1. Information Collection and Usage

Personal Information

We do not collect any personal information from our users, such as names, email addresses, or contact information, unless you choose to create an account. If you create an account, your email address will be collected.

Encrypted Data

The content uploaded by users is using a visibility option that supports encryption then text, files, videos, audio, and images in that paste, are encrypted client-side for enhanced privacy. We do not have access to the encryption keys or the decrypted content, ensuring that your data remains secure and private.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to keep you logged, to store anonymous user ids for content created and to maintain user interactions such as likes and dislikes. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings.

Third-Party Services

AnonPaste may use third-party services, such as Google AdSense, Google Analytics, and CloudFlare captcha, to enhance your experience, improve and protect our services. These third-party services may collect certain non-personal information, such as your device's IP address and browsing behavior, to provide relevant ads and analytical insights. Please refer to the respective privacy policies of these services for more information.

2. Data Storage and Retention

Personal Data Storage

We do not store any personally identifiable information on our servers unless you create an account. If you choose to create an account, your email address will be securely stored.

Expiration Date

Users have the option to choose an expiration date for their content. When the expiration date is reached, the data is automatically deleted. By default, all data is deleted after 30 days of creation.

Never Expire Option

Users can also choose the "Never Expire" option, in which case the data will not be automatically deleted based on a predefined expiration date.

Manual Deletion

Users can manually delete their pastes/data using the token provided to them upon creation or by clicking on 'My Account' if they have an account.

3. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. These measures include encryption, firewalls, and regular security audits.

However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

4. Data Sharing

Public Sharing

The purpose of our website is to provide a platform for users to share their content with others. By uploading content, users acknowledge that the shared data will be accessible to anyone with the link and password.

User Responsibility

Users are solely responsible for the content they upload and share on the platform. We do not moderate or review user-submitted content. Users should ensure that they have the necessary rights and permissions to share the content and should refrain from sharing sensitive or confidential information.

5. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at [email protected], and we will take steps to remove the information from our systems.

6. Rights and Choices

If you have created an account with us, you have the right to access, rectify, or delete your personal information. To exercise these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

7. Data Breach Notification

In the event of a data breach involving your personal information, we will notify you as required by applicable laws and regulations.

8. Compliance with Laws and Regulations

We are committed to complying with all applicable laws and regulations related to data protection and privacy, including but not limited to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

9. Changes to the Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices and services. We will post any updates on this page and indicate the "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of AnonPaste after the modifications signify your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.

10. Payments and Billing Information

Payment Processors

We use third-party payment processors (e.g., Stripe) to handle subscription and payment transactions. We do not store full credit card numbers or sensitive payment details. The payment processor may collect and process your billing information in accordance with its own privacy policy.

Billing Metadata

We may store limited billing metadata, such as your subscription status, product tier, and billing portal session identifiers, to manage your subscription and provide access to paid features.

11. Discord Bot and Integrations

Identifiers and Command Data

When you use our Discord bot, we may process limited Discord-related identifiers (e.g., user ID, server ID, channel ID) and command parameters necessary to fulfill the requested action, enforce rate limits, combat abuse, and improve reliability. We do not collect message content beyond command inputs required to operate the bot.

Retention

Identifiers and command metadata related to the bot are retained only as long as necessary for security, abuse prevention and to provide the service, after which they are deleted or anonymized.

12. Data Retention and Deletion

Account and Content Deletion

You can delete your account from your settings. Deletion removes your profile and private content. Public/community-owned items may be anonymized rather than deleted to preserve community integrity. Full deletion may take up to 30 days to complete across backups and logs.

Pastes and Files

Pastes follow the expiration and deletion options you choose (including Never Expire). When you delete a paste, we remove it from active systems; residual copies may persist briefly in backups, which are periodically purged.

Thank you for using AnonPaste, and we hope you enjoy our services.
