Privacy Policy

Camcastar is built on one principle: your camera and your recordings belong to you, not us. This page explains exactly what happens to your data when you use camcastar.com.

Your Video Never Touches Our Server

When you connect your phone to your laptop using Camcastar, the video stream travels directly between your two devices using WebRTC peer-to-peer technology. It does not pass through the Camcastar server at any point. We cannot see it, we do not store it, and we have no access to it.

The same applies to your recordings. When you record a video, it is captured and stored locally on your phone. The file transfer to your laptop also happens directly over your local Wi-Fi connection, not through any server. No copy of your recording is ever sent to or stored by Camcastar.

What the Server Actually Does

The Camcastar server handles only the WebRTC signaling step. This is a small exchange of connection setup messages (a few hundred bytes each) that helps your phone and laptop find each other on your network. These messages contain no video, no audio, and no personal data. Once the connection is established, the server is completely out of the picture.

Session identifiers are held temporarily in server memory and deleted automatically when the session ends or after one hour. Nothing is written to a database or stored permanently.

What We Do Not Collect

• Your camera feed or live video
• Your recorded video files
• Your microphone audio
• Your name, email address, or any account information
• Your precise location
