Creating an account and using Morok requires no personal data whatsoever:
To deliver messages, the server temporarily handles a minimum of technical data:
Every message is encrypted on your device before it is sent (Ed25519/X25519, XChaCha20-Poly1305). Keys never leave your device in readable form. The server has no technical means of reading the content — not even on demand, because it holds no keys.
Instead of a login and password, Morok uses a 24-word secret phrase generated on your device. Only you hold it. We keep no copy and cannot restore access if you lose it — that is the price of real privacy.
Messages have a lifespan and are erased automatically on both sides, and on the server, once it expires. The server keeps no conversation history.
If you enable push notifications, delivery goes through Google (FCM) on Android or Apple (APNs) on iOS. Only a generic text is passed, never the message content — the messages themselves stay encrypted.
Contacts, local nicknames, your block list and settings are stored on your device only and are never sent to the server.
We do not sell, share or trade your data with advertisers, data brokers or any third party. A business model built on user data simply does not exist at Morok.
Morok is not intended for anyone under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data.
We may update this policy. Material changes will be reflected on this page along with a new update date.
