| 14 | +cobalt's privacy policy is simple: we don't collect or store anything about you. |
| 15 | +what you do is solely your business, not ours or anyone else's. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +these terms are applicable only when using the official cobalt instance. in |
| 18 | +other cases, you may need to contact the instance hoster for accurate info. |

| 26 | + |
| 27 | +tools that use on-device processing work offline, locally, and never send any |
| 28 | +processed data anywhere. they are explicitly marked as such whenever applicable. |

| 33 | + title={$t("about.heading.saving")} |
| 34 | + sectionId="saving" |
| 35 | +/> |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +when using saving functionality, cobalt may need to proxy or remux/transcode |
| 38 | +files. if that's the case, then a temporary tunnel is created for this purpose |
| 39 | +and minimal required information about the media is stored for 90 seconds. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +on an unmodified & official cobalt instance, **all tunnel data is encrypted with |
| 42 | +a key that only the end user has access to**. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +encrypted tunnel data may include: |
| 45 | +- origin service's name. |
| 46 | +- original URLs for media files. |
| 47 | +- internal arguments needed to differentiate between types of processing. |
| 48 | +- minimal file metadata (generated filename, title, author, creation year, |
| 49 | + copyright info). |
| 50 | +- minimal information about the original request that may be used in case of an |
| 51 | + URL failure during the tunnelling process. |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +this data is irreversibly purged from server's RAM after 90 seconds. no one has |
| 54 | +access to cached tunnel data, even instance owners, as long as cobalt's source |
| 55 | +code is not modified. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +media data from tunnels is never stored/cached anywhere. everything is processed |
| 58 | +live, even during remuxing and transcoding. cobalt tunnels function like an |
| 59 | +anonymous proxy. |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +if your device supports local processing, then encrypted tunnel info includes |
| 62 | +way less info, because it's returned to client instead. |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +see the [related source code on |
| 65 | +github](https://github.com/imputnet/cobalt/tree/main/api/src/stream) to learn |
| 66 | +more about how it works. |

| 75 | +temporarily stored tunnel data is encrypted using the AES-256 standard. |
| 76 | +decryption keys are only included in the access link and never |
| 77 | +logged/cached/stored anywhere. only the end user has access to the link & |
| 78 | +encryption keys. keys are generated uniquely for each requested tunnel. |
