Privacy Policy

Effective: April 2026 · Version 2.0 · GDPR Compliant

🔑
Our Core Commitment
Convis Transfer is designed so that we are technically incapable of reading your files. Encryption keys exist only in your browser and in the URL you share. They never touch our servers. This is not a policy promise — it is a mathematical fact.
01

Zero-Knowledge Architecture

Every file you upload is encrypted using AES-256-GCM directly in your browser before it leaves your device. The encryption key is generated locally and embedded only in the URL fragment (the part after the # symbol), which browsers do not send to servers.

ENCRYPTION: AES-256-GCM (Client-Side Only)
KEY LOCATION: URL Fragment — Never Transmitted
SERVER ACCESS: Impossible by Design

This means our servers store only an encrypted binary blob. Without the key in the URL fragment, it is mathematically indecipherable — by us, by regulators, by anyone.

02

What We Do Not Collect

We do not collect your name, email address, or any personal identifier unless you voluntarily provide one. Your username is stored only in your own browser's localStorage — we never receive it unless you include it in a support message.

We do not use tracking cookies, advertising pixels, or behavioural analytics. We do not build user profiles. We do not sell data to third parties. We do not use Google Analytics or any third-party tracking scripts.

03

What We Do Store

When you upload a file, our AWS S3 infrastructure stores the encrypted binary only. We log the event timestamp and the file reference key for audit purposes. We do not log file names, file contents, or your IP address.

If you purchase credits via Stripe, Stripe processes and stores your payment information. We receive only a payment confirmation linked to your chosen username. We never see your card number or banking credentials.

04

Automatic Deletion

Privacy is enforced through destruction. Every encrypted file is permanently and automatically deleted from our infrastructure after your chosen expiry window — 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days.

We do not maintain shadow copies, backups, or archives of transferred files. Once deleted, the data cannot be recovered by anyone — including us.

05

Cookies

We use essential cookies only to operate the service (session management). If you consent, we use functional cookies to remember your preferences. We use no advertising cookies by default.

You are asked to confirm your cookie preferences on your first visit. You can change these at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this site.

06

GDPR & Your Rights

We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK ICO framework. Because we do not collect personal data, most GDPR rights (access, erasure, portability) are satisfied by design — there is no personal data to provide, erase, or export.

Partner Platforms

Convis Transfer integrates optionally with eXstnZ (permanent sovereign storage at exstnz.com) and displays advertising for Ethicoin (ethicoin.org). These are separate services with their own privacy policies. No data is shared between platforms without your explicit action.
