Your Data is Yours
Better Messages does not store any private data on its WebSocket servers.
How it works
All message content, user data, attachments, and conversation history are stored exclusively in your WordPress website's database. The WebSocket server only temporarily processes encrypted event routing data — such as user IDs, thread IDs, and delivery statuses — to facilitate real-time delivery. Once events are delivered, no data is retained on the WebSocket infrastructure. You maintain full ownership and control of all your messaging data.
