any other user.

We maintain a `list of public CryptPad instances <https://cryptpad.org/instances>`_ to let you better decide on whom you want to trust.

CryptPad does only provide a weak form of anonymity. Your chosen CryptPad instance can see your IP address and your "user agent" (browser and operating system).

If you need stronger anonymity guarantees, you can access CryptPad via `Tor <https://www.torproject.org>`_.

Passwords for documents and folders

When you share the link to a document or shared folder through an insecure channel (for example email or SMS), someone might intercept the link and gain access to your data. To prevent this from happening, the :ref:`owners <owners>` of a document or folder can add a password.

When you :ref:`share documents with your contacts and teams directly on CryptPad <share_contacts>`, communications are encrypted and we assume that you want to give them access. Therefore the password is remembered and sent with the document/folder when you share it. The recipient, or yourself, are **not** asked for it when they open the document.

You can add a password to a document when you :ref:`create <new_document>` it.

You can also add or change the password in the :ref:`access` menu:

From the CryptDrive: ``Right click`` > |unlock-alt| **Access**.
