-# Few notes about server side encryption
+## Server side encryption

 
 Data encryption can be activated in options. This feature makes the server encrypt data and send the decryt key to the user (inside download URL).
 The decrypt key is not stored on the server so if you loose an url, you won't be able to retrieve file content.
