Privacy

LibraIRC is run by volunteers. We collect as little as possible, we do not sell or share data for advertising, and this website uses no cookies, analytics or third-party trackers.

• No cookies, no analytics, no ads, no external fonts or scripts.
• Your light/dark choice is stored in your own browser (localStorage) and never sent to us.
• The live status comes from status.librairc.net, which only publishes whether our servers and web clients are online.
• Like any web server, our hosting may keep standard access logs (IP address, time, page) for security.

• Your IP address is seen by our IRC servers — including when you use one of our web clients, which forward it so that abuse can be handled fairly. Other users see a hidden host instead.
• Private messages are not logged by the network.
• Registered accounts store your nickname, a hashed password, your e-mail address and settings you choose (such as certificate fingerprints). The e-mail address is only used for account confirmation, password resets and memo notifications.
• Connecting addresses may be checked against public abuse blocklists (DNSBLs).
• Web clients do not keep guest sessions or chat history on our servers.

You can use LibraIRC without an account. To delete a registered nickname run /msg NickServ DROP yournick and follow the confirmation step, or ask staff via the helpdesk. Last updated: November 2026.
