**What is AnonPaste?**

AnonPaste is a secure pastebin service, launched publicly in May 2011. AnonPaste was originally based on a privately used project, circa 2005 before realisations that such a service was inexistent for the general public. AnonPaste was rewritten just prior to launch before another major update in January 2015.

**How does it work?**

Submitted plain text is first encrypted into cipher text using AES with a 256-bit key. This key is derived from a password that you may either specify or have generated. The encrypted cipher text is then sent securely to AnonPaste and assigned a unique identifier, forming part of the link used to access the paste.

From that link the encrypted cipher text is sent securely back from AnonPaste and after entering the password, decrypted into the original plain text. This allows you to share the link over an unsecure connection without anyone being able to read your content unless provided with the password by you.

**How secure is my content?**

Your plain text and password are never transmitted, all cryptographic functionality takes place client-side in your browser prior to submission. Only your encrypted plain text or cipher text is transmitted between you and AnonPaste.

**What information is kept?**

AnonPaste keeps your encrypted cipher text, your specified expiration time, the time submitted and the unique identifier assigned to your paste. Your user agent string or IP address is never kept with your paste.
