Your privacy is our priority. Learn how we protect and handle your information.
Information We Collect
When you use Talk With Strangers, we collect only the information necessary to provide our services. This includes your email address (if you register), chat preferences, and technical data such as IP address and device information for security purposes.
How We Use Your Data
Your data helps us improve our matching algorithm, maintain platform security, and enhance user experience. We never sell your personal information to third parties. We may use aggregated, anonymized data for research and analytics.
Chat Content and Anonymity
Chat conversations are not stored permanently. We may temporarily retain messages for moderation purposes to ensure community safety, but this data is automatically deleted after a short period. Your identity remains anonymous to other users unless you choose to share personal details yourself.
Cookies and Tracking
We use essential cookies to maintain your session and preferences. Analytical cookies help us understand how users interact with the site so we can improve it. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption, secure servers, and regular security audits. While no system is completely immune to breaches, we take every reasonable step to protect your information.

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. You can request a copy of the information we hold about you or ask for your account to be removed entirely by contacting our support team.
Children's Privacy
Our service is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we discover such collection, we will delete the information promptly.
Policy Changes
