About Onetime Secret
Secure, ephemeral information sharing
Our Mission
Onetime Secret provides a secure platform for sharing sensitive information. We offer simple, effective tools that prioritize user privacy and data protection.
Notes from the Founder
Hi, I'm Delano, the creator of Onetime Secret. What started in 2012 as a simple, secure way to share sensitive information has grown beyond our wildest expectations. Over a decade later, we're facilitating the secure sharing of millions of secrets monthly, with use cases we never imagined.
The first half of 2024 has been our busiest period yet. We're grateful that people have continued to use and share our product for more than a decade. We're currently working on improvements that we think will make the service even more useful — we'll share more details soon.
True to our roots, our code remains open-source on GitHub. As we navigate the evolving landscape of digital privacy and security, we're committed to transparency and continual improvement.
Thank you for being part of our journey. Here's to another decade of secure, ephemeral sharing.
Happy sharing,
Delano

Frequently Asked Questions
Why would I use this?
When sharing sensitive information via email or chat, multiple copies are often stored in various locations. Onetime Secret provides a more secure alternative. Our links allow for a single viewing, after which the information is permanently deleted. This ensures that sensitive data is accessed only once, reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Think of it like a self-destructing message.
Can I retrieve a secret that has already been shared?
Nope. We display it once and then delete it. After that, it's gone forever.
Why should I trust you?
Since 2012, Onetime Secret has provided a reliable platform for secure information sharing. Our system prioritizes privacy and security, backed by open-source code for transparency and community review. We implement industry-standard security practices and stand behind our service with our professional reputations. Our decade of experience demonstrates our commitment to protecting user privacy and maintaining trust.
