Stay anonymous
Do not share phone numbers, legal names, home address, workplace, documents, or exact location.
Free by default
Core discovery, likes, and chat are meant to stay free, without upgrade nags.
Simple costs
Modest ads can help cover running costs, with a cheap ad-free option for people who want it.
One-to-one only
No group chat, no broadcast posts, no forwarding, and no sending the same message to multiple people.
Mutual likes
Private chat opens only when both people choose each other.
Stop anytime
Either person can end a chat, block, or report without explanation.
Light profiles
Use age range, broad area, languages, interests, and a short intro so people can choose a conversation without knowing your identity.
Adults first
One-to-one local matching is for adults at launch. Youth support needs a separate design with stronger moderation and no adult-minor matching.
Area only
Profiles show a broad area first, not exact location by default.
No photos at launch
Photo sharing stays off until the safety, consent, and age systems are stronger.
Public meetups
If you meet, first meet in a busy public place like a cafe, bar, event, or shopping area.
Support first
LGBTQIA+ spaces are for support, friendship, identity questions, travel safety, health signposting, and discrimination help.
Adult areas closed
Dating and adult chat are not open until proper age assurance and stronger safety controls exist.
Hard limits
No grooming, sexual content involving minors, threats, doxxing, fraud, illegal trading, or planning harm.
Privacy note
Electronic communication can theoretically be traced through IP, location, device, provider, or recipient records. Anonachat does not ask for legal ID, phone, or exact location.
