With the SendSafely Chrome Extension, you can send encrypted files and messages directly from Gmail or using our Chrome pop-out menu. It's never been easier for Chrome or Google Mail users to use SendSafely.

SendSafely is an end-to-end encryption platform that eliminates the need for pre-shared encryption keys and passwords. With SendSafely, nobody other than you and the people you send items to can view them...not even us.

  • Built on OpenPGP: OpenPGP is the most widely used email encryption standard in the world. It's been in development and use for years, and proves to be the best encryption available today.

  • Multi Factor Authentication: We offer an extra layer of security to keep your information secure. When users access items sent using SendSafely, they are prompted for a username and password, along with a unique SMS code.

  • No Software for Recipients: With SendSafely, the people you share items with don't need to download or install on anything on their computer. If they have a web browser, they can receive your files.
