Security / practical safeguards

Specific protections, honest limits.

Security is a continuing responsibility. No website can promise perfect protection.

Pre-launch working policyLast updated September 5, 2026Operator: The Upper Room Ventures Incorporated

Current foundation

  • Authenticated accounts and persistent sessions through the approved authentication service.
  • Separate contributor and moderator roles.
  • Database row-level security as the authorization boundary.
  • Private drafts and owner-scoped story access.
  • Immutable versions with permission records tied to the exact version.
  • Human moderation, followed by separate approval and release decisions.
  • Contributor withdrawal and visible activity history.
  • Private storage is required before images or audio can be accepted.

What these safeguards do not promise

They do not prevent every attack, guarantee anonymity or eliminate every human error. A public story can be copied by a reader. An alias can be linked to someone by details in the story. Security testing reduces risk but does not remove it.

Report a vulnerability

A verified security-reporting address and response process are not yet public. Do not send sensitive vulnerability details through a story submission or an invented contact form.
