**(201) What is certificate transparency?**
Please see [this article](https://certificate.transparency.dev/howctworks/) about what certificate transparency is.
Alternatively, see [this Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_Transparency).
When certificate transparency is enabled in the connection-settings tab page of the app,
the [Chrome Certificate Transparency Policy](https://github.com/GoogleChrome/CertificateTransparency/blob/master/ct_policy.md) will be applied.
FairEmail uses [this library](https://github.com/appmattus/certificatetransparency) to implement certificate transparency via a custom trust manager.
