Anonymous paste — no account, no logs

What "anonymous" actually means here

• No account ever — not to create, not to delete, not for any feature. Open the page and paste.
• No IP address stored — rate-limiting hashes your IP with HMAC-SHA256 and throws away the original. There is no record linking your identity to a paste.
• No analytics on paste pages — paste view pages carry no tracking scripts, no third-party embeds.
• Not indexed by search engines — every paste page is served with noindex, nofollow. Google cannot find your paste.
• Optional end-to-end encryption — the server never sees the key; only someone with your share URL can decrypt.

How to create an anonymous paste

1. 1

   Open NullPaste

   Go to nullpaste.com. No account creation, no cookie banner — just the paste editor.

2. 2

   Type or paste your content

   Drop in text, code, logs, or any plain-text content. Syntax highlighting is detected automatically.

3. 3

   Choose your options (optional)

   Set an expiry, enable burn-after-read so the paste disappears after one view, add a password, or turn on end-to-end encryption.

4. 4

   Click Create Paste

   You get a short link to share and a delete code to remove the paste later — no account needed for either.

Frequently asked questions

What is an anonymous paste?

An anonymous paste is a block of text or code published at a unique link, with no account or identity attached. Anyone with the link can read it; no personal data is collected from the creator.

Does NullPaste log my IP address?

No. Raw IP addresses are never written to any log or database. Rate-limiting uses a one-way HMAC-SHA256 hash — the original IP cannot be recovered from it.

How is NullPaste different from anonpaste.io or similar services?

NullPaste is actively maintained, runs on modern infrastructure, and offers features most anonpaste clones do not: browser-side end-to-end encryption, burn-after-read, password protection, and a no-JavaScript raw endpoint. Your paste content is never analysed or monetised.

Can I delete an anonymous paste?

Yes. Every paste is created with a one-time delete code shown immediately after creation. Paste that code into the delete panel on the paste page to remove it — no account needed.

Does Google index my anonymous paste?

No. All paste pages are served with a noindex, nofollow robots directive and are never submitted to any search engine. Only you and anyone you share the link with can find the paste.

What is burn-after-read?

Burn-after-read means the paste is permanently deleted the moment someone opens the link for the first time. It cannot be read a second time. Useful for passwords, tokens, or any one-time secret.

Can I create an anonymous paste without JavaScript?

The create form requires JavaScript, but reading a paste works without it via the /raw/:id endpoint which returns plain text with no JavaScript.
