Terms of Service

// Last updated: March 6, 2026

By using stdout.chat you agree to these terms. If you don't agree — don't use it.

---

// 1. What stdout.chat is

stdout.chat is an anonymous, ephemeral chat service that connects you with random strangers. Conversations are not stored. There are no accounts. There is no history.

// 2. Who can use it

You must be at least 17 years old to use stdout.chat. By using the service you confirm you meet this requirement.

// 3. What you must NOT do

The following are strictly prohibited:

• Sharing, soliciting, or distributing sexual content involving minors (CSAM)
• Harassment, threats, or hate speech targeting individuals or groups
• Spam, flooding, or automated abuse of the service
• Sharing personal information of others without consent (doxxing)
• Any activity that violates applicable local, national, or international law
• Attempting to hack, exploit, or disrupt the service or its infrastructure

// 4. Enforcement

We reserve the right to ban users (by IP or device) who violate these terms, without notice. Use the /report command to flag abusive users.

// 5. No guarantees

stdout.chat is provided "as is". We do not guarantee uptime, availability, or that the service will meet your expectations. We are not responsible for the content of conversations between users.

// 6. Anonymity disclaimer

While stdout.chat does not store conversations, your IP address is visible to the server for technical reasons. True anonymity requires additional measures (e.g. VPN) on your end. We are not responsible for any identification that occurs outside our control.

// 7. Changes

We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of the service means you accept the updated terms.

// 8. Contact
