Third-party services

Railway, our hosting provider, runs the site, the server and the database, so everything the server holds sits there. When downloads are open, the installers sit in open releases on GitHub, which sees the address of whoever downloads one.

Railway also logs every request to the site and the server with the IP address it came from. It shows us each entry for up to 90 days, depending on our plan with Railway.

A mail service and a payment service will be added to this page in the edition that starts sending them data.

A profile with a proxy sends these requests through that proxy, and these services see the proxy's address.

• Exit country lookup

  ipwho.is, ipinfo.io, ipapi.co, get.geojs.io, and api.ipify.org for the start page. They answer which address and country a site will see.

• Engine component updates

  update.googleapis.com, edgedl.me.gvt1.com and the mirrors it names (redirector.gvt1.com, dl.google.com). The update check also carries the profile's language, your memory size and system version.

• Extension updates

  update.googleapis.com, clients2.google.com and clients2.googleusercontent.com, if you installed an extension from the Chrome Web Store inside a profile: checking for and downloading its new versions, as Chrome does. The check carries the same memory size and system version as the component check, plus that extension's ID and version and the profile's language.

• Network time

  clients2.google.com, for pages that warn about a wrong clock.

• Google sign-in check

  accounts.google.com, the same check Chrome makes, with the Google cookies of that profile.

• Site notifications

  android.clients.google.com and mtalk.google.com, the channel that site notifications arrive through.

• Safe browsing lists

  safebrowsing.googleapis.com, the lists Chrome uses to warn about dangerous sites.

These requests do not go through a profile's proxy, and these services see your own address.

• Your public IP address

  ipwho.is, ipinfo.io, ipapi.co and get.geojs.io, asked for your own address and country.

• The proxy check on the start page

  api.ipify.org or ipwho.is, asked for your own address to compare it with the address of the profile.

• Profiles without a proxy

  Everything in the list above goes out over your own connection.

• Extensions from the store

  clients2.google.com, for downloading an extension and for the check for updates every few hours.

• Network diagnostics and the clock

  1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) and www.google.com, when you run network diagnostics or the app checks the clock.

We send none of these services your email or anything else from your ARMANOS account. What they see is the request itself and the address it came from.

No analytics, no error reporter, no advertising network and no chat widget, on the site or in the app.

A service appears on this page in the same edition that starts sending it data. The list is checked against the code of the app, the server and the site, so a new service cannot be added without a new line here.
