Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 12, 2026
Laterli provides private messaging with scheduling. We collect only information needed to operate, secure, and improve the service. We do not sell personal information or use private message content for advertising.
Information we process
- Account information, including username, email address, optional display name and profile photo, and authentication records.
- Communication metadata needed for delivery, such as participants, timestamps, delivery state, scheduled time, timezone, recurrence, and whether a reply occurred.
- End-to-end encrypted message payloads. Laterli’s servers are not designed to read private message content.
- Device and push-token information used to deliver messages and generic new-message notifications.
- Your contacts, blocks, mutes, archived-chat state, and choices about discoverability, profile-photo visibility, and who may message you.
- Safety reports, security events, and service diagnostics. Reports do not automatically include private message content.
How we use information
We use this information to authenticate users, find or connect approved contacts, deliver and schedule messages, synchronize delivery state, apply your privacy choices, prevent abuse, respond to support requests, maintain security, and comply with law. We do not use private messages to create advertising profiles.
Scheduling and notifications
Scheduled messages are stored as encrypted payloads with timing and delivery metadata. “If No Reply” uses reply-state metadata to cancel an unnecessary follow-up. Personal reminders to “future you” are stored on your device. Push alerts are designed not to include the private message text. You can disable Laterli notifications in the app and manage system permission in your device settings.
Profile and contact controls
You can choose whether people can find your username, whether only your contacts can see your profile photo, and whether only contacts may send you messages. You can also remove contacts, mute conversations, archive chats, and block people. Some account information may remain visible where needed for an existing conversation or safety record.
Desktop access and phone pairing
Laterli Desktop is available at app.laterli.com. A new browser must be approved by your signed-in phone using a short-lived QR code and matching verification number. The phone encrypts the device identity for that browser before transfer; the server stores only the encrypted approval payload and removes it when pairing is consumed. The browser protects the paired identity at rest with a non-exportable local encryption key. You can review and disconnect linked browsers from Laterli Settings. Disconnecting a browser prevents further server access from that pairing; clearing browser data also removes its local identity. As with any linked device, anyone who can unlock your paired browser may be able to use your signed-in Laterli session.
Service providers and transfers
Laterli uses service providers including Supabase for backend infrastructure and authentication, Expo for app build, update, and notification infrastructure, and Apple for iOS distribution and optional Sign in with Apple. These providers process limited data under their own security and privacy commitments. Infrastructure may process information outside your country subject to applicable transfer safeguards.
Retention and deletion
We retain account and service data only while needed to provide Laterli, protect the service, or meet legal obligations. You can initiate account deletion from Settings or follow the account deletion instructions. Deletion cancels future scheduled sends and removes or anonymizes associated server data, subject to narrowly limited security, fraud-prevention, backup, and legal retention needs.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or objection, and may complain to your local data-protection authority. You can manage privacy, contacts, notifications, archived chats, linked browsers, and blocked users in the app. Contact privacy@laterli.com for privacy requests.
Children
Laterli is not directed to children under 13, or the higher minimum age required in their country. If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate permission, contact us so we can investigate and delete it.
Contact
The service is operated as Laterli. Privacy questions and requests can be sent to privacy@laterli.com. General support is available at support@laterli.com.
