Safety Center

• Anonymity Matters: Protect your real-world identity. Never share your full name, location, phone number, workplace, or other personal identifiers publicly in any chat.

• Think Before You Post: Once you initiate a connection, remember that your words impact others. Share thoughtfully and responsibly.

• Report Harmful Content: If you see harassment, threats, scams, or any unsafe behavior, report it immediately. Every report helps protect our community.

• Respect Others: Even in an anonymous space, kindness and empathy matter. Treat others with dignity.

• Stay Alert: If something feels suspicious, unsafe, or “off,” trust your instincts and disengage from the chat session immediately.

• Use a Unique Nickname: Avoid using real names, social media handles, or information that could identify you outside the platform.

• Secure Your Device: Ensure your smartphone is protected with a secure PIN, passcode, or biometric authentication (FaceID/TouchID) to keep your anonymous sessions private from anyone who might access your phone.

• Be Cautious with Links: Do not click suspicious links, external URLs, or download files shared by unknown users.

• Know Where to Get Help: YourSecret is built for peer support. However, in case of emotional distress, acute stress, or mental health emergencies, please contact local professional support services or crisis helplines immediately.

• We use industry-standard encryption protocols to fully safeguard your data in transit.

• We use advanced automated software (including The Brain engine) to programmatically detect patterns of abuse, hate speech, and toxic behavior before they spread.

• Our platform architecture minimizes data collection—we do not require your real name, photos, or public social media accounts to operate.

• We act swiftly on user reports, suspending or permanently banning violators of our Community Guidelines.
