SeeOnce Privacy

SeeOnce encrypts your email messages so they self-destruct after the recipient has read them. It does this without involving any servers or forcing you to make an account anywhere. You can keep using your preferred email.

All other apps and extensions store your private content somewhere. SeeOnce does not do this; instead, it achieves forward secrecy by changing encryption keys with every message. This way, you don't have to trust anybody.

When you get a locked message, just paste it into the extension and it will open automatically. Then you can reply directly from within the extension.

Your friends don't need to have this extension. Messages open in a webpage just by clicking them. They can do this on an Android smartphone if necessary.

Some people live in places where using encryption is itself compromising. This is why the extension can disguise its output so it looks like normal text. Just supply a sufficiently long cover text after the message is locked. Disguised messages also unlock as soon as you paste them in.

If you find yourself exchanging a lot of emails, SeeOnce allows you to switch to real-time chat, which can involve text, files, audio, or even video. Just click the Chat button to make a secure invitation that only your correspondent can open, and then only once.
