Is Funtoosh really anonymous?

Your answers are anonymous to the person who asked — they cannot see who replied unless you reveal yourself. Your account is not anonymous to us: you sign in with email or Google, and like any hosted service we keep operational logs. Funtoosh is not end-to-end encrypted.

Which languages are supported?

Funtoosh is fully translated into 8 languages today: English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Japanese, and Portuguese. More are on the way.

We use TLS for data in transit, encryption at rest with our database provider, strict content-security headers, XSS protection, secure cookies, and internal access limited to the staff who need it.

Terms of Service | Funtoosh

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Funtoosh website, progressive web app, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”), you agree to these Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and other policies referenced herein. If you do not agree, please do not use the Platform. Funtoosh is operated by Funtoosh Private Technologies Private Limited.

2. Definitions

Anonymous Messaging: Communication where sender and receiver are identified only by pseudonymous usernames, without phone number requirement.
Email OTP Login: Authentication via one-time password sent to email, valid 5 minutes, single-use.
User Wallet: Internal ledger for wallet recharge, paid messaging, tips, and premium features.
User Profiles: Pseudonymous profiles with display name, bio, and discovery preferences.
Paid Messaging: Optional monetized messages where creator sets price for DM access.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. Under India's DPDP Act 2023 everyone under 18 is a "Child", and Funtoosh does not knowingly create or operate accounts for children.
You must comply with local laws regarding anonymous communication and financial transactions.
One person may maintain one primary account; up to 2 additional personas are permitted for privacy, provided they are not used to evade blocks or bans.
Business accounts must provide accurate business information where wallet payouts are involved.

4. Accounts & Anonymity

4.1 Registration

Sign-up requires Full Name and Email Address. Email is verified via OTP. Full Name is used for display and wallet compliance where applicable; you may use a pseudonym consistent with community standards, but wallet payouts above regulatory thresholds require accurate information.

4.2 Anonymity Responsibility

Your username is your public identity; keep private information private if you wish to remain anonymous.
Do not attempt to de-anonymize others via IP grabbing, social engineering, or unauthorized data aggregation — results in immediate suspension per Account Suspension Policy.
Keep your email secure; OTP is single-use, time-limited, and rate-limited.

5. Acceptable Conduct

To maintain a safe environment for anonymous communication, you agree not to:

Harass, threaten, dox, stalk, or incite violence or self-harm
Share Child Sexual Abuse Material, non-consensual intimate imagery, or sexual content involving minors — zero tolerance, immediate ban and legal report
Distribute spam, scams, phishing, malware, crypto drainers, or engage in fraud
Impersonate Funtoosh staff, use official badges without authorization, or create deceptive profiles
Attempt to reverse engineer, scrape at scale, disrupt edge network, or bypass security monitoring
Buy, sell, or trade accounts or wallet balances

We employ content moderation for reported content, automated spam and abuse filters over content and metadata, and human review before account-level action. Funtoosh is not end-to-end encrypted.

6. Content & Ownership

6.1 Your Content

You retain ownership of messages, media, and profile content you create. By sending, you grant recipient a non-exclusive license to view. For discovery or promotional purposes, you grant Funtoosh a limited license to display your public profile (username, bio, avatar) where you opt-in to discovery.

6.2 Platform Content

Landing page, branding, UI, and advertisements are owned by Funtoosh. Do not copy or reproduce without permission per Intellectual Property Policy.

8. Advertisements

Funtoosh displays internal text-based promotional advertisements (e.g., Upgrade to Premium, Invite Friends, Creator Tools) via our own ad system, not Google Ads. Ads are clearly marked as Sponsored, non-intrusive, no popups, no autoplay. Future ads will be controlled via admin panel and comply with our Content Policy and Anti-Spam Policy.

9. Account Suspension & Termination

We may suspend, limit discovery, or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, Community Guidelines, Content Policy, Acceptable Use Policy, or Safety Policy. You may delete your account anytime via Settings → Danger Zone. Upon deletion, local keys are wiped immediately, public key queued for deletion within 7 days, wallet ledger retained in hashed form where required for fraud prevention up to 7 years.

See /account-suspension for detailed process and appeal mechanism.

10. Disclaimer

Platform is provided “as is” without warranties. We strive for 99.9% uptime but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service, especially during security updates. Anonymous messaging carries inherent risks; use blocking and reporting features for safety. Wallet is not a bank; Funtoosh is not a financial advisor.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Funtoosh liability is limited to amount you paid in last 12 months or ₹8,000 / $100 whichever higher. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from anonymous interactions, wallet transactions, or advertisements.

12. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by laws of India, with regard to conflict principles, and applicable international practices. Disputes first via [email protected], then via Grievance Redressal per IT Act, then binding arbitration in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India, unless required otherwise by local consumer protection laws. Details at /grievance-redressal.
