Terms & Conditions

LAST UPDATED: MARCH 2026

By using ZeroKey, you agree to the following terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use the service.

1. Use of Service

ZeroKey is provided as a free, experimental tool for secure, ephemeral communication. You agree to use this service strictly for legal purposes. You may not use ZeroKey to transmit illegal content, malware, illicit materials, or any data that violates the rights, privacy, or safety of others. We reserve the right to restrict access to the platform if abuse is detected.

2. Disclaimer of Warranties

ZeroKey is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis.

  • While we utilize enterprise-grade cryptography (AES-GCM) and strictly adhere to zero-knowledge protocols, web browsers and operating systems can have inherent, unpatched vulnerabilities.
  • We make no warranties, express or implied, regarding the absolute security of the platform against highly sophisticated endpoint attacks (e.g., malware, keyloggers, or screen-recording software installed on your specific device).

3. Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances shall the creators, developers, or maintainers of ZeroKey be held liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages resulting from the use or inability to use the service. This includes, but is not limited to, damages for data loss, intercepted data due to compromised client devices, or the premature deletion of unread payloads due to automated link scanners.

4. User Responsibility

You are solely responsible for securely transmitting the generated link to your intended recipient. The URL fragment (the portion after the #) acts as the decryption key. If a third party gains access to the complete URL, they will possess both the encrypted data and the means to decrypt it. It is your responsibility to utilize secure channels to share these links.
