Security and privacy

What stays local

• AudioPresTools processes every song on your computer. Nothing is uploaded.
• AccountsNone. Prest, Prest Server, and PresTools work without one.
• TelemetryNone. No analytics, tracking, or usage reporting.
• InternetOnly to download the app and, the first time each is used, the PresTools tools and models.
• BackupsPrest Server's backup files hold your songs and setlists, and stay where you save them.

The stage network

Stage screens reach Prest Server over the local network, the same way a digital mixer's tablet app reaches the desk. Run the show on a network your band controls, such as its own router or a phone's hotspot, rather than a venue's shared Wi-Fi.

Stage screens do not ask for a password yet, so every device on that network can follow and control the show. The network guide covers the setup.

Report a vulnerability

Report security issues in Prest, Prest Server, PresTools, or this website through the feedback form. Reports are stored as confidential issues that only the Prest team can read. Include an email address if you'd like a reply. The same route is published in security.txt.
