Common questions about security and privacy
Yes. The hosted version is strictly read-only — it cannot send, edit, or delete any messages. Your account is used the same way as logging into Telegram Web or Desktop. You can disconnect at any time from Telegram's "Devices" settings.
We don't store your messages. Each tool call fetches data directly from Telegram's API and returns it to the AI assistant. Your session key is encrypted in our database and deleted when you disconnect.
It uses MTProto — the same protocol Telegram's official apps use. You authenticate via QR code, just like linking a new device. From Telegram's perspective, it's another logged-in client.
Your Telegram session is immediately terminated (logged out) and the session key is deleted from our server. No residual access remains.
Yes. Add it as an app in ChatGPT Settings → Apps (Developer Mode). Use the URL https://mcp-telegram.com/mcp with OAuth authentication. Works on Plus, Pro, Team, and Enterprise plans.
The server is fully open-source (MIT license) at github.com/mcp-telegram/mcp-telegram-cloud. You can self-host it for free with full read+write access.
