Security
How we protect your data — stated plainly, without certifications we don't have.
What we do
- Encryption in transit: TLS on every connection (terminate at your reverse proxy / host).
- API authentication: mutating API endpoints require an
X-API-Keyheader when a key is configured - Input validation: every endpoint validates its inputs; malformed requests get a
400, never a stack trace. - Output escaping: user content is HTML-escaped before rendering, against stored cross-site scripting.
- Secrets: all credentials come from environment variables; sample configs ship as
.env.examplewith empty values. - Backups: the current production deploy runs on an ephemeral filesystem — the database is not automatically backed up nightly; backups are an operator procedure in the self-host install. the SQLite database file is backed up nightly in production deploys.
- Least privilege: production runs as an unprivileged user; the database directory is not web-served.
What we don't claim
- We are not SOC 2 audited and make no HIPAA-certification claims (no such software certification exists).
- Where the product touches regulated data, the relevant compliance gate (e.g., signed BAAs) is completed before real data is processed — not after.
