PrivacySafe Locker – Private Files & Memos

PrivacySafe Locker is a privacy-first, temporary storage solution for securely sharing encrypted files and memos. PrivacySafe Locker ensures that all encryption happens on your device, making it zero-knowledge — the server cannot read or access the content.

Features

  • Self-Destructing Files & Memos: Files automatically expire after a period of time (24 hours by default) or can be manually removed earlier.
  • End-to-End Encryption: All data is encrypted on your device before uploading, ensuring only the intended recipient can access it.
  • Bypass Email Attachment Limits: Share files (up to 25MB by default) without relying on email attachments or long-term cloud storage.

How It Works

  1. Upload a File or Memo: Drag & drop a file or type a memo.
  2. Create a Private Address: Your encrypted content creates a unique locker address URL.
  3. Share Securely: Send the URL through an encrypted chat or other secure channels.
  4. Auto-Deletion: The file vanishes after a set period of time, leaving no trace.

Free Public Server

  • Files are deleted every 24 hours and the file size limit is 25MB.

Installation & Self-Hosting

PrivacySafe Locker can be self-hosted. To install and run the server with default settings:

apt install nodejs
git clone https://github.com/PrivacySafe/privacysafe-locker/
cd privacysafe-locker
cp server/server.conf.example server/server.conf
cp client/config.js.example client/config.js
cd server
npm install
node server.js

For detailed server configuration, see server.conf.example.

External Tools=

  • Command-Line Uploading: PrivacySafe Locker is the successor to Up1 so you can use upclient to upload files programmatically.
  • Desktop GUI Uploading: The ShareX graphical application can send files to PrivacySafe Locker.
