Safety & trust

What privacy and safety settings does Linga Chat have?

Linga Chat's privacy and safety settings let you control what your profile shows and who can contact you, turn on Screenshot Shield, block and report people, verify your photo, and secure sign-in with two-factor authentication or a passkey.

Control what you share

Linga Chat puts the important privacy choices in one place. You decide what appears on your profile and who is allowed to contact you, so you set your comfort level before any conversation starts.

Protect your conversations

  • Screenshot Shield adds a layer of protection to private chats and photos.
  • Blocking instantly and silently cuts off contact with anyone.
  • Reporting flags bad behavior for the moderation team to review.

Protect your account

  • Two-factor authentication adds a second step to every login.
  • Passkeys let you sign in with biometrics instead of a password.
  • Photo verification earns a verified badge and keeps the community real.

Control your data

You can delete your account and personal data yourself at any time, in line with GDPR and KVKK, and the app's data-safety details are published in the App Store and Google Play. Together, these settings mean privacy on Linga Chat is not an afterthought — it is something you actively manage rather than hope for. Open Settings on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android or Windows to review and adjust them whenever you like, and pair them with good habits like keeping personal details private until you trust someone and staying inside the app for chats and calls. That combination of built-in tools and sensible habits is what keeps your experience genuinely private.
