How We Handle Your Data
Last updated: April 24, 2026
Scope
Resist Chat is a messaging app with link sharing, polls, and support tools. We use data only to run those features, keep the service secure, and respond to support requests.
What We Collect
- Handle, auth provider, and provider subject to identify your account.
- Email address from Apple/Google sign-in when provided by the identity provider.
- Message payloads to deliver chats.
- Links, link metadata, and poll content you create or share in the app.
- Delivery and read timestamps.
- Push notification token, app bundle, environment, and related timestamps for routing notifications.
- Block and report records, including report reason and optional details.
- Support requests and related diagnostic details you choose to send us when you contact support.
- Operational request logs needed for abuse prevention, diagnostics, and support.
- We use telemetry only for support, service diagnostics, and internal quality.
Retention
Message payloads are stored temporarily for delivery. Delivered messages are deleted after 30 days; undelivered messages after 90 days. Account data remains until you delete your account.
Device records, abuse-prevention logs, moderation reports, and diagnostics data are kept for operational and safety needs and may be retained longer when required for security, legal compliance, or active investigations.
Third-Party Processing
We use third-party providers to process support submissions and related telemetry only for support operations, diagnostics, and internal quality monitoring.
