MEGA has a C rating in tosdr.org. I still use it, but should I change services for a better privacy? I will soon have to pay for more space, and am afraid of what will happen to my bank data.

If file content is not sensitive I guess any cloud storage is fine for privacy using the usual VPN + secure browser + disposable email + encrypted files. They will collect data, but will be just junk.
