Scope

This security policy applies to:

  • All AnonChatX applications
  • Services, tooling, and infrastructure code

Responsible Disclosure

We aim to:

  • Acknowledge valid reports in a reasonable timeframe
  • Work toward a fix before public disclosure
  • Credit reporters when appropriate (if desired)

Please allow time for investigation and remediation before any public discussion.


Philosophy

AnonChatX is designed for users who may operate under adversarial conditions.

Security decisions prioritize:
