Privacy & security
Private by design
We keep as little as possible and delete it fast. Here is exactly what happens to your data on FilesShare.
What we collect
Files & text
Stored only during transfer, then deleted automatically after 10 days.
Technical data
Connection logs and IPs for security and rate limiting only. Never linked to your files.
Analytics
Anonymous usage statistics to help us improve the service.
Security measures
HTTPS encryption
Every connection is encrypted with HTTPS/TLS in transit.
Secure storage
Files are stored with AES-256 server-side encryption.
Random access keys
Each file gets a unique 6-digit key. Only the key unlocks it.
Rate limiting
Per-IP upload and download limits protect against abuse.
Private text channel
Clipboard text rides real-time sockets and is never stored.
Automatic deletion
10-day expiry
Every uploaded file is deleted after 10 days. No exceptions.
Text is never stored
Clipboard messages exist only inside active connections.
No recovery
Once deleted, files are gone. We keep no backups.
What we never do
Read or scan your files
Share data with third parties
Require registration or accounts
Store personal information
Keep files beyond 10 days
Track individual users
Sell your data
Third parties & your rights
Google Analytics
Anonymous usage statistics only. See Google's Privacy Policy.
Because we collect no personal information and files self-delete after 10 days, there is no data retention to manage. You stay in full control simply by choosing what to upload.
