Your RelayLink sign-in and access history

Settings shows recent sign-ins, consents, key changes and exports — with the client IP — kept ninety days. The delivery trail never holds an address. That split is the design.

Settings is not only your display name and the way out. Under it is a list of what happened to the account: codes sent, sign-ins that worked, codes that did not, lockouts, apps connected or declined or disconnected, keys created or revoked, an export, a close.

Each row can carry when, which surface, which client, and from which address.

Why the IP is there

Investigation is the point of a security ledger. Showing it only to an operator would mean you could not see a sign-in from a place you have never been. The first person who should notice that is you.

An administrator looking at the same account sees the same list. The assistant-facing admin tools omit the IP — that conversation is held by a third party.

Two tables, on purpose

Security events hold sign-in attempts, consents, connections, key changes, closure, export. Client IP. Ninety days, then they age out on write, so an account that never comes back still forgets.

The delivery trail holds what happened to a package. No address of any kind. No free-text column a sender chose. The privacy policy describes both halves.

A key name can contain an @, which is why audit detail is built so none of its structure comes from the person being audited. The export asserts it contains no "ApiKey" substring; enum names that would have said that were named for the key, not the credential type.

What is not written

An address with no account. The sign-in form pads both the request and the verify so you cannot time whether someone is registered. A row on the unknown path would undo that.

Reads are not audited — opening your inbox, searching, reading a package. The ledger stays scannable for the handful of things that changed something. Export is the exception, recorded for what it produces.

Nothing here is a session list you can remote-wipe. Disconnect an app, revoke a key, sign out of this browser. Those are the verbs. The history is how you notice you need them.

If a row looks wrong, change the keys and disconnect the apps first. Then ask if you want a person to look.

Frequently asked questions

Why can I see an IP on my own settings page?
A sign-in you do not recognise is yours to notice first. A ledger only an operator can read protects the operator. The same rows are what an administrator sees on the account, and no more.
Does the package history include addresses?
No. The delivery trail records no address of any kind. Sign-in attempts, consents and key changes live in a different table, with a client IP, for ninety days. The privacy policy says so in both directions.
If someone types my address into sign-in, is that on my history?
Only if the address has an account. An unknown or implausible address leaves no row — a store of who has tried to sign in would also be a way to ask whether an address is registered.
