Privacy isn't optional. It's our foundation.

FaceCall is built with a Zero-Knowledge architecture. We can’t see your calls, we can’t hear your voice, and we don’t sell your data.

End-to-End Encryption

Every call, video stream, and message is encrypted on your device and only decrypted by the recipient.

No Data Mining

We are not an ad company. We do not mine your conversations or sell your contact graph to third parties.

Ephemeral Storage

Video previews are streamed live and never stored on our servers. Once the call ends, the data is gone.

Under the hood

We don’t rely on proprietary “black box” security. FaceCall is built on open, battle-tested cryptographic primitives trusted by security experts worldwide.

Signal-Based Encryption Protocol

FaceCall utilizes the industry-standard Signal Protocol for end-to-end encryption. This means that no matter what, your calls would remain mathematically impossible to decipher.

On-Device Key Generation

Private keys are generated and stored exclusively on your device's secure enclave. They never leave your phone.

Perfect Forward Secrecy

We generate new session keys for every call. Even if a key from the past is stolen, it cannot be used to decrypt future or past calls.

Tools to keep you safe

Technology is only half the battle. We give you granular controls to manage who can contact you and what they can see.

Granular Blocking

Block a user instantly. They will not be notified, but they will never be able to call or see your profile again.

Video Privacy Toggle

Don't want to show your face? Default your outgoing calls to audio-only with one tap in settings.

Report Abuse

Flag inappropriate behavior. Our safety team reviews reports and bans bad actors from the platform.

Contact Only Mode

Restrict incoming video previews to people in your contacts list only.

Proactive Threat Defense

How we handle sophisticated attacks against your identity.

App Lock

Secure FaceCall with FaceID, TouchID, or your device passcode. Keep your call history private - even if your phone is unlocked.

Man-in-the-Middle (MITM)

Attackers trying to intercept calls are blocked by Identity Key Verification. This prevents any third-party from peeking into your calls.

Local-Only History

Call logs are stored locally on your device database, not synced to our cloud servers in plain text.

The Data Lifecycle

We minimize data at every step. Here is exactly what happens when you make a call.

01. Initiation

You start a call. Your app requests a one-time IP address from our signaling server.

02. Handshake

Your device and the recipient's device exchange encryption keys. FaceCall servers see only encrypted noise.

03. Streaming

The call connects P2P (Peer-to-Peer). Video and audio flow directly between devices, bypassing us.

04. Deletion

Call ends. Ephemeral keys are destroyed on both devices. No recording exists anywhere.

Fortified Infrastructure

Our security extends beyond the app code to the physical hardware that powers our signaling. We operate a decentralized network designed for resilience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does FaceCall store my video calls?

No. FaceCall uses a peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture whenever possible. The video stream goes directly from your phone to your contact’s phone. Our servers only facilitate the handshake.

Can FaceCall listen to my audio calls?

Due to End-to-End Encryption, we do not possess the private keys required to decrypt your audio. Your conversation stays between you and the recipient.

What happens if I lose my phone

Your account is tied to your phone number and secured by SMS verification. If you lose your device, you can log in on a new phone to instantly revoke access from the old device.

Do you track my location?

We do not track or log your historical location. Location permissions are optional and only used if you explicitly choose to share your live location during a call.

How can I delete my data?

You can delete your account permanently from within the app settings. This instantly wipes your profile, contact map, and metadata from our servers in compliance with GDPR.

Is my payment information secure?

FaceCall does not process payments or store credit card details directly. All Premium subscriptions are handled securely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store).
