Vuze FAQ

Vuze respects the privacy of its users. What does this mean?

* For non-Vuze content, we have no knowledge regarding what specific content you share, with whom you share it, or what you or your Friends may download. This information resides only on your computer and never touches our servers, or in some cases is protected with encryption.
* Instant message chats between users are encrypted in such a way that we are unable to know anything about the content of chats.
* Your User Name and Full (Display) Name are both public, meaning they are publicly accessible on the site in various places. For example, if you have published content, left a comment, sent a Friend invitation, or shared content, your User Name would be visible. Other users can also search for you using either your User Name or Display Name. You can change your Full Name but you cannot change your User Name after initial registration.
* Your email address is kept private and is not searchable by other users.
