Frequently asked questions

Is URL encoding the same as encryption?

No. URL encoding represents characters safely in a URL; it does not hide or protect secret data.

Is it really free?

Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many times you use it.

Are my files or text uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything is processed inside your browser on your own device, so your data never reaches our servers.
