Changed
- Everchat Source-Available License: inspect, verify, contribute, and
install official releases; no redistributing Everchat as your own
product. Trademark policy in TRADEMARK.md. - Privacy copy says Everchat has no trackers (not “no third-party trackers”)
Security
- Supabase RLS, invoker-safe RPCs, and WebAuthn edge functions
- Theme skins apply through a constructed stylesheet so CSP
style-srcstill holds - Release zip build patches transitive adm-zip 0.6.0 so extraction refuses destination symlinks
- No analytics pixels; support via Buy Me a Coffee
