2. THE MOST SECURE MESSAGING APP
All around the world, users turn to
Viber to have open and authentic
conversations with their friends,
family and colleagues. With Viber
you can rest assured, knowing
that your personal chats are
always protected and private and
that all your conversations are
your own. Our mission is to
protect that privacy so you never
have to think twice about what
you can or cant share when
youre using Viber.
3. WE DONT READ OR LISTEN TO ANY OF YOUR
CHATS AND CALLS
Unlike other messaging apps, Viber
cant read your personal chats (including
one-on-one chats and group chats) or
listen in on your audio or video calls. We
cant access your messages since we
use end-to-end encryption by default.
You dont have to go out of your way to
turn it on. This means that your private
and group communications are
completely encrypted so that only you
and the people youre talking to can
read or hear them.
4. WE CANT AND DONT SELL YOUR CONTENT
When your chats are protected by end-to-end
encryption, no one can access them. Perhaps most
importantly, Viber doesnt have access to themwhich
means nothing you share can be used to target you with
ads later. Other messaging apps will not fully encrypt
your chats automatically for you unless you actively turn
on the encryption mode. This means that some of these
apps can access, read and sell your private
conversations to other 3rd parties or advertisers. Vibers
policy guarantees that we cant sell your private
information since we chose to have no access to your
private chats and calls in the first place. So, you can be
sure you wont mysteriously see ads related to
something you were just talking about with a friend on
Viber.
5. MORE THAN ENCRYPTION
Not only are your communications protected by
end-to-end encryption by default, nothing you
share is ever stored on Vibers servers once
delivered. In fact, the messages you send make
their way from your device to the recipients as an
encrypted code. If the recipients phone is off or
they dont have an internet connection, for
example, your message will wait patiently on
Vibers servers for a limited timestill safe and
encrypteduntil their device is prepared to receive
and decrypt it.
6. 100% privacy you can trust::
Thanks to end-to-end encryption, any type of
information you share will always remain between
yourself and the person youre talking to. This means
you never have to think twice about what you can or
cant share when youre using Viber.
7. IN-TRANSIT ENCRYPTION
For extra protection, everything Viber
sends from your device to the server
on its way to your recipients device
is encrypted as it travels across the
internet.
8. END-TO-END ENCRYPTION
BY DEFAULT
Messages you send make their way from
your device to the recipients in the form
of an encrypted code that only their
device can translate to plain text using an
encryption key. Encryption keys exist only
on user devices and nowhere else. So,
no one not even Viber can read
your messages.
9. TRUST YOUR CONTACTS
Verify the identity of the person youre
communicating with. In your chat info screen,
authenticate and confirm that the person youre
chatting with is who they say they are. This
provides you with an extra level of security
protection if anything changes with your contact.
10. An added sense of privacy::
While Vibers end-to-end encryption by default
gives users peace of mind, sometimes we need even
more privacy. These privacy features enable users to
share extra-sensitive information.
11. HIDDEN CHATS
Planning a surprise party and dont want
anyone to accidentally see your
conversation? Hide conversations from
your main chat list and access them
whenever you need to with a PIN.
12. SELF-DESTRUCTING CHATS
Secret Chats lets you set a self-destruct timer
for every message in your conversation so that
after your message is read, it is automatically
deleted from the Viber chat.
13. STAY UNDER THE RADAR
Control when others can see your online
status and the delivery status of the
messages they send you.
