Files are securely stored, transferred, and deleted with FileKiwi.

When transferring and sharing files, it can be concerning to think about where your files are going.

FileKiwi makes every effort to protect users' privacy.

Files are stored and transmitted with end-to-end encryption.

Encryption begins the moment a user selects a file. (128-bit AES-GCM)

This encryption process happens in your browser, so no one, including FileKiwi, can access your content.

The encrypted file is then transferred and stored on FileKiwi servers. Not only is the content encrypted, but also the file title and preview images.

When the sender shares the file box address with the recipient, the decryption key is included (it's the part after the # in the address).

The recipient uses this key to decrypt and save the files.

This process also takes place in the recipient's browser.

Browsers don't send the part after the # when making server requests. This means even if a network administrator is monitoring the connection, they cannot see the key value.

Only people who know the file box address can access the files.

Files are automatically destroyed.

All files stored on the server are automatically and completely deleted after 90 hours.

However, this deletion period can be extended by purchasing an unlimited web folder.
