Traditionally diaries have been a safe place to put your private thoughts, and reading someone else’s diary is considered taboo.

These days people share their thoughts and feelings on social media, with their posts used to target advertisting and content based on propritery algorithms.

Journl.Me cannot read your diary, neither can server admins, hackers or anyone snooping on your network. Your journal is private again with all the benefits of being online and sharable as and when you choose to do so.

Benefits of end to end encryption #

End-to-end encryption is a security measure that ensures that only the sender and intended recipient of a message can read its contents. When applied to an online journal, end-to-end encryption offers several benefits:

Privacy: End-to-end encryption ensures that only the user can access the contents of their journal. Even if the journal is stored on a remote server, the data is encrypted in such a way that only the user can decrypt it. This protects the user’s privacy and ensures that their personal thoughts and feelings are kept confidential.
Security: End-to-end encryption makes it extremely difficult for hackers and other unauthorized parties to access the user’s journal. The encryption process scrambles the data in such a way that it is virtually impossible to decipher without the proper decryption key.
Trust: End-to-end encryption gives users greater confidence in the security and privacy of their journal. They can trust that their personal data is being protected from unauthorized access, and that their journal is secure even if the online platform is hacked.
Legal compliance: End-to-end encryption can help us comply with legal requirements related to data privacy and protection. By implementing robust encryption protocols, we can demonstrate that we take the security of their users’ data seriously.

End-to-end encryption offers a significant level of protection for users of Journl.Me, ensuring that your personal thoughts and feelings are kept confidential and secure.

If you lose your password and recovery phrases there is no way to get back in to your journal. Keep these somewhere safe!
