SUMMON GHOST ALBUM

type the ghost album's name below

once summoned, this album will become a regular album, and it will not automatically ghost itself back. if you'd like to ghost this album again, you'll need to do this manually.

why can't cryptee automatically re-ghost albums?

With Cryptee, the names of all your photos and albums are encrypted on your device, using your encryption key. So cryptee's servers don't know, and can't see the names of your photos or albums. The un-encrypted names of your albums, only exist in the memory of your device, and only while you're logged in, and while cryptee's app / page is open. Auto-ghosting albums would require ghosting albums after you've logged out or closed the app / page. But since cryptee's servers don't know the names of your photos or albums, your albums cannot be automatically ghosted by cryptee's servers after you've closed the app. Due to this subtle technical detail, albums can only be ghosted by you, and you only. So if you need an album to be ghosted / hidden again after you've summoned it, you'll have to do it yourself before closing Cryptee's app / page.

what's a ghost album?

You might find yourself in a situation requiring you to hand over access to your account under stressful/forceful conditions. Cryptee's unique Ghost Albums feature allows you to hide certain albums, and be able to deny these albums' existence. Ghost (hidden) albums are temporarily removed from your account, and they can only be brought back (summoned), by typing their exact names in the "Summon Ghost Album" field below.
To make a ghost album,
click or next to the album.
Then click ghost.

CANVAS BLOCKER DETECTED

your files & photos come in all shapes and sizes, and they need to be cropped and resized to generate thumbnails. unencrypted services do this on their servers because they can see & access your photos. with Cryptee, your photos are encrypted on your device using your encryption key so that even we can't access them. to achieve this level of zero-knowledge, thumbnails need to be generated using your browser's canvas on your device before they're encrypted.

please disable your canvas blocker extension, or untoggle the privacy.resistFingerprinting flag of your browser (which blocks access to canvas) to start uploading files & photos.
