First and foremost, I am extremely grateful for this service.

I currently pay for the "Professional" Plan for my personal nPub and the "Creator" Plan for nostr:nprofile1qqsvh2svs20dxgkp25wtvcvmfsytngn2e9llkn54jgz7a3uwaycny3gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxthwden5te0dehhxarj9e4h2mn8ve6j6eewwf5hqtcpr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucn0denkymmwvuhxxmmd9uua69zy.

If I upload media directly to nostr.build, but do not post a note with the link to an image/video/etc. then can those images be seen/found by users?

I would like to upload images for nostr:nprofile1qqsvh2svs20dxgkp25wtvcvmfsytngn2e9llkn54jgz7a3uwaycny3gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxthwden5te0dehhxarj9e4h2mn8ve6j6eewwf5hqtcpr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucn0denkymmwvuhxxmmd9uua69zy ahead of time to prepare notes in advance of my posting schedule, but want to make sure they can't be leaked ahead of that schedule. 
 I was just wondering the other day if there is a paid plan with the feature that keeps your uploads “private unless provided with a link” 🤔

(I don’t know but I hope so!)

 It is already so for all accounts’ holders. If you are talking about the ability to keep it private unless sharing is enabled, then I’ll need to implement the interface for that, backend can support it already. 
 That’s awesome 🔥🔥🔥 
 I don't know but have wondered the same thing  
 So how long do you want them not leaked for? Because I think each upload is a different url and idk how they generate the url.

So what I do is upload photos there and the maybe use them in posts a day or 2 later. They are technically public, but unless someone is actively scraping I think this works for me at least. 
 Any amount of time. I currently have posts planned out all the way out to the end of October.

I would like to have the links for the images to put in those posts so that I can have the posts fully prepared ahead of schedule.

At this time, I recognize that it is a third-party for my data storage, and that I am in fact TRUSTING that party. If I could set up my own server for nostr:nprofile1qqsvh2svs20dxgkp25wtvcvmfsytngn2e9llkn54jgz7a3uwaycny3gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxthwden5te0dehhxarj9e4h2mn8ve6j6eewwf5hqtcpr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucn0denkymmwvuhxxmmd9uua69zy, have relay and host images myself I would. However, it just isn't the focus right now. Long term plan. 
 All uploads immediately get a link, but the links are not public until you share them. In theory someone could guess a link, but it would not be easy, and even harder to find whose link it is. 
 I appreciate you taking the time to respond to this post and give me some clarity on how it works. This is excellent for my current purposes. Thank you and please keep up the great work!
