Terms and Conditions

Last updated: July 8, 2026

Welcome to UploadWings. These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of the UploadWings website and file transfer service. By accessing or using UploadWings, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use the service.

1. About Our Service

UploadWings provides a temporary file sharing and data transfer service that allows users to upload and share files, images, documents, and other data through generated download links, email delivery, password protection, and restricted access options.

UploadWings is designed as a temporary file transfer service. Uploaded files are not intended to be stored permanently.

2. Eligibility and Acceptance of Terms

By using UploadWings, you represent that you are legally capable of entering into a binding agreement under applicable law.

If you use UploadWings on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to accept these Terms on behalf of that entity.

3. User Responsibilities

By using UploadWings, you agree that:

  • You have the legal right and necessary permissions to upload, transfer, and share the files you submit.
  • You will use the service only for lawful purposes.
  • You will not upload, distribute, or share illegal, harmful, abusive, infringing, fraudulent, or malicious content.
  • You will not use UploadWings to distribute malware, viruses, ransomware, phishing content, spam, or harmful software.
  • You are responsible for ensuring that recipient email addresses and other information you provide are accurate.
  • You are responsible for sharing download links and transfer passwords securely.
  • You will not attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems, servers, storage infrastructure, accounts, files, or networks.
  • You will not interfere with, damage, overload, disrupt, or misuse the service.

4. Information We Collect

4.1 Transfer Data

When you upload, share, access, or download files through UploadWings, we may collect information necessary to operate the service, including:

  • File metadata, including the file name, file size, and file type or MIME type.
  • Transfer information, including transfer identifiers, expiry settings, timestamps, and transfer status.
  • Recipient email addresses when you choose email delivery or restricted access mode.
  • Password-related data when you enable password protection for a transfer.

Recipient email addresses are used only as necessary to deliver download links, provide restricted access functionality, operate the requested transfer, prevent abuse, or comply with applicable legal obligations.

Transfer passwords are hashed before storage and are not stored in readable plain-text form. Our staff cannot view or recover transfer passwords.

We do not routinely read, scan, or access the contents of files uploaded to UploadWings. However, files or related information may be accessed where reasonably necessary to investigate a valid abuse report, protect the security and integrity of the service, enforce these Terms, or comply with applicable law or valid legal requests.

4.2 Usage and Technical Data

We may collect technical and usage information, including:

  • IP address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device type.
  • Pages visited.
  • Request and activity timestamps.
  • Technical information necessary for security, troubleshooting, and abuse prevention.

4.3 Analytics Event Data

To monitor the performance and reliability of UploadWings, we may collect service analytics and operational events, including:

  • Upload lifecycle events, such as upload started, cancelled, failed, and completed.
  • Download events, including download mode, such as single-file download, ZIP download, or direct-link download.
  • The total file count and transfer size associated with a transfer that is accessed.
  • Network connectivity events when a connection drops or is restored during an active upload.
  • Upload progress information at the time of a network connectivity event.

4.4 Communications

When you contact UploadWings through our contact form or support email, we may collect and process the information you provide, including your email address, message, and any other information you choose to provide.

5. How We Use Information

We may use collected information to:

  • Provide and operate the UploadWings file transfer service.
  • Upload, temporarily store, process, deliver, and make files available to intended recipients.
  • Generate and manage transfer and download links.
  • Send download link emails when requested by a sender.
  • Provide and enforce password-protected and restricted transfers.
  • Protect UploadWings against abuse, fraud, attacks, unauthorized access, and other security threats.
  • Apply rate limits and other security controls.
  • Troubleshoot errors and technical problems.
  • Monitor upload and download reliability and service performance.
  • Investigate abuse reports and violations of these Terms.
  • Respond to support requests and other communications.
  • Comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, and valid legal requests.

6. File Storage and Retention

Uploaded files are temporarily stored using Cloudflare R2 cloud storage infrastructure.

Files are automatically deleted within 24 hours after the applicable transfer expiry period ends.

Files may also be deleted earlier where requested by the user, where such functionality is available, or where we reasonably believe deletion is necessary to prevent abuse, protect the service, enforce these Terms, or comply with applicable law.

After files are deleted from our active systems, they may no longer be available for download and may not be recoverable.

UploadWings is not a permanent storage, backup, or archival service. You are solely responsible for maintaining your own copies and backups of files.

7. Password-Protected Transfers

UploadWings may allow users to protect transfers using passwords.

Transfer passwords are hashed before storage and are not stored in readable plain-text form. UploadWings staff cannot view, retrieve, or recover your transfer password.

Password hashes are deleted when the associated transfer expires or is deleted, subject to any limited retention required by applicable law, security requirements, or legitimate dispute resolution needs.

You are responsible for choosing a secure password and communicating the password securely to intended recipients.

8. Session ID and Browser Local Storage

UploadWingsmay generate a random UUID and store it in your browser's localStorage under the identifier uploadwings_session_id.

