- If you prefer not to upload files to the server, you can download them to your computer and decrypt them using our website in your browser.
Functionality

- TTL (Time-to-Live) & Reads
- The server only receives encrypted files and text and never has access to your password.
- The app utilizes a service worker to perform encryption and decryption tasks, offloading them from the main thread.
Regionally Placed Bucket
- Regional Placed Buckets: Optimized for Speed and Privacy
- Our service automatically detects your location and spawns a bucket in your region for faster downloads and enhanced privacy. Unlike globally distributed storage, your files remain within your jurisdiction, ensuring greater control over your data's location and access.
- Every user request from different regions triggers the creation of a bucket in their respective region. This means that files are always stored locally, providing regional storage for each user and simplifying data management.
FAQ
