Well..  in the section entitled "Secret Chats / Q: How are secret chats different?" of the FAQ, it states:

"All secret chats in Telegram are device-specific and are not part of the Telegram cloud. This means you can only access messages in a secret chat from their device of origin. They are safe for as long as your device is safe in your pocket."

So..  "in your pocket" would exclude a DT, I would presume.  ?
