Welcome to Ephex Chat's Privacy Policy page.
1. Information We Collect
We collect limited information to help us understand and improve the performance of EphexChat:
- Usage Statistics: We collect anonymous usage metrics about how guests and room creators interact with the application (e.g. number of chats created, frequency of use).
- Room Content: Chat messages and images are stored only in the context of a unique chat room and are deleted immediately when the room is destroyed by its creator.
- Technical Information: We may collect device information, browser type, and IP addresses through third-party tools such as Firebase, Google Analytics, and Cloudflare.
2. No Accounts or Logins Required
Guests do not need to log in or create an account to use EphexChat. Room creators may access administrative tools, but this does not require personally identifiable information.
3. Data Retention
We do not retain any chat content after a room is destroyed. There is no default expiration period, and room creators control when to delete their rooms.
4. Use of Third-Party Services
We use trusted third-party services to operate and monitor the app, including:
- Google Firebase – for infrastructure and real-time functionality
- Google Analytics – to understand app usage trends
- Cloudflare – to enhance security and performance
These services may collect anonymized technical data as part of their operations.
5. No Advertising or Data Sharing
We do not show ads, sell, or share any user data with third parties for marketing purposes.
6. Data Security
We take reasonable precautions to protect your information. Data in transit is encrypted, and any data stored is only temporarily tied to active chat rooms.
7. Children's Privacy
EphexChat is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
