Your Choices & Control Over Your Data

🔸 Access & Updates – You can edit account details anytime.
🔸 Data Deletion – You may request account deletion by contacting us.

Chat Riot & User Privacy: No Recording of Conversations

Unlike social media platforms that store interactions, Chat Riot does not record or store video chat conversations. Our mission is to foster real, ephemeral human connections, not to mine user data.
