Features

Built around your privacy

Every feature in ChineseChat was designed with one principle: your data belongs to you.

End-to-End Encryption

Every message is encrypted on your device before it leaves. Only the recipient can decrypt it — not us, not anyone.

No Location Tracking

We never collect IP addresses, device fingerprints, or location data. Your identity stays with you.

No Message Logs

Messages are never stored on our servers. Once delivered, they exist only on the devices of the people in the conversation.

Verified Contacts

A public-key fingerprint system lets you verify that the person you are talking to is exactly who they say they are.

Native Windows App

Built for Windows 10 and 11. Runs natively on your machine — lightweight, fast, and no browser required.

Group Chats

Create encrypted group conversations with up to 500 members. The same zero-knowledge guarantee applies to every participant.

How It Works

Encryption you can verify

ChineseChat uses a double-ratchet algorithm — the same protocol used by Signal — to provide forward secrecy. Even if a session key is ever compromised, past messages remain protected.

AES-256-GCM message encryption
X25519 key exchange
Double-Ratchet forward secrecy
SHA-512 message integrity

01

Keys generated on your device

When you install ChineseChat, a unique pair of cryptographic keys is generated locally. Your private key never leaves your machine.

02

Messages encrypted before sending

Your message is encrypted using AES-256 with the recipient's public key before it is transmitted across the network.

03

Only the recipient can decrypt

The ciphertext travels through our servers but cannot be read by anyone — including us. Only the recipient's private key can open it.

04

Delivered and discarded

Once a message is delivered, it is removed from our infrastructure. Nothing is retained. There is nothing to subpoena.
