FAQ

• What is this?

  encrypting.host is a uploading website focused on privacy. All uploaded files are being encrypted using AES-256-CBC automatically.

• I want to take a file of your site, where to contact?

  As encrypting.host is operating under german laws, please send me a valid takedown request. Childporn etc. will be pulled offline, no questions asked.

• Is encrypting.host an ip logger?

  In short: No. To extend that: encrypting.host is not logging IPs, geolocations or any other unnecessary information. We only log which user updated which file, without the key. Sadly, you have to trust me with this.

• How to set encrypting.host up with ShareX?

  Copy the following content to your clipboard:

  {
  "Version": "12.4.1",
  "DestinationType": "ImageUploader, TextUploader, FileUploader",
  "RequestMethod": "POST",
  "RequestURL": "https://encrypting.host/upload",
  "Body": "MultipartFormData",
  "Arguments": {
  "password": "%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra%ra",
  "userKey": "your-user-key",
  "urlStyle": "query",
  "domains": "[\"womenare.properties\", \"sexin.church\", \"nuke.bayern\"]"
  },
  "FileFormName": "file"
  }

  Go into ShareX > Destinations > Custom Uploader Settings, then click Import > From Clipboard.

  On the left side replace your-user-key you got and change the domains to your preferred ones found at https://encrypting.host/#domains.

  You can also select domains by category, rather than the domain itself:
  For all domains use [""].
  For normal, non-offensive and non-depressed domains use ["normal"].
  For offensive domains use ["offensive"].
  For depressive domains use ["sad"].
  You can also combine these tags.

  Now select encrypting.host as your image, text and file uploader, then select Custom Uploader at ShareX > Destinations for image, text and file uploader.
