About ChittyChattyChat
Your Privacy-First Chat Platform
ChittyChattyChat is an anonymous, encrypted 1-on-1 chat service designed with privacy and security as core principles. In an era where digital privacy is increasingly important, we provide a safe space for private conversations without compromising your identity or data.
Our Mission
We believe that everyone deserves the right to private, anonymous communication. Whether you need to discuss sensitive topics, seek support, or simply want a conversation without leaving a digital footprint, ChittyChattyChat provides a secure platform for your needs.
Our mission is to make encrypted, anonymous communication accessible to everyone while maintaining the highest standards of security and user experience.
What Makes Us Different
1. True Anonymity
No registration required. No email addresses. No phone numbers. Just anonymous conversations between two people. We don't track who you are or who you're talking to.
2. Military-Grade Encryption
Every message is encrypted using AES-256-GCM encryption before it leaves your device. Even we can't read your messages. Your conversations are truly private.
3. Automatic Deletion
All chat rooms automatically expire after 24 hours. Messages are permanently deleted from our servers, leaving no trace of your conversation.
4. Device-Locked Security
Each chat room is locked to the first two devices that join. This prevents unauthorized third parties from accessing your conversation, even if they guess your room code.
5. No Data Mining
We don't collect, analyze, or sell your data. Your conversations are yours alone. We don't use AI to scan your messages or profile your behavior.
6. Simple and Fast
No complicated setup. Create a room, share the code, and start chatting. Our streamlined interface focuses on what matters: your conversation.
How It Works
Step 1: Create a Room
Click "Create Room" to generate a unique 4-character room code. This happens instantly without any registration.
Step 2: Share the Code
Share your room code with one other person through any channel you prefer (text, email, voice call, etc.).
Step 3: Chat Privately
Once both participants join, the room is locked. Start chatting with end-to-end encryption protecting every message.
Step 4: Automatic Cleanup
After 24 hours, the room and all messages are automatically deleted. Or manually destroy the room anytime.
Use Cases
Confidential Discussions
Discuss sensitive business matters, personal issues, or confidential information without worrying about data breaches or surveillance.

Seek help or advice on sensitive topics without revealing your identity. Perfect for mental health discussions, relationship advice, or any situation where anonymity is important.
Secure Coordination

Temporary Conversations
Have conversations that you don't want permanently stored anywhere. Ideal for one-time discussions or temporary collaborations.
Private File Sharing
Share files securely between two parties without uploading to cloud services or leaving digital trails.
Our Security Features
End-to-End Encryption (AES-256-GCM)
All messages are encrypted on your device before transmission. Even our servers cannot decrypt your conversations. We use the same encryption standard trusted by governments and militaries worldwide.
Perfect Forward Secrecy
Each chat room has unique encryption keys that are never reused. If a key is somehow compromised, it cannot be used to decrypt other conversations.
HTTPS/TLS Transport Security
All communications between your browser and our servers use HTTPS with TLS 1.2+ encryption, protecting data in transit from interception.
No Permanent Storage
Messages are stored encrypted for a maximum of 24 hours, then permanently deleted. We don't maintain backups or archives of your conversations.
Device Fingerprinting
Rooms are bound to specific device fingerprints, preventing unauthorized access even if someone obtains your room code.
Technical Architecture
ChittyChattyChat is built on modern web technologies designed for security and reliability:
- Real-Time Communication: WebSocket technology powered by Socket.IO for instant message delivery
- Client-Side Encryption: CryptoJS library for browser-based encryption
- Secure Backend: Flask application with PostgreSQL database
- Redis Session Management: Fast, in-memory session handling
- Encrypted Object Storage: MinIO for secure file attachments
- Nginx Reverse Proxy: Production-grade SSL/TLS termination
Limitations and Transparency
We believe in being transparent about our service's limitations:
- Not Completely Anonymous: While we don't collect personal information, your IP address is visible to our servers (required for security and abuse prevention)
- Device Dependency: If you close your browser or clear cookies, you may lose access to your room
- Two-Person Limit: Rooms are strictly limited to 2 participants - we cannot support group chats
- 24-Hour Limit: Rooms cannot be extended beyond 24 hours - this is a core security feature
- No Account Recovery: Since we don't have accounts, we cannot help you recover lost room codes or access
Open Source and Auditing
We welcome security researchers and privacy advocates to examine our implementation. Transparency builds trust, and we're committed to maintaining the highest security standards.
