Privacy

subraum is built for data minimisation.

What does NOT happen

No audio/chat recording. Voice and text are peer-to-peer (DTLS-SRTP / encrypted DataChannel) and are stored nowhere.
No accounts, no login, no tracking, no ads, no cookies.
The brokering server never sees media — voice/chat never pass through it.

Signaling: to connect, the apps exchange connection data via the server (SDP/ICE candidates, chosen display name, room/session mapping). This lives only in memory and is dropped once the room is empty (within 24 h at most).
Session brokering: a random code + 6-digit PIN are held temporarily in memory (max 24 h) to let mates join without configuration.
Connection metadata: like any internet service the server technically sees IP addresses on connect; they are not persistently logged.
TURN relay (fallback only): if no direct path is possible, encrypted audio may pass through a relay. It forwards only encrypted bytes and cannot decrypt them.

Installers are served via GitHub Releases (GitHub's privacy terms apply to the download). STUN/TURN may use public STUN servers for NAT discovery.
