Understanding Warrant Canaries

A warrant canary is a method by which a service provider aims to inform its users that it has not been served with a secret government subpoena or warrant. The canary is typically published regularly, and if it disappears or is not updated, it may indicate that such a request has been received.

This is not a legal guarantee, but rather a transparency measure. If we are served with a secret government order that prevents us from disclosing it, we would be unable to update this canary, which would serve as a warning to our users.
