Is it safe to connect Amber
Amber works through the official Telegram Business API — the same mechanism companies use to connect assistant bots. You enter no password and no login code, the bot gets only the permissions you tick while connecting, and you can remove it at any time in Telegram settings.
How this differs from logging into your account
Services that ask for your phone number and an SMS code log into your account as one more device and get full access to it. Amber does not work that way: it is connected as a chatbot in the “Telegram Business” section, and it can do only what Telegram allows there.
What the bot receives
- messages from the private chats you gave it access to while connecting;
- events about those messages being edited or deleted.
Groups, channels and secret chats are not available to the bot. It does not see messages that arrived before it was connected either.
What the bot stores and for how long
Copies of messages and attachments are kept for 3 days and then deleted automatically. They exist for one purpose: to show you the original if a message is deleted or edited.
Notifications go only to you, in your private chat with the bot; Amber writes nothing into your conversations. Your data is not sold or shared with third parties — see the privacy policy for details.
How to disconnect
Settings → Telegram Business → Chatbots → remove the bot. After that Amber stops receiving your messages.
How payment works
By card — on T-Bank’s secure page; we never receive your card number. With Stars — through Telegram’s built-in payment. The trial lasts 3 days or 15 bot notifications, whichever lasts longer, and needs no card on file.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to share a password or a login code?
No, and do not share them with anyone. Amber is connected without logging into your account.
Does the bot write on my behalf?
No. Amber only keeps copies and sends notifications to you. While connecting, Telegram shows which permissions the bot gets — you can leave the extra ones off.
What happens to the copies if I disconnect the bot?
The bot stops receiving new messages. Copies already saved are kept for 3 days from the moment they arrived and are then deleted.
Does the bot see my groups and channels?
No. Telegram passes only private one-to-one conversations to connected bots.
