# PrivateBin - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `privatebin.info` ## Description PrivateBin is a minimalist, open source online pastebin that prioritizes the security and privacy of its users. With PrivateBin, the server has zero knowledge of pasted data, as all data is encrypted and decrypted in the browser using 256-bit AES in Galois Counter mode. Originally a fork of ZeroBin, PrivateBin has been refactored to allow for easier and cleaner extensions, while maintaining full compatibility with the original ZeroBin 0.19 data storage scheme. As a server administrator, you can rest easy knowing that you are protected from any liability, as you have plausible deniability of the paste content. You also have the ability to delete any paste from the system if necessary. PrivateBin offers a pastebin-like system for storing text documents, code samples, and more. It encrypts all data sent to the server and allows users to set a password for each paste, adding an extra layer of protection. However, it's important to note that as a user, you must trust the server administrator not to inject any malicious code. To ensure secure usage, PrivateBin must be accessed over HTTPS and the instance should be secured by HSTS. It is recommended to use a strong password if you want to keep your paste private. Additionally, while PrivateBin encrypts the text and discussion contents, access logs could potentially disclose who accessed a paste first. PrivateBin offers various optional features that can be enabled or disabled in the configuration file, such as password protection, discussions with nicknames or IP-based identicons, expiration times, Markdown format support, syntax highlighting for source code, file upload support, customizable templates, and a translation system. If you encounter any issues or have ideas for further developments, the PrivateBin community welcomes reports and suggestions. Overall, PrivateBin is a reliable and secure platform for sharing and storing sensitive information while protecting the privacy and anonymity of its users. ## Industries - 🖥 Computers Electronics and Technology - 🖥 File Sharing and Hosting _(under Computers Electronics and Technology)_ ## Links - [github](https://github.com/PrivateBin) ## Logos & icons - logo _(primary)_ — PNG, SVG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/id8BJnpUit/w/820/h/820/theme/light/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1774398951370) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Nero | #0f0f00 | accent | | Red Berry | #960001 | dark | | White | #ffffff | light | ## Fonts - Helvetica Neue — asset _(custom)_ - var(--bs-font-sans-serif) — asset _(custom)_ --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
