Informational. The production privacy policy has not been finalised.

What ECHO stores today

An ECHO account holds an email address, which is used to sign in and to recover a password, and a username, which is a public identity within the platform. A church record holds its name and timezone, and a membership record links a person to a church with a role.

ECHO does not currently store financial records, documents, meeting minutes, or member directories. Those workspaces are not built.

How access is controlled

Access is enforced in the database rather than only in the application: a church’s records are readable only by people with a membership in that church. Passwords are never stored by ECHO in readable form and are handled by the authentication provider.
