Secure hosting and storage of your files with TransferNow

TransferNow stores your AES-256 encrypted files as close to you as possible: based on your geolocation, we automatically choose the nearest region and, with a Premium account or higher, you can force a specific region — by continent (Europe, America, Asia) or by country (France, the Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, the United States). Performance, privacy, and data integrity are guaranteed by our distributed cloud infrastructure.

File storage

Where and how TransferNow stores your files

Take advantage of our global cloud infrastructure to send and receive files securely. By default, your files are stored as close to you as possible: we detect your geographic location to automatically offer you the nearest region. This maximizes privacy, performance, and speed.

With a Premium account or higher, you stay in control and can force a storage region at two levels: by continent (Europe, America, Asia) or by country (France, the Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, the United States) — to meet your performance and compliance requirements.

Automatic geolocation

Files stored as close to you as possible

Depending on where you send and share your files from, we automatically select the data center closest to you — even without an account, at the continental level (Europe, America, Asia) — for better performance.

Premium+ account2 levels

Choose a specific storage region

With a Premium account or higher, force a storage region at two levels: by continent (Europe, America, Asia) or by country (France, the Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, the United States). On a Team account or higher, you can also enforce it for all your users.

AES-256SSE-C

Encryption of stored files

Your files are encrypted at rest with AES-256 by default. To go further, enable SSE-C (server-side key-based encryption): your password acts as the key and is never stored — even we, as platform administrators, cannot view your files.

Password protection

Protect access to the download of your transfers with a password to strengthen control over your confidential documents.

A transfer template lets you pre-configure all your transfers or those of your users: more security, more productivity.

Antivirus

Storage scanned by antivirus

No malicious file lingers on our servers: every file is scanned as soon as it is uploaded, on its way into storage — not on demand at download time — and discarded if detected as dangerous. Storage therefore stays clean at all times; the full setup is detailed on our security page.

180-day recovery (Premium+)

Storage limited in time

A transfer’s storage is not eternal: upon expiration (or manual deletion), files are permanently deleted from our servers. Premium accounts and higher can, however, enable a recovery option for up to 180 days to restore a transfer — how it works is explained in detail on our security page.

File storage: frequently asked questions

How long are my files kept?

Up to 7 days for a free transfer; with an account, the duration is configurable up to 365 days, and you can deactivate a transfer at any time.

What happens to my files after expiration?

They are permanently deleted from our storage servers — just like with a manual deletion. Premium accounts and higher can enable a recovery option to restore a transfer for up to 180 days. How it works is explained in detail on our security page.

Can I choose the storage region for my files?

Yes, with a Premium account or higher, at two levels: by continent (Europe, America, Asia) or by country (France, the Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, the United States). Without an account, your files are automatically stored in the continental region closest to you.

Is my file storage encrypted?

Yes: your files are encrypted at rest with AES-256 by default. You can also enable SSE-C (key-based encryption), where your password acts as the key — we then cannot view them.

Who can access my stored files?

Only people with the link (and the password, if you enable one) can download a transfer. Files are scanned by antivirus and encrypted at rest.
