  <h1>Privacy Statement</h1>
  <p class="muted">Reticulum LoRa Web Client and the <code>ws_bridge</code> tool · last updated 2026-06-22</p>

  <p class="lead"><strong>We do not collect any personal information.</strong> This is a static,
  serverless web application. There are no accounts, no analytics, no cookies, no tracking, and no
  server operated by us that receives, stores, or processes your data.</p>

  <h2>Data stays on your device</h2>
  <p>Everything the app creates or uses is stored locally in your browser's IndexedDB and never
  transmitted to us:</p>
  <ul>
    <li>Your Reticulum identity and private keys</li>
    <li>Contacts, messages, and conversation history</li>
    <li>Discovered nodes, bookmarks, and browsing history</li>
    <li>Settings (e.g. the chosen connection target)</li>
  </ul>
  <p>You can export or delete this data at any time from within the app or via your browser's
  "clear site data" controls.</p>

  <h2>Messages</h2>
  <p>Messages are end-to-end encrypted in your browser and travel only over the Reticulum network you
  choose to connect to (a local LoRa radio, or a Reticulum daemon you point the app at). We operate no
  server that can see or store your messages.</p>

  <h2>Hosting</h2>
  <p>The site is served as static files from GitHub Pages. Like any web host, GitHub may log standard
  request metadata (such as IP address and browser user-agent) when serving files; this is handled by
  GitHub under its own policies and is not accessible to us. We add no analytics or other collection on
  top of it. JavaScript libraries are bundled and served from this same site — no third-party CDN is
  used.</p>

  <h2>Third-party requests (only for specific features)</h2>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Map tiles</strong> — the Nodes map view loads tiles from OpenStreetMap
    (<code>tile.openstreetmap.org</code>), which receives your IP address and the map area you view.
    Open under OpenStreetMap's policy. If you never open the map, no tile requests are made.</li>
    <li><strong>Firmware version check</strong> — the optional RNode firmware flasher page queries the
    public GitHub API (<code>api.github.com</code>) for the latest firmware release. No identifiers
    beyond a standard web request are sent.</li>
    <li><strong>Bridge download</strong> — downloading the <code>ws_bridge</code> binary is a normal
    file download from this site (GitHub Pages).</li>
  </ul>

  <h2>The ws_bridge tool</h2>
  <p>The optional <code>ws_bridge</code> program runs locally on your own machine. It forwards bytes
  between your browser and the Reticulum daemon you choose, and copies them without inspecting or
  modifying message content. It collects nothing, stores nothing, and sends nothing of its own to any
  third party.</p>

  <h2>Cookies</h2>
  <p>None are set.</p>
