* SEO Control:
  * Public links are set to “no-index” to prevent search engines from indexing the content, ensuring privacy and control over the shared data.
* Customizable Expiration:
  * Set an expiration date for the published content to automatically delete after a specified number of days, providing an extra layer of security.
