Privacy
Last updated: September 2026
In short: no accounts, no sign-up and no database. We never see your baby's gender.
The sealed answer
Boy or girl is scrambled with your PIN on your phone and packed into the short code at the end of your link. We don't keep a list of envelopes and never try to open them. Like any web address, the link may appear in our hosting provider's standard logs, but without the PIN it just looks like a random code.
Your PIN
Your PIN isn't stored anywhere: not on our side and not on your phone. It's only in the message you choose to share.
What we don't collect
- No names, emails or phone numbers
- No accounts or cookies
- No analytics or ads tracking
Third parties
Our hosting provider may keep standard technical logs (like IP address and browser type) to run the website. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address when the page loads. If you share a link through WhatsApp or another app, that app's own privacy policy applies.
Sharing is up to you
Anyone who has both the link and the PIN can open the envelope, just like a paper envelope. Only share them with people you trust. Links stop opening after 3 months.
Changes
If we add things like ads or analytics in the future, we'll update this page first.
