+ In addition to caching messages locally and delivering them to long-polling subscribers, all messages are also
+ published to Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) (if FirebaseKeyFile is set, which it is on ntfy.sh). This

Privacy policy

+ FAQ for details).

+ The web server does not log or otherwise store request paths, remote IP addresses or even topics or messages,
+ aside from a short on-disk cache (up to a day) to support the since= feature and service restarts.
