Protecting Instant Messaging
Major IM service providers like AOL, Yahoo! And Microsoft say that they don't store your IM messages after they are transmitted. We think they are telling the truth, but even so, you should use encryption when IMing, if only because it is so easy to do (see our IM article[создать] to find out how).
Gmail's chat, on the other hand, logs all of your IMs by default as a feature and stores them online in your Google account for you to access later. If you use Google Talk or Gmail's chat service, we strongly recommend turning off this feature by going "Off the Record" or "OTR", as Google calls it — so that you aren't storing those transcripts with Google.
If you really need access to past transcripts, log them on your own computer using your IM software's settings (subject, of course, to the data retention policy[создать] you established after reading our section on protecting data stored on your computer). However, also keep in mind that many if not most of the people you chat with will be keeping their own logs on their own computer (or in their Google account if using Gchat, unless you've gone "Off the Record").
