This code phrase is hashed using sha256 and sent to the relay which maps that key to that connection. When the relay finds a matching key for both the receiver and the sender (i.e. they both have the same code phrase), then the sender transmits the encrypted metadata to the receiver through the relay. Then the receiver decrypts and reviews the metadata (file name, size), and chooses whether to consent to the transfer. -After the receiver consents to the transfer, the sender transmits encrypted data through the relay. The relay setups up [Go channels](https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html?h=chan#channels) for each connection which pipes all the data incoming from that sender's connection out to the receiver's connection. After the transmission the channels are destroyed and all the connection and meta data information is wiped from the relay server. +After the receiver consents to the transfer, the sender transmits encrypted data through the relay.
