Zero Logs Policy
Your Data Remains Yours
In an era of data mining and surveillance, we stand apart. We do not collect, store, profile, or sell your metadata. Discuss App is built on the unwavering foundation of absolute user privacy.
Zero-Knowledge Infrastructure
Our backend is designed to fundamentally lack access to your message contents. While we do log connection metadata (like IP addresses and session timestamps) strictly to secure the network against abuse and hackers, we never build social graphs or sell your data.
Transient Metadata
"Who" you talk to and "when" you talk to them (metadata) can be just as revealing as the message itself. Discuss App actively destroys this metadata from RAM the moment a message is successfully routed. There is no historical graph of your social network on our servers.
The "Black Box" Approach
Our administrative panels are strictly restricted. The underlying Rust database securely hashes and salts all authentications. Even internally, user data collections are cryptographically blinded, rendering it impossible for our engineers to view your profile without your explicit public key.
Independent Auditing
Don't just trust our words; trust the math. We regularly subject our infrastructure and client applications to rigorous third-party security audits. By relying on open-source cryptographic primitives, the global security community constantly verifies our zero-logs claims.
Our Privacy Guarantees:
- ✓ Ephemeral Storage: Delivered messages are permanently wiped from server memory.
- ✓ No Advertising: We never track behavior or sell ad space. Period.
- ✓ Metadata Minimization: Absolute minimum data processed to route a packet.
- ✓ Blind Routing: Erlang load balancers pass traffic without logging IP histories.
- ✓ No Phone Numbers Required: Create accounts anonymously using usernames.
- ✓ Open Source Clients: Verify exactly what the app is doing yourself.
