What does mibbit log?
We do not keep logs of server connections, or channels joined. We do track failed connection attempts anonymously in order to resolve any compatibility issues.Logging of PMs and channels is opt in. You can delete any PM or channel logs you wish at any time.
When you enter a channel, you may get some 'recent chat'. This is sent from fellow mibbit users in that channel. This feature is enabled by channel operators (opt in), and nothing is stored permanently.
