+  The existing notification copy (`notifications/render.rs`) is already built to
+  exclude private data: it masks the MAC to a 2-octet suffix in titles, omits IP
+  addresses entirely, and its tests assert that no full MAC or IP appears. That
+  same already-sanitized title/body is all that travels to the relay, so network
+  metadata never reaches project servers — privacy and reduced liability.
+- **No deep-link**: tapping a push simply opens the app; it does not carry an
+  identifier or navigate to a specific device. The in-app notification list is
+  the durable, on-LAN record the user consults for detail. This removes the only
