# The main web server

All of this data **can be seen by anyone in the group chat**, unless you have specifically configured your account or your homeserver to limit certain data. There's also data that gets processed by [t2bot's Telegram bridge bot](https://t2bot.io/docs/legal/privacy-v1/) and [Telegram](https://telegram.org/privacy), each with their own privacy policies. None of the data is given or sold to any third parties on my end. You can request data download and/or deletion at any time by [contacting me](/contact), preferably by email. In the event of a data breach or exposure, it will be announced on the [server status Mastodon account](https://mastodon.world/@gmgserverstatus) and/or, if you're directly affected, will be communicated privately if possible.
Later on a replacement of t2bot's Telegram bridge bot is planned with a selfhosted Matterbridge that's more reliable and that connects also to other platforms such as Discord and XMPP. Whenever this change will occurr, it will affect the terms of service and privacy policy of the group chat.
# The PeerTube server
The PeerTube server is a video hosting server that's ActivityPub-compatible where people can watch, like, dislike and comment on my videos and also subscribe to my channels.
![Screenshot of the PeerTube web UI displaying my main channel](/tos/img/peertube.png)
The server does **not** allow people to sign up, so in order to interact with the content, users must log into another PeerTube or ActivityPub-compatible server and interact from there through federation (may be limited by server settings of mine and of others.)
## Terms for using the PeerTube server
Here's what you can and can't do:
- you can watch any video from this PeerTube server or from another;
- you can subscribe to my account and any of my channels;
- you can comment on videos as long as you're not disrespectful, annoying, harmful or spamming;
- you can report any comment that you think is abusive;
- you can report any remote content that's appearing on the trending or discover sections that you think is abusive.
Also there are some things that I am exclusively allowed to do at any time:
- delete any local video, channel or comment, including comments from other users;
- allow or disallow federation with any specific server;
- mute any remote account;
- manipulate the videos that will appear in the trending and discover sections.
## Privacy when using the PeerTube server
The data the server gets when using the PeerTube server:
- your federation data (username, profile picture, etc.);
- any local video you watch;
- any like, dislike, subscription or comment of yours on local content.
All of this data is **can be seen by the server and who can access the backend**, that means me. Treat comments as a public space and don't just give away sensitive info, considering also how federation can make your comments and other account data visible to other servers and people. None of the data is given or sold to any third parties. You can request data download and/or deletion at any time by [contacting me](/contact), preferably by email. In the event of a data breach or exposure, it will be announced on the [server status Mastodon account](https://mastodon.world/@gmgserverstatus) and/or, if you're directly affected, will be communicated privately if possible.
