1. Introduction

Vastbin is a privacy-focused pastebin alternative that prioritizes your anonymity and data security. Unlike traditional pastebin services, we implement military-grade encryption for all stored data, ensuring that your information remains completely private and secure.

2. Data Collection & Storage

We operate on a minimal data collection principle. When you create a paste, we only store the information you explicitly provide: title, author name, content, type (public/private), password (for private pastes), and delete code. No personal information, IP addresses, or tracking data is collected or stored.

3. Encryption & Security

All data stored on Vastbin is encrypted using military-grade encryption standards. This includes:

• • Title and Author: Encrypted at rest
• • Content: End-to-end encrypted
• • Passwords: Hashed using secure algorithms
• • Delete Codes: Encrypted for secure storage

Even our administrators cannot access the content of your pastes without the appropriate credentials.

4. Anonymity

Vastbin is designed to be completely anonymous. You don't need to create an account, provide an email address, or share any personal information to use our service. We don't track users, store IP addresses, or use any form of analytics that could compromise your privacy.

5. Public vs Private Pastes

You have full control over your paste visibility:

• • Public Pastes: Accessible to anyone with the link
• • Private Pastes: Require a password for access

Regardless of the type, all pastes remain encrypted on our servers.

6. Delete Codes

Each paste is assigned a unique delete code that you provide during creation. This code allows anyone who possesses it to permanently delete the paste. We recommend keeping your delete codes secure, as lost codes cannot be recovered and we cannot assist with paste deletion without them.

7. Data Retention

Pastes remain on our servers until they are manually deleted using the delete code. We do not automatically delete pastes after a certain period, giving you full control over your data's lifecycle.

8. Third-Party Services

Vastbin does not use third-party analytics, advertising services, or tracking technologies that could compromise your privacy. Our service is completely self-contained and independent.

9. Cookies & Local Storage

We do not use cookies or local storage for tracking purposes. Any temporary data stored in your browser is limited to enhancing your user experience during the current session and is cleared when you leave the site.

10. Security Measures

Beyond encryption, we implement additional security measures including:

• • Secure HTTPS connections for all data transmission
• • Regular security audits and updates
• • Protection against common web vulnerabilities
• • Secure server infrastructure

11. Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal information, traditional data rights (like GDPR's right to access or delete personal data) don't apply in the conventional sense. However, you maintain full control over your pastes through the delete codes and can remove your content at any time.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

13. Contact

If you have questions about this privacy policy or our privacy practices, please contact us at hi@pimatis.org. Please note that we cannot respond to inquiries that require personal information, as we don't collect or store such data.

14. Limitation of Liability

While we implement strong security measures, please understand that no internet service can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your delete codes and passwords. We are not liable for unauthorized access resulting from compromised credentials.
