Files are encrypted on your device before upload. We never see your plaintext data — only encrypted blobs.
Access your vault via .onion address. Your IP is never revealed, even to us.
We never store your password — not even a hash we can be compelled to hand over.
We don't log connection metadata. There's nothing to hand over because we never collect it.
File names, sizes, upload times — stripped. Metadata is a surveillance vector. We eliminate it.
Primary storage is offline and air-gapped. Encrypted backups ensure your data survives hardware failure.
No. Files are encrypted before they reach us. We store ciphertext only — without your key, the data is meaningless.
Only you. We have no password recovery because we don't know your password. If you lose it, the account is gone.
Yes. Privacy tools are legal. We comply with all applicable laws. We also report and remove illegal content. Privacy is not impunity.
After approval, you'll receive private access instructions via a secure channel. We don't publish public access endpoints.
Accounts cannot be recovered. This is a feature, not a bug. No recovery mechanism means no recovery vector for an adversary.
We operate under jurisdictions with strong privacy protections. Legal details are in our privacy policy. We believe in transparency about what we do — and privacy about how.
Applications are reviewed manually. Approved users receive private access instructions. Slots are limited.
