At Anonymous Messages, we take your privacy seriously. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information while ensuring a secure, anonymous messaging experience.
1. Information We Collect
We aim to collect as little personal data as possible. Anonymous Messages provides an anonymous platform for sending and receiving messages without requiring personal information. However, certain non-personal data may be collected:
- IP Address: We may process your IP address for communication purposes but do not log or retain this data after your session.
- Cookies: Our site uses cookies for functional purposes (e.g., to manage sessions) and for analytics to improve user experience.
We do not collect personal identifiers, names, or email addresses unless provided by the user through communication with us.
2. How We Use Your Information
The limited data we collect is used to ensure a smooth experience and improve our services. Specifically:
- Communication: We process your IP address to enable communication between your browser and our servers.
- Analytics: We may use anonymized data to analyze site traffic and usage trends. This helps us improve our platform and user experience.
- Cookies: Cookies are used for site functionality (session management) and analytics (to better understand user interaction).
We do not share or sell any personal data to third parties.
3. Data Encryption and Security
At Anonymous Messages, user privacy and message security are paramount:
- Anonymous Messaging: The messages sent via our platform are encrypted and cannot be read by us or anyone else without the unique message link.
- Self-Destruction: Messages are permanently deleted after being viewed or after a set expiration period (e.g., 30 days of inactivity).
- No Message Tracking: We do not track or store the content of the messages after they are deleted or read.
4. Third-Party Services
We use Google Analytics to better understand how our website is used. Google Analytics collects anonymized data and cannot be used to identify individual users.
For more information about how Google collects and processes your data, please review their Privacy Policy.
5. Use of Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device to enhance your experience. Anonymous Messages uses the following types of cookies:
- Functional Cookies: These are essential to operate the platform, manage sessions, and enable core functionality.
- Analytics Cookies: We use these to understand how users interact with our website and to improve its performance.
You can disable cookies through your browser settings, but this may impact the website’s functionality.
6. Data Retention
Messages are stored securely on our servers until they are read or reach their expiration date. Once deleted, they are unrecoverable. Non-personal data such as analytics may be stored indefinitely for the purpose of improving the service.
7. User Rights
As a user, you have the right to:
- Access: Request information about the data we collect.
- Erasure: Request that we delete any personal information we may have collected.
- Restriction: Restrict how your data is processed, where applicable.
Please contact us at [[email protected]] for any requests regarding your data.
8. Children’s Privacy
Our services are not intended for individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have collected data from a minor without parental consent, we will take immediate steps to delete the information. More in Termas and Condition page.
