Declaration version 1 · fixed text

Why publish the same declaration regularly?

Sometimes the recipient of a legal demand is forbidden to tell anyone about it. A canary gives readers a regularly repeated positive statement to follow. If renewal stops, that gap may be informative even though the demand itself is never described. Check how the page is maintained and look for independent evidence.

Save today’s copy for your next visit

Download or save the declaration, and keep any signature actually provided. When you return, compare the claims, dates and arrangement with your copy. A change deserves a closer look. You can also consult an independent record such as the Wayback Machine rather than relying on a single visit.

Questions about this statement

Is the canary enough on its own?

No. Compare it with the provider policies, use of encryption and other checkable information. Countries have different legal rules, and compelled renewal may be possible.

Which jurisdiction applies?

The law that applies depends on the operator, the service and the location concerned. The United States' NSL framework does not describe every country. A list of hosting locations does not by itself establish protection from a confidential order.
