Chitchat Basics

Is Chitchat safe?

Yes, and we work hard to keep it that way.

Chitchat is built to help people meet, talk, and connect in a safe environment. We use a mix of smart moderation tools, user reports, and clear Community Guidelines to help keep conversations respectful across both text and video chat.

Our Community Guidelines set the tone for what is and is not allowed on Chitchat. They cover things like nudity, sexual behavior, harassment, hate speech, threats, scams, spam, and sharing private information. Users who break these rules may be warned, limited, suspended, or banned.

We also give you safety tools you can use anytime. If someone makes you uncomfortable, you can skip the chat, block them, or report them. Click here to find out how to report a user.

In video chat, Chitchat can detect inappropriate activity on your match's camera and blur the video straight away. You can then report the user, skip the chat, or unblur if you think it was a mistake. See Why is my match's video blurred?

Images and videos from matches are also blurred by default, and you can change that anytime in Settings → Privacy. See Why are images and videos blurred?

No platform for meeting people online can be completely risk-free, so we always recommend protecting your personal information and trusting your instincts. If a conversation feels wrong, leave it and report the user.

Chitchat is made for fun, spontaneous conversations — but safety always comes first.
