Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 2025
1. Anonymous by Default
randomcaht.online is built from the ground up to minimize personal data collection. We do not require, collect, or store your real name, email address, password, phone number, physical address, or social media profiles.
2. Ephemeral Chat Messages
Chat messages exchanged between participants are transmitted in real-time over encrypted WebSockets and are ephemeral. We do not maintain a permanent database of chat history. Once a conversation ends or both participants disconnect, message data is cleared from memory.
3. Temporary Operational Data
To operate matchmaking and protect users against spam and abuse, we process minimal temporary data:
- Temporary Session Identifiers: Random, non-sequential cryptographic UUIDs generated per browser visit.
- Self-Declared Matching Attributes: Temporary nickname, self-declared gender, and matching preference.
- Abuse Prevention & Rate Limits: Temporary counters to limit message flooding, connection abuse, and bot activity.
4. Abuse Reports and Moderation
When a user submits an abuse report (e.g. for harassment or spam), the report reason, brief optional details, timestamps, and associated anonymous session IDs are temporarily recorded to enforce bans and protect the community.
5. Cookies and Local Storage
We do not use tracking or advertising cookies. We only use browser local storage / session storage to remember your chosen theme (Light, Dark, or System) and temporary session ID during your active visit.
