# Privacy Policy

_Last updated: 2026-09-29_

This policy covers tty7 and the tty7 mobile app ("the app").

## Summary

tty7 does not collect, sell or share personal data. There are no accounts, no
analytics, no advertising and no tracking. Your terminal data travels only
between your phone and a computer you paired it with yourself.

## What the app handles

- **Terminal content and input.** The app shows the terminal panes and agent
  status of your paired computer and sends your keystrokes back to it. This data
  goes directly between your devices and is not stored by us.
- **Pairing information.** To connect, the app keeps a device key and the list
  of computers you paired with on your phone. Your computer keeps the list of
  phones it trusts. Both stay on your devices. You can unpair a phone from the
  desktop app at any time (Settings → Mobile).
- **Camera.** The camera is used only to scan the pairing QR code shown on your
  computer. Images are processed on the phone and never stored or sent anywhere.
- **Local network.** The app may look for your computer on the local network to
  connect to it directly.

## How connections work

The phone connects to your computer with [iroh](https://iroh.computer).
Connections are end-to-end encrypted. When a direct connection is not possible,
traffic passes through a public relay server, which forwards encrypted packets it
cannot read. Relay operators may see technical connection metadata such as IP
addresses, as with any internet service.

## Third parties

The app contains no third-party analytics, crash reporting or advertising SDKs.

## Children

The app is not directed at children and collects no data from anyone.

## Changes

Changes to this policy are published in this file; its history is visible in
the repository.
