Privacy
One real thought. Never a feed.
Last updated July 2026
Privacy at a glance
ConnectReal is one real thought a day, matched to one other person. There's no feed, no followers, no public profile to perform for.

What we collect
- Account details: email, username, and password (stored hashed).
- Your daily thoughts and the messages you exchange with a match.
- Basic usage and device data to keep the app working.
How matching works
Your thought is matched to another person's using an automated process, then handed to a private chat between the two of you. We do not show your thought to anyone besides your match, and it is never made public or searchable.
What we do not do
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not build a feed, follower graph, or public profile from your activity. ConnectReal is designed for one honest exchange a day, not for scrolling.
Your controls
- Delete a thought or conversation from within the app.
- Delete your account and everything tied to it from settings, at any time.
