Privacy promise

Your Files. Your Link. Your Choice.

Send a client deliverable or project archive without publishing it in a public file directory. Keep your own original: file transfers are temporary, while account storage follows your plan.

  • Uploads and downloads use HTTPS (TLS)
  • Files are not listed in a searchable public directory
  • A private link is required; a configured password adds another check
  • Guest links expire after 24 hours; account storage follows the plan
  • One file transfers without signup; a free account for repeat sends
  • Read our security guidance before sending sensitive material

What we don't do

  • List private uploads publicly
  • Require recipients to sign up
  • Treat guest transfers as permanent storage
  • Require a paid plan for temporary sharing
  • Sell upload metadata for marketing

More than a transfer link

Keep your trusted sharing workflow in one place

Create a free account when you want a personal workspace for saved recipients, conversations and permanent files. Guest sharing remains private and simple.

Saved contacts

Add the people you share with most and stop retyping recipient details every time.

Messages with context

Keep file conversations and notifications beside your shared files for a more professional workflow.

Files and folders

Organize permanent uploads in folders, review file history and manage temporary links from one dashboard.

How to Send Large Files Online

Your first guest send needs no signup. Later sends use a free account, not a required paid subscription. Keep a local copy until your recipient confirms the download.

Full guide: how to send large files

Step 1

Choose the Original Files

Select the files and check the current limits. Add a password when available. Keep the tab open until the upload completes.

Step 2

Share the Download Link

Copy the completed link into an email or message. Send any password separately, and tell the recipient when the link expires.

Step 3

Download Before Expiry

Guest links expire after 24 hours. Ask the recipient to save a local copy and check it. Use plan-limited account storage when temporary access is not enough.

Large File Sharing Without Email Attachments

A project ZIP, an original video and a sensitive PDF need different checks. Use the workflow that matches the file, then confirm your recipient can download it.

01

Send Original Video Files

Share the file itself rather than a compressed chat preview. Keep the original export and compare a checksum after download when exact quality matters.

02

Send Large Files Through Gmail

An email can carry a download link instead of an oversized attachment. Check access permissions and give the recipient a clear expiry time.

03

Protect a Download Link

Where enabled, choose a download password before sharing. Send it separately from the link. Password access is not the same as end-to-end file encryption.

04

Choose Temporary or Account Storage

A guest link expires after 24 hours. A free account supports repeat temporary sends; permanent files use your current storage allowance. Check the plan before promising long-term access.

05

Check Large Transfers Before a Deadline

Upload speed is not download speed. Allow time for the entire handoff, keep the upload tab open and verify the recipient has enough free disk space.

06

Prepare Files With Online Tools

Convert an archive, extract audio or work on a PDF before sending it. Check output quality and save the result locally; a processing link is not a backup.
