Storage and CDN are connected together
Bringing your own is one setting: you connect your own storage and your own CDN together, and one can't be turned on without the other. Tencent Cloud CDN isn't supported yet, so today you pair Tencent Cloud COS with Cloudflare or Amazon CloudFront.
With your own storage and CDN, the files live in your own accounts, outside smallPict. You're responsible for those copies; smallPict doesn't keep a backup of them and isn't involved with the CDN's performance.
CDNs you can pair it with today
Not ready to run your own? “Managed by smallPict” is the default on Velocity and Momentum: we store and deliver the files for you. WordPress plans always use the managed smallPict CDN.

Tencent Cloud CDN support is planned
Using Tencent Cloud CDN as your own CDN doesn't work yet. Tell us about your setup and we'll email you when it's ready; requests help us decide what to build first.
Questions
Which plans can use it?
Velocity and Momentum, the API plans. WordPress plans, including Business, use the managed smallPict CDN and can't connect their own storage.
Can I connect only my storage and keep the smallPict CDN?
No. Your own storage and your own CDN are switched on together. If you'd rather not run a CDN, keep “Managed by smallPict”.
Do the keys need admin rights?
No. They only need to read and write objects in the bucket you connect, and you can revoke or rotate them at any time in your storage account.
Does smallPict keep a copy of my files?
No. Images are processed in temporary, encrypted processing storage, and the optimized files are written to your bucket. smallPict doesn't keep a backup of the files in your account.
