No. We delete the documents after sending and do not operate long-term storage.

How do I know my fax was sent?

After submission you’ll see the technical fax status. You can also download a PDF payment/submission receipt. The receipt does not prove delivery or confirm that the recipient read or processed the document.

Do you store my files?

Files follow an automatic deletion schedule: unpaid uploads within about 30 minutes and paid fax files within 2 hours. A transmission provider must process the file to attempt delivery; see the privacy policy for details.