The session identifier is used to group operational and analytics events originating from the same browser session or browser installation.

The session identifier is not intentionally linked to a registered user account or used by UploadWings to directly identify an individual.

You can remove the session identifier by clearing your browser's local storage. Clearing browser storage may reset certain service functionality or analytics grouping.

9. Cookies

UploadWings uses strictly necessary cookies to operate, secure, and protect the service, including cookies used for CSRF protection, rate limiting, security, and essential session management.

UploadWings also uses Google Analytics 4 for site analytics. Analytics cookies are only set after you give your consent via the cookie banner shown on your first visit. You may decline at any time; if declined, Google Analytics will not run. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.

UploadWings does not use third-party advertising cookies, marketing cookies, or third-party behavioral tracking cookies.

10. Third-Party Service Providers

UploadWings uses third-party service providers to operate and maintain the service. These providers may process limited information on our behalf as necessary to provide their services.

Our service providers include Cloudflare, including Cloudflare R2, for cloud storage, infrastructure, security, performance, and related services, as applicable.

Third-party service providers process information subject to their applicable agreements, security obligations, and data protection requirements.

11. Data Security

UploadWings uses reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect files and other information processed through the service.

Security measures may include:

  • HTTPS encryption for data transmitted between your browser and UploadWings.
  • Access controls designed to limit access to stored files and service infrastructure.
  • Hashed storage of transfer passwords.
  • Rate limiting and abuse prevention controls.
  • Security monitoring and technical safeguards designed to protect the service.

However, no internet transmission, cloud storage system, or online service can guarantee complete security. You acknowledge and accept the security risks associated with transmitting and sharing files over the internet.

If UploadWings becomes aware of a personal data breach affecting senders or recipients, we will provide notifications to affected individuals and relevant authorities where required by applicable law.

  • Is uploaded, transferred, or shared without the necessary legal rights, permissions, or consent.
  • Attempts to bypass file size limits, rate limits, security controls, access restrictions, or other technical limitations.
  • Places an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure.

13. Abuse Reports and Enforcement

UploadWings may investigate valid reports of illegal content, intellectual property violations, security threats, abuse, or violations of these Terms.

Where reasonably necessary, we may disable download links, restrict transfers, delete files, preserve relevant records, block users or IP addresses, suspend access to the service, or take other appropriate actions.

We may cooperate with law enforcement agencies, courts, regulators, and other competent authorities where required by applicable law or valid legal process.

Abuse reports may be sent to contact@uploadwings.com.

14. Ownership of Uploaded Files

You retain any ownership rights you have in the files and content you upload to UploadWings.

By uploading files, you grant UploadWings a limited, non-exclusive right to host, store, reproduce, process, transmit, and make the files available solely as necessary to operate the service, complete your requested transfer, maintain security, enforce these Terms, and comply with applicable law.

This limited right ends when the files are deleted from our systems, except where continued retention or processing is required by applicable law.

15. Intellectual Property Rights

The UploadWings website, branding, logos, software, design, interface, and other service-related materials, excluding files uploaded by users, are owned by or licensed to UploadWings and may be protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, sell, license, reverse engineer, modify, or exploit our service or proprietary materials except as permitted by applicable law or with our prior written permission.

16. No Permanent Storage or Backup

UploadWings is intended only for temporary file transfers.

You must not rely on UploadWings as your only copy, backup, archive, or permanent storage location for any file or data.

You are responsible for maintaining independent copies of all files uploaded to the service.

17. Transfer Links and Recipient Access

Anyone who obtains a valid unrestricted download link may be able to access the files associated with that transfer until the transfer expires, is deleted, or is otherwise disabled.

You are responsible for sharing transfer links and passwords only with intended recipients.

UploadWings is not responsible for access resulting from a sender or recipient sharing, forwarding, publishing, exposing, or failing to protect a transfer link or password.

18. Service Availability

We aim to provide a reliable file transfer service, but we do not guarantee that UploadWings will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

Uploads, downloads, transfers, or service functionality may be interrupted because of maintenance, technical failures, network conditions, third-party service outages, security incidents, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

We may modify, restrict, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the service at any time, subject to applicable law.

19. Suspension and Termination

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to UploadWings, disable transfer links, or delete transfers where we reasonably believe that:

  • You have violated these Terms.
  • You are using the service for unlawful, fraudulent, harmful, or abusive purposes.
  • Your activity creates a security risk or threatens the integrity of the service.
  • Action is necessary to comply with applicable law or a valid legal request.
  • Action is necessary to protect UploadWings, our users, third parties, or our service providers.

20. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, UploadWingsis provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.

We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, completely secure, or that every upload, download, email notification, or transfer will be successfully completed.

We do not guarantee that uploaded files will remain available until the selected expiry time where deletion, suspension, technical failure, legal requirements, security concerns, or other circumstances require earlier removal.
