[Help] A guide for guardians (parents/teachers/etc) to Perchance?
A friend of mine has a middle-schooler who has been using Perchance for chatting, and I'm looking around for information about how Perchance stores its data, just as a precaution and to advise them about data security.
The kid is naturally curious and intelligent, but you know how easy it is to get into a situation where you think it's safe to reveal personal information on the internet; I just want an idea of what kind of "threat level" use of Perchance might entail so I can caution them accordingly.
For example, apparently the child was getting a lot of prompts asking for stories from their past. This could easily lead to a situation where identifiable information could be sent out, and if Perchance persists any of the prompts to a database, then I would want to know what level of security surrounds that information, what data retention limits are placed on it, if any, and who has access to it.
Thanks in advance, I didn't see any other questions about this matter on here, but then perhaps my own question parameters were not formed correctly!
You're viewing a single thread.
I just did my first banning of someone from the comments on my generator because they were saying things that made it clear no woman or child should ever, for their own safety, share personal info where they can see. And banned people can still see comments. So as much as I would like to say Perchance has safe places, it really is more like being on a public street in a city and people need to be wary enough to survive in such a place and perfectly withstand probing for personal information. Some people learn internet safety early and some later, so imo it depends on the individual for which age I would let them on. The actual maker of Perchance has ideals and won't cause harm no matter what info they could get; the publIc nature of the place is the concern.
