Server role is metadata control-plane
Authentication, discovery, signaling and push are handled server-side without storing message payload.
Privacy and security
DiroChat is built so cloud services coordinate sessions and identity, while message payload remains device-to-device.
Direct payload delivery
Messages and media use direct encrypted channels. Runtime relay routes are not used for payload transfer.
Push without message text
Push notifications are designed to avoid message content body and keep payload access device-bound.
Operational safeguards
Rate limits, abuse controls and minimal logging practices are applied for service integrity.
Transparent constraints
Direct-only means some restricted network conditions may require users to change network for successful delivery.
