Privacy First: How We Protect Your Messages

In an age where data breaches and privacy violations are increasingly common, we take your privacy seriously at TeaLeaks. When you send or receive anonymous messages, you need to trust that they will remain truly private. Here's how we protect your messages and ensure your anonymity.

Our Privacy Philosophy

At TeaLeaks, privacy isn't an afterthought – it's the foundation of everything we do. We believe that:

  • Privacy is a right – Everyone deserves the ability to communicate anonymously
  • Trust is earned – We must prove our commitment to privacy through action
  • Security is ongoing – Privacy protection requires constant vigilance and improvement
  • Transparency matters – You should know how your data is protected

Core Security Measures

End-to-End Encryption

All messages sent through TeaLeaks are encrypted in transit and at rest. This means that even if someone were to intercept the data, they wouldn't be able to read your messages.

No IP Logging

We don't store sender IP addresses in a way that could be used to identify individual users. While we need some technical information to operate the service, we minimize data collection and anonymize what we must keep.

Secure Database

Our databases are protected with industry-standard security measures including encryption, access controls, and regular security audits. Message content is stored securely and can only be accessed by authorized recipients.

HTTPS Only

TeaLeaks forces HTTPS connections for all users. This ensures that all data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted and protected from interception.

Secure Authentication

User accounts are protected with secure password hashing and optional two-factor authentication. We implement rate limiting and brute force protection to prevent unauthorized access.

How Anonymity Works

Sender Anonymity

When someone sends you an anonymous message through TeaLeaks:

  • Their identity is never revealed to you
  • Their IP address is not logged in a traceable way
  • No account is required to send messages
  • The message appears in your private dashboard without sender information

Recipient Privacy

For message recipients:

  • Only you can see messages sent to your link
  • Your message dashboard is private and password-protected
  • Messages are never shared publicly without your consent
  • You have full control over message management and deletion

Advanced Privacy Features

Data Retention Policies

We believe in data minimization – we only keep data as long as necessary:

  • Messages – Stored until you delete them or close your account
  • Account Data – Kept only while your account is active
  • Technical Logs – Retained for a limited time for security purposes
  • Deleted Data – Permanently removed from our systems

Third-Party Privacy

We Don't Sell Your Data

TeaLeaks never sells your personal data or message content to third parties. Our business model is based on premium subscriptions, not data mining.

Limited Third-Party Services

We use a minimal set of third-party services:

  • Content Delivery – For fast, reliable service delivery

All third-party services are carefully vetted for security and privacy compliance.
