How to upload a file
Anonymous Files lets you upload files anonymously. Just drag and drop a file to the upload box, or you can click the box and select a file to upload. Please read the detailed guide on Medium.
Many file sharing websites track what you do, look at your files and share your data. We value your right to privacy and anonymity and promise never to do this.
We do not allow any harmful software to be uploaded. All files are scanned for viruses.
Strict no logs policy. We will never log your IP or referer and we don't store logs.
We do not limit your download/upload speeds or the amount of bandwidth you use or charge you for full access.
We offer a large 5GB file upload limit which we plan on increasing. Our storage solution is scalable so you can upload as much as you like.
Our servers are located offshore, outside of EU and US jurisdictions. This means we do not collect, monitor or store your personal data, or pass it on to third parties.

Once your file has been uploaded the download page url will be returned and you can easily copy it by clicking the "Copy url" button. This is url you need to share with others.
You can make your file upload temporary by using the expiry feature. The file will be deleted after this amount of time. You can set a variety of expiry values from 1 hour (1h) to 24 hours (24h), 1 day (1d) to 7 days (7d), 1 week (1w) to 4 weeks (4w), 1 month (1m) to 6 months (6m). This feature is useful for private file sharing between friends or using it as a temporary file upload feature.
No, your file will be publicly accessible by the url and search engines will list the file. If you need the file to be more private from search engines then use the no index feature.
Use the no index upload option. This prevents search engines from indexing the file by using a noindex meta tag. The file will not show up in search results. You can still share the file download url easily as it will be publicly accessible.
If you upload an image, pdf, or text file they will be displayed on the download page, if the file is less than 3MB. Read the guide to see examples of how they will be displayed.
Uploaded files will remain for as long as possible. We will delete files that have not been accessed or downloaded in a long time (longer than 6 months).
You cannot delete a file once it has been uploaded. However, you can set an expiry on a file so that it deletes after a certain amount of time. The maximum amount of time the file can be deleted after is 6 months. If you really messed up and need to delete a file you uploaded, if you can prove ownership contact us and we may be able to help.
You can upload anything that is legal and free from viruses. Please be respectful of this service - it was built to respect your privacy and make file sharing cool again.
No harmful file uploads are allowed. We scan all files for anything dangerous to our users and will immediately delete the file and ban the uploader.
Max file upload size is 5GB. There are no other limits for reasonable usage.
There are none. We do not make you wait to download. We do not limit your speed. We do not limit the bandwidth you use. (Most file sharing sites do some or all of these and try to make you pay for access). Just be reasonable.
If you feel a file upload is against our terms of service please report the file. On the download page click the Report link and select the reason.
