# How LinkBoard works

A room is a temporary board shared by your devices. Everything you send appears on all of them in real time.

## Rooms

Each room gets a random code like J7K4-P2 and its own link. Open the link or scan the QR code on another device to join – no account needed.

Connected devices see new items instantly. They are shown simply as “This device” and “Device 2” – no names, models or IP addresses.

## Security

A room opens only with its link or code. Codes are random and attempts to guess them are limited.

For sensitive content, turn on “Require password” in the room settings. Everyone then has to enter the password to open the room.

All traffic between your devices and our server is encrypted with HTTPS.

## Automatic deletion

Rooms expire after 24 hours by default. You can choose 1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours or 7 days, or delete the room at any time.

When a room expires or is deleted, its texts, links and files are deleted from our server.

## Link previews

When you send a link, our server loads the page once to read its title, icon and preview picture. The website sees our server, not your device.

## Limits

Up to 100 MB per file, 500 MB and 500 items per room, and 100,000 characters per text.

## Questions and answers

### Is LinkBoard end-to-end encrypted?

No. Content is encrypted in transit with HTTPS and stored on our server only until the room expires. Use a password for sensitive rooms and don’t use LinkBoard for secrets you would not send by e-mail.

### Can someone guess my room code?

Codes are random and the number of wrong attempts per visitor is limited. A password makes a room safe even if the code is known.

### Can I recover a deleted room?

No. Deleted and expired rooms are gone for good.

### Do you track me?

No. There are no accounts, no analytics and no advertising trackers.
