Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 29, 2026

1. What We Collect

Vanisec is built with minimal data collection in mind. Here's what we do and don't collect:

  • Secrets: Stored temporarily in Redis until viewed or expired, then permanently deleted
  • No personal data: No accounts required, so we collect no names, emails, or identifying information
  • No tracking cookies: We don't use tracking cookies or collect behavioral analytics

2. How We Use Your Data

Secrets are stored in Redis only long enough to serve them once to the recipient. They are deleted immediately after being viewed or when the TTL expires. We never write secret content to application logs, databases, or any form of persistent storage.

3. Security Measures

We take the following measures to protect your data:

  • Secrets are encrypted before being stored
  • Each secret can only be viewed once before being deleted
  • Automatic expiration ensures secrets don't persist indefinitely
  • No sensitive content is written to logs or monitoring systems

4. Data Retention

Secrets are stored for a maximum of 7 days, or until they are viewed — whichever comes first. Once deleted, they are permanently unrecoverable. We do not keep backups of secret content.

5. Third-Party Services

Vanisec uses Redis for temporary secret storage. Secret content is not shared with any third parties. If Google Analytics is configured via the NEXT_PUBLIC_GA_ID environment variable, standard anonymous usage data (page views, referrers) may be collected by Google Analytics.

6. Your Rights

Because we collect no personal data and secrets self-destruct, there's very little to manage:

  • No account means no personal profile to request or delete
  • Secrets are automatically deleted after use or expiration
  • You can stop using the service at any time — no data lingers

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted here with an updated date. Continued use of Vanisec after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
