Privacy

What we keep

• Your name. The one you type when you first open GoBraw, or the one your sign-in gives us.
• Your email address, if you sign in and Google or Microsoft has checked it is yours.
• The id Google or Microsoft uses for your account. It is a number, not a password.
• Each device you use GoBraw on: its name, what kind it is (Mac, Windows and so on), a public key that lets it prove it is yours, and when it was added and last seen.
• A scrambled copy of the key that keeps a device signed in. We cannot read the key back from it.
• If you make a Place or are added to one: the Place’s name, its buildings’ and screens’ names, its bookings, who its members are and what each may do.
• If someone adds you to a Place by your email address before you have signed in: that address, for up to 30 days unless the Place sets another time.
• If you share a work: its name and who may open it. Never its slides.

What Google and Microsoft give us

• When you sign in we ask for three things only: that it is you, your email address and your name (the permissions called openid, email and profile).
• If it is a work or school account, we also see which organisation it belongs to. We use it only to put you in a Place that has asked for everyone from that organisation.
• We never see your password. GoBraw has no passwords of its own.
• We cannot read your mail, your calendar, your contacts or your files.
• We check the sign-in once and do not keep the token Google or Microsoft sent.

What we never keep

• Your work. Slides, words, pictures and video stay on your own computers. GoBraw will never have storage.
• Presses on a shared screen. If you share a screen in your Place, GoBraw Host on your computer writes down each press made on it by a member from elsewhere: who pressed, their computer's ID, the screen, the press and the time. It stays on your computer and is never sent to us. Each day's record is deleted after 30 days.
• Passwords.
• This website sets no cookies and has no tracking. Everything on it, its typeface too, comes from gobraw.com. Nothing is loaded from anyone else.

Where it is kept

• On servers run for us by Railway, in its EU West region (Amsterdam, the Netherlands). The database is there too.

Logs

• The logs we write say what happened, with ids and counts. They never carry a name, an email address or anything you typed.
• To stop one computer flooding sign-in, we count tries against a scrambled form of its network address, never the address itself. Each count is deleted when its minute or hour is over.

How to be forgotten

• In GoBraw Studio, open You and press Forget me on GoBraw. Your account, your devices and your sign-ins are deleted from our servers. A Place only you are in goes with you.
• Your computer keeps your work. Forgetting never deletes it.
• If other people are in a Place and you are its only owner, GoBraw asks you to hand it to someone first.

Linked storageNot available yet

• Later you will be able to link your own storage, OneDrive first and Google Drive after, so a screen in another building can fetch a work’s pictures and video.
• The files will sit in your storage, not ours. This page will say what that asks for before it is switched on.
