+        <p>
+            cobalt lets you save anything from your favorite websites: video, audio, photos or gifs — cobalt can do it all!
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            no ads, trackers, or paywalls, no nonsense. just a convenient web app that works everywhere.
+        </p>

+        <h3>leading privacy</h3>
+        <p>
+            all requests to backend are anonymous and all tunnels are encrypted.
+            we have a strict zero log policy and don't track <i>anything at all</i>.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            to avoid caching or storing downloaded files, cobalt processes them on-fly, sending processed pieces directly to client.
+            this technology is used when your request needs additional processing, such as when source service stores video & audio in separate files.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            for even higher level of protection, you can <a href="/settings/privacy#tunnel">ask cobalt to always tunnel everything</a>.
+            when enabled, cobalt will proxy everything through itself. no one will know what you download, even your network provider/admin.
+            all they'll see is that you're using cobalt.

+        <h3>blazing speed</h3>
+        <p>
+            since we don't rely on any existing downloaders and develop our own from ground up,
+            cobalt is extremely efficient and a processing server can run on basically any hardware.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            main processing instances are hosted on several dedicated servers in several countries,
+            to reduce latency and distribute the traffic.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            we constantly improve our infrastructure along with our long-standing partner,
+            <OuterLink href="{partners.royalehosting}">royalehosting.net</OuterLink>!
+            you're in good hands, and will get what you need within seconds.

+        <h3>open community</h3>
+        <p>
+            we believe that the future of the internet is open,
+            which is why cobalt's backend is open source, and the web app is source-available.
+            you can
+            <OuterLink href="{contacts.github}">check & contribute to both</OuterLink>
+            at any time, we welcome all contributions and suggestions!
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            cobalt is used by countless artists, educators, and content creators to do what they love.
+            we're always on the line with our community and work together to create even more useful tools for them.
+            feel free to <a href="/about/community">join the conversation</a>, too!

+        <h3>on-device processing</h3>
+        <p>
+            new features, such as <a href="/remux">remuxing</a>, work on-device.
+            on-device processing is efficient and never sends anything over the internet.
+            it perfectly aligns with our future goal of moving as much processing as possible to client.
