About Me

I want to raise awareness about the harm that anonymous social networking can cause to individuals. The way in which their data can be compromised amd misused by site admins. Against online bullying and online gangs that can be formed.

I am highly concerned about the privacy policy and the way in which a concern was dealt with by the site admins and the owner turning a blind eye to my issue.

I asked them how they share the information and who they are and they refused and ignored my question. I was being harassed by another user that is 'cosy' with the site admins. Therefore the user deemed themself as above being disciplined for online bullying.

Here is the carefully constructed privacy policy:

Do we disclose any information to outside parties?

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. **This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.**We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or **other uses**

** what are the other uses I ask the site owner. They refused to answer.

**i approached the site owner and asked how my personal information is used by third parties and who they were and by what means do we have an assurity that they are trusted - the site owner again refused to comment.

Admins are generally rude to those that have constructive criticism about the site.

Overall if the site owner refuses to answer questions about how they use user date this is a huge red flag and would warn people against entering their information.

The site is anonymous therefore this is a great tool for the online predator since the age range is 13+ and the posts are rather explicit it is not a positive atmosphere overall as bullying is rife.
