Do you store my chat messages?

No. Conversations are not retained after they end. There is no history feature and no archive to request, because there is nothing in it.

Do you log IP addresses?

Yes, in standard server logs, as essentially every website does. It is what makes blocking abusive users possible. It is not linked to a name or an email because we do not have either.

Not by other users — they see an age band, a gender and a username you can randomise. We are a consumer chat site, not an anonymity network, so if your threat model includes a government you should be using Tor rather than us.

Why do you ask for age and gender if it is anonymous?

Age because an 18+ service has to draw the line somewhere. Gender because it is what the person you match with sees, and matching with no information at all turns out to be worse for everyone. Neither identifies you.

Anonymous chat

No email. No phone number. No profile to fill in and nothing left behind when you close the tab. Anonymity here is structural, not a setting you have to find.

Start chatting Create an account no email, no download — two taps and you are in

Nothing to sign up with. We do not ask for an email, so we cannot leak one.
No chat history. Conversations are not kept after they end.
Single-view photos. Opened once, then deleted from our servers.
No profile. There is nothing for anyone to find, follow, or screenshot later.

What "anonymous" should actually mean

Most sites calling themselves anonymous mean "we will not display your real name". You still hand over an email, still get a persistent profile, still leave a trail on a server somewhere that can be subpoenaed, sold, or breached.

We mean something narrower and more useful: we do not collect the information in the first place. There is no email field. There is no phone verification. The username is randomly generated and you can reroll it. A conversation exists while you are in it and then does not exist. The strongest privacy guarantee any service can offer is not encryption — it is not having the data.

Why anonymity changes how people talk

It makes people more honest and worse at endings. We found both in the data.

The finding: across 9,854 anonymous conversations, 86.7% simply stopped. Only 13.3% ended with anything resembling a goodbye. The median conversation ran 32 messages and then one person was just gone.

That is the anonymous bargain in one statistic. You get to say the true thing to somebody who will never be able to find you — and they get to vanish mid-sentence with no explanation owed. Both halves come from the same property. You cannot have the candour without the disappearing.

Knowing this in advance takes most of the sting out of it. Being left is not rejection here, it is the default ending. Nearly nine times out of ten, the conversation that just stopped would have stopped whoever you were.

What we can and cannot see

Honesty is worth more than a marketing claim, so plainly: we hold an anonymous account identifier so the app knows you are you between screens, and standard server logs including an IP address, which is how abuse gets blocked and how any site on the internet works. We do not hold your name, your email, your number, or your conversations.

We are also not a tool for evading law enforcement, and you should not treat any consumer chat site as one. If you need that level of protection, you need Tor and a threat model, not a chat app. What we offer is meaningful privacy from other users, from advertisers, and from your own future search history.

Anonymous does not mean unmoderated

The two get confused constantly, and the confusion is what killed Omegle. Anonymity is about what we collect. Moderation is about what we allow. You can have both, and a platform that gives up on the second in the name of the first ends up serving nobody except the people everyone else is trying to get away from.

So: automated moderation on every conversation, one-tap block and report, a hard 18+ line, and crisis detection that responds in twelve languages when somebody is in real trouble. None of that requires knowing who you are.
