Privacy on Chatkode

When you Match on Chatkode, you enter a 1:1 match thread. Your chats use 1:1 match messaging, account controls, and security practices built for everyday privacy. Here is what that means in everyday language — without overclaiming.

Protection for matched chats

Chatkode is a random chat app first: pick a temporary name and gender, Match or Skip, and talk in a one-to-one random browser thread. Matched chats are 1:1 match threads — with secure delivery, account privacy tools, and tools like Block and Report.

That pairs with no phone number, browser-first access, and safety tools like Block and Report. You can claim a temporary account within 24 hours if you want to keep chats and friends later.

What protection does not do

It does not stop someone who can see your unlocked screen from reading a message.
It does not stop a recipient from copying, forwarding, or photographing what they receive.
It does not make you anonymous if you choose a recognizable name or later claim with email or Google.
It is not a claim of third-party audit or certification — we explain practices clearly instead of inventing badges.

For shared devices, combine privacy tools with app lock and hidden chats.

Temp identity vs claimed account

Random chat starts with a temporary name — no phone number. If you claim within 24 hours, you keep the same user identity for chats that matter. Other people still see your chat name, not your phone number. Learn more on username identity.
