NGL: ask me anything

"Device data, such as your computer's or mobile device's operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, RAM and disk size, CPU usage, device type (e.g., phone, tablet), IP address, unique identifiers (including identifiers used for advertising purposes), language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., WiFi, LTE, 4G), and general location information such as city, state or geographic area."

NGL collects granular device information including RAM size, disk size, CPU usage, WiFi/network details, and advertising identifiers — far beyond what an anonymous messaging app needs for core functionality.

"Device data, such as your computer's or mobile device's operating system type and version... IP address, unique identifiers (including identifiers used for advertising purposes), language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., WiFi, LTE, 4G), and general location information such as city, state or geographic area."

NGL derives location information from IP addresses and network data, and may also reveal properties of message senders to app users based on their IP address.

"We and our service providers may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with our Services, our communications and other online services... unique identifiers (including identifiers used for advertising purposes)... Online activity data, such as pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, browsing history, navigation paths between pages or screens."

NGL collects advertising identifiers and tracks user interactions over time across their services and other online services, enabling cross-service profiling and interest-based advertising.

"Service providers. We may share your personal information with third party companies and individuals that provide services on our behalf or help us operate our Services (such as customer support, content moderation, hosting, analytics, email delivery, marketing, identity verification, fraud detection, payment processing, and database management). Advertising partners. We may share your personal information with third party advertising companies."

NGL shares personal information with a broad range of third-party service providers and advertising partners, covering nearly every aspect of their operations.

"We retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and processed, in accordance with our retention policies, and in accordance with applicable laws or until you withdraw your consent (where applicable)."

NGL provides no concrete retention timeline or deletion schedule, using vague language about retaining data "as long as is necessary" without specifying what that means in practice.

"We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by updating the date of this Privacy Policy and posting it on our Services. We may also provide notification of changes in another way that we believe is reasonably likely to reach you."

NGL can modify the privacy policy at any time unilaterally, with notification limited to updating the date on their website — continued use constitutes acceptance.
