Frequently asked questions

Can the server read the PDF?

The browser encrypts the PDF before upload. The server receives a random identifier and ciphertext, but is not intentionally sent the PDF plaintext or fragment-held decryption key.

Is deletion instantaneous at exactly 15 minutes?

Access expires at the configured time. Scheduled cleanup runs every five minutes to remove expired ciphertext and record deletion evidence.
