How ShareSecret Works

We use AES-256 encryption, the gold standard in cryptographic security, to scramble your secrets.This military-grade encryption ensures that your data remains unreadable to anyone without the decryption key.Even in the unlikely event of a data breach, your secrets would remain secure.

Every secret gets a unique, randomly generated access link.This link is the key to viewing the secret and is designed to be virtually impossible to guess.We recommend sharing this link through a separate, secure channel from the one you used to share the secret itself.

Secrets set for one-time viewing are deleted immediately after being accessed.This feature ensures that sensitive information is only seen once and cannot be retrieved again, even by the original recipient.It's perfect for sharing temporary passwords or other highly sensitive data.

We never log or track the content of your secrets.Our servers are designed with a 'zero-knowledge' architecture, meaning we have no way to access or read your encrypted data.Once a secret is deleted, it's gone forever, with no backups or copies retained.

You can set your secret to expire within 12 hours to ensure minimal exposure.This feature is crucial for time-sensitive information.Once the expiry time is reached, the secret is automatically and permanently deleted from our servers, regardless of whether it was viewed.

We take data deletion seriously. If a secret is expired or viewed (in one-time mode), it's permanently deleted from our servers.This deletion process is irreversible and includes all associated metadata.We use secure deletion methods to ensure that the data cannot be recovered, even with advanced forensic tools.
