Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 24, 2026

ChaosCast ("we", "us", "our") operates the chaoscast.live website and the ChaosCast OBS Plugin. This policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information.

Information We Collect

When you sign in with Twitch or YouTube/Google, we receive:

• Your display name and profile picture
• Your email address (if provided by the platform)
• An OAuth token to act on your behalf (e.g., manage YouTube live broadcasts)

When you configure streaming platforms, we store:

• RTMP URLs for each platform
• Stream keys, encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM

How We Use Your Information

• To authenticate you and maintain your session
• To send stream keys to your OBS instance so it can connect to your chosen platforms
• To create and manage YouTube live broadcasts on your behalf (if you sign in with YouTube)

We do not sell, share, or transfer your personal data to third parties. Your stream keys are only ever sent to your own OBS instance through a direct WebSocket connection.

YouTube API Services

ChaosCast uses YouTube API Services to enable automatic live broadcast management. By using this feature, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service and acknowledge Google's Privacy Policy.

We store YouTube OAuth refresh tokens (encrypted) to maintain access to your YouTube account for live streaming. You can revoke this access at any time through your Google Account permissions page.

Data Storage and Security

All sensitive data (stream keys, OAuth tokens) is encrypted using AES-256-GCM before being stored. Data is stored on our servers and is not replicated to third-party services.

Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. You can request deletion of your account and all associated data by contacting us.

Cookies

We use a session cookie to keep you signed in. We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
