Privacy Policy
Last updated: 8 November 2026
1. What we collect
Account data (email, username, profile and banner choices), messages and calls you send, friend and server relationships, reports, and technical data needed to run Sonar (such as authentication tokens and connection data). We collect only what is needed to provide the service.
2. Message security
Direct messages and media calls are secured on your device where available. Your private keys stay on your device and never leave your browser.
3. How we use data
We use your data to provide and secure Sonar, deliver messages and calls, show presence and notifications, prevent abuse, and respond to reports. We do not sell your personal data and do not use message content for advertising.
5. Sharing and disclosure
We share data only as needed to run Sonar (for example, our hosting and authentication provider), to comply with the law, or to protect safety. Content you send is visible to the people you send it to.
6. Retention and deletion
We keep account and message data while your account is active. You can ask for your account and data to be deleted through the app or by contacting us; deletion removes your profile and content subject to legal and safety retention.
7. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict processing. Contact us through the app to make a request.
8. Changes
We may update this policy. Material changes will be shown in the app, and the 'Last updated' date will change.
