Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 30, 2026

Data Collection and Usage

lool is designed with privacy as a priority and adheres to Chrome Web Store's Limited Use requirements. The application does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data, browsing history, or analytics to any third party. All messages, files, and communications are encrypted locally on your device before being transmitted.

Zero-Knowledge Architecture

We only store encrypted data. We cannot read, view, or moderate your messages, files, or voice notes. Your encryption keys are generated in your browser and are stored on our servers only in encrypted form, which we cannot decrypt.

Local Keys and End-to-End Encryption

Temporary and permanent sessions are secured with AES-256-GCM. Keys are derived locally. The server only passes along data it cannot read. Local is a members-only group room, end-to-end encrypted with a room key that is passed between members' devices, so we cannot read it.

Chrome Extension (Send to lool)

The Send to lool Chrome extension only contacts the lool base URL configured by the user and the image/video URL the user explicitly right-clicks. No data is collected, stored, or transmitted to any third party. No analytics, SDKs, or remote code are used.

Email

Your mailbox password and cached mail are stored encrypted with a key only you hold, and removing the email account deletes them. During a sync or send, the server temporarily holds a session key to fetch on your behalf; the key lives only in memory for that request and is discarded when it finishes. The server never stores your mailbox password or your messages in a form it can read.
