Privacy Policy

GhostLine is built to minimize data collection. We do not require signup, email, or profile information.

What we collect

• IP addresses and related request metadata when users connect.
• Room and client identifiers used to route WebSocket traffic.
• Connection logs stored in the database only for abuse prevention and troubleshooting.
• Optional Redis state when configured, used only for ephemeral room coordination between server instances.

What we do not collect

• No chat messages are stored on the server.
• No persistent message history is saved.
• No personal profile information, usernames, or contact details.
• No tracking cookies or third-party analytics are used by the server.

Data retention

Room state is held in memory and removed when rooms are closed or the server restarts. IP logs are retained only to detect abuse, manage rate limiting, and improve service stability.

How we use data

Data is used to:

• accept and route user connections to the correct room;
• prevent abuse and excessive requests;
• help diagnose server issues and maintain availability.

GhostLine does not sell or share your private communication data. All chat audio/video is exchanged peer-to-peer through WebRTC and is not persisted by GhostLine.
