Policy
Public transparency, private mechanics
Map precision
Signal RVA favors detailed public map context. Sensitive operator mechanics, private notes, and credentials are never published.
Audio
Public audio playback is limited to official embeds or official listen links. Signal RVA does not publish captured cookies, private playback URLs, or unlicensed archives.
Private mechanics
Public pages show categories, freshness, and confidence. Collection endpoints, scraping mechanics, vendor keys, and worker recipes stay private.
AI usage
No AI provider is called in the public request path. Public pages use cached upstream briefs, deterministic formatting, and pre-generated assets.
