Privacy policy

What Relay collects, why, and what stays on your own servers.

Draft: this policy describes how Relay works today and hasn't been reviewed by a lawyer yet. Last updated November 11, 2026.

What stays on your servers

Your applications, their data and the traffic they serve run on machines you own. Relay doesn't proxy or inspect requests to your apps.

What we collect

  • Account details. When you sign in with GitHub we receive your GitHub user ID, email address and avatar.
  • Workspace data. Your organization's name, its members and their roles, and invitations you send.
  • Server metadata. For each enrolled server: its name, operating system, architecture, CPU, memory and disk size, agent and Docker versions, public IP address, and when it was last seen.
  • Deployment data. Repository names, branches, commit hashes and messages, image tags, deployment status and timestamps, and the build and runtime logs of your deployments. Logs can contain whatever your build and app print, so avoid logging secrets.
  • Secrets you store. Environment variables you add to a project are encrypted at rest.
  • Activity and usage. An audit log of actions in your workspace, and counts such as deploys run and build time.

How we use it

To run the service: sign you in, connect your servers, run your deployments, show you their status and logs, keep your workspace secure, and fix problems. We don't sell your data.

Who else sees it

  • GitHub, which handles sign-in and runs your builds in GitHub Actions.
  • Infrastructure providers that host Relay's database, queue and servers, acting on our behalf.

Cookies and this website

  • The dashboard uses a session cookie that keeps you signed in.
  • This website sets a small relay_signed_in cookie from the dashboard, only so the buttons can say "Dashboard" instead of "Get started". It contains no personal information.
  • This website doesn't use advertising or analytics cookies.
  • Fonts on this website are loaded from Google Fonts, so your browser requests them from Google's servers.

Retention and deletion

We keep your data while your workspace exists. Deleting a project removes its deployments, domains and environment variables. To have your account or workspace deleted, email us.

Your choices

You can ask to access, correct or delete the personal data we hold about you. Revoking Relay's access in your GitHub settings stops it from reading your repositories.

Changes

We'll update this page when our practices change and revise the date above.
