How to Send Temporary Files with Expiring Links

Need to share a file that automatically deletes? Here's the complete solution for 2026. Fast, secure, and entirely anonymous.

The Problem: Zombie Files

You want to send a file to someone, but you don't want it sitting on a server forever. Maybe it's sensitive. Maybe you just want it gone after 24 hours. Traditional file sharing services keep your files indefinitely, creating "zombie data" that lingers in the cloud, wasting storage and creating security risks.

The Solution: TempFileLink

Our platform is built like Snapchat for files. Upload your file, get a link, share it. Before 24 hours, it's gone. No tracking, just speed.

1. Upload

Direct to R2

2. Share

Instant link

3. Poof!

Auto-deletion

Why Security Matters

Sharing your files with TempFileLink is inherently more secure than email or chat. Since files are automatically deleted once they are downloaded or expired, there is no forgotten data hanging around. We use HTTPS/TLS for all transfers and AES-256at-rest encryption.
