Privacy explained
Ariola uses a persistent anonymous sign-in ID. Your browser remembers your session and preferences; servers store your profile, messages, uploads and safety records.
Public messages and profile details are visible to other users. Private chats are limited to participants, with service access for moderation and operation; they are not end-to-end encrypted.
Your IP address may suggest a country, which you can change. Text is checked for prohibited content; incoming messages may be sent to Google Cloud Translation.
Optional Google Analytics stays off until you allow it. If enabled, notifications use a device token and may show message previews.
Manage optional analytics from any policy page. Clearing browser data does not delete stored conversations.

What Ariola offers
Ariola is a nickname-based text chat for adults 18+. Read and reply to public messages, or choose an optional 1:1 conversation. No email or password is required to start.
How to start chatting
Confirm that you are 18 or older above. Read the public conversation, then choose a nickname of 2–15 characters when you first send a message. Optional profile details can be added later.
Protect your identity in a conversation
Choose a nickname that does not reveal your full name, email address or social account. Avoid sharing your workplace, exact address, personal documents, account recovery codes or other identifying details. Another participant can copy information you send.
No chat service can guarantee that every interaction is safe. Keep identifying information private, use block and report tools, and leave a conversation that makes you uncomfortable.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to register?
No. Ariola creates an anonymous sign-in identifier for the session. You do not choose an email-and-password login.
Are private chats the same as public messages?
No. Public messages are shared with the room. A private chat opens a separate conversation with one other participant. Keep personal information private in either setting.
Which features can I use?
Public and private chats support text, photos and recorded voice messages. Incoming text can be translated into your selected language. Photos and recordings undergo safety checks, and sending limits apply.
Can I change my nickname?
Yes. Edit your nickname in Profile. The nickname must meet Ariola’s 2–15 character limit and text rules.
Is Ariola free to use?
You can enter Ariola’s public room and start private text chats without a subscription or payment card.
