Privacy

what Blueweave stores, where, and for how long

In your own repository

The accounts you follow, your display preferences and your saved posts are written to your PDS, under social.blueweave.*. They are yours: they stay if you stop using Blueweave, and they are readable by anything that can read your repository.

On the server

  • OAuth tokens, so you are not signed out on every deploy. Removed when you sign out, or when your PDS refuses them.
  • A session identifier in an httpOnly cookie, mapped server-side to your DID. The cookie holds no identity of its own. Expires after 30 days.
  • A short-lived cache of your feed and of the accounts fetched for it — 60 seconds for the feed, 15 minutes per source account. In memory, gone on restart.

What is not collected

No analytics, no third-party scripts, no advertising, no email address. The operator can see counts — how many people use it, how many accounts are followed — never who follows what, and never the content of a feed.

Requests leaving the server

Reading Mastodon and X means fetching public pages from the instances that serve them, from the server rather than from your browser. Those hosts see the server's address and the account being read — never yours.
