Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Mefesio is a decentralized text messaging platform built with privacy at its core. We do not collect, store, or analyze your messages or personal metadata. Our mission is simple: your conversations stay between you and your contacts—not even Mefesio can access them.

This Privacy Policy explains what limited data we handle (for account setup only), how we protect your privacy, and how you can control your experience.

2. Core Principles

No Central Server: Mefesio runs on a decentralized network—no central database to breach or monitor.
No Data Harvesting: We do not and will never sell, analyze, or monetize user data.
No Metadata Collection: We do not log message timestamps, IP addresses, device IDs, or user behaviour.

3. What We Collect

We only collect the minimum information required to create and manage your account:

Email address (for login and account recovery)
First Name & Last Name (optional display name)
Phone Number (optional, for contact sync with consent)

> What We Do NOT Collect:

Message content
Timestamps or device logs

User behavior or interactions
Contact lists (unless permission is explicitly granted)
Location or GPS data
Data for advertising or profiling

This limited data is never shared with third parties and is used only for secure account management.

4. Encryption & Security

All messages are end-to-end encrypted—only the sender and recipient can read them.
We do not store or access your messages.
Messages are delivered over a decentralized network and stored only on your device.

5. Third-Party Integrations

Mefesio does not use:

Ad networks
Analytics services
External APIs that collect data

Your usage remains private and local to your device and approved contacts.

6. App Permissions

Mefesio may request optional permissions (like storage or camera access for QR code scanning). You are always in full control, and the app works securely with minimal permissions.

7. Children’s Privacy

We comply with child privacy laws, including:

COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act – U.S.)
GDPR-K (General Data Protection Regulation for Kids – EU)

Child Safety Features:
