+Client Config
+=============
+
+.. _module:account_data:
+
+Clients can store custom config data for their account on their homeserver.
+This account data will be synced between different devices and can persist
+across installations on a particular device. Users may only view the account
+data for their own account
+
+The account_data may be either global or scoped to a particular rooms.
+
+Events
+------
+
+The client recieves the account data as events in the ``account_data`` sections
+of a v2 /sync.
+
+These events can also be received in a v1 /events response or in the
+``account_data`` section of a room in v1 /initialSync. ``m.tag``
+events appearing in v1 /events will have a ``room_id`` with the room
+the tags are for.
