XWave
Security & Safety

Your safety is the whole point

XWave is built to protect the people who use it. Here's how we approach security, the controls you have, and how to report an issue.

How we protect you

A layered approach to keeping XWave and your data safe.

Security by design

Security is considered at every layer of XWave, from the app to the infrastructure — not bolted on afterwards.

Minimal data

The safest data is the data we never collect. We gather as little as possible and hold it for as short a time as we can.

You stay in control

Your data belongs to you. You can export it, delete it, or take it elsewhere at any time.

Protected in transit

Your messages and calls are protected while they travel between your device and our servers.

Continuously tested

We test, review, and harden XWave on an ongoing basis, and work with the security community to stay ahead of threats.

Responsible disclosure

We welcome reports from security researchers and aim to respond quickly and act responsibly.

Staying safe on XWave

A few simple habits go a long way toward keeping your account and conversations secure.

Block and report

You can block anyone at any time and report accounts or content that break our rules.

Secure your device

Keep your device locked, up to date, and protected with a passcode or biometrics — it's your first line of defense.

Stay alert to scams

Be cautious with unexpected requests for money or personal details, even from people you know.

Found a security issue?

We take security reports seriously and appreciate the work of the research community. If you believe you've found a vulnerability, please disclose it responsibly and give us a chance to fix it before going public.
