The Swap it! Encrypt it!™ service allows users to send files to recipients identified by a valid email address (the "Service") either through the swapitencryptit.com website (the "Site") or one of the Swap it! Encrypt it!™ software applications available for download from the Site (the "Software"). The Service operates by storing the user files on a Swap it! Encrypt it!™ server and then sending to the recipient an email message that contains a link to the user file. The recipient can then access and download the user file (for up to 24 hours) by clicking on the link.
