 at 15:00 UTC, we will be updating the encryption used in our databases. This requires us to take them offline for approximately 1 hour, during which time Power Diary will not be accessible. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Updates will be posted on this page during the procedure.

This update is part of the regular security improvements that we make. Most of the time we do these quietly behind the scenes, but this one requires us to shut down the system.
