Understanding Telegram's Messaging Policy
Telegram is known for its end-to-end encryption feature, which ensures that only the sender and receiver can read the messages. However, the question remains: does Telegram store messages?
According to Telegram's FAQ, messages are stored on Telegram's servers, but they are encrypted and can only be accessed with the correct decryption key. This means that Telegram itself cannot read the messages, but it can store them for a certain period.
- Messages are stored on Telegram's servers for 6 months or more
- Telegram uses a combination of cloud and local storage
- End-to-end encryption ensures message security
