2. THE MOST SECURE MESSAGING APP
 All around the world, users turn to
Viber to have open and authentic
conversations with their friends,
family and colleagues. With Viber
you can rest assured, knowing
that your personal chats are
always protected and private and
that all your conversations are
your own. Our mission is to
protect that privacy so you never
have to think twice about what
you can or can’t share when
you’re using Viber.

3. WE DON’T READ OR LISTEN TO ANY OF YOUR
CHATS AND CALLS
 Unlike other messaging apps, Viber
can’t read your personal chats (including
one-on-one chats and group chats) or
listen in on your audio or video calls. We
can’t access your messages since we
use end-to-end encryption by default.
You don’t have to go out of your way to
turn it on. This means that your private
and group communications are
completely encrypted so that only you
and the people you’re talking to can
read or hear them.

4. WE CAN’T AND DON’T SELL YOUR CONTENT
 When your chats are protected by end-to-end
encryption, no one can access them. Perhaps most
importantly, Viber doesn’t have access to them—which
means nothing you share can be used to target you with
ads later. Other messaging apps will not fully encrypt
your chats automatically for you unless you actively turn
on the encryption mode. This means that some of these
apps can access, read and sell your private
conversations to other 3rd parties or advertisers. Viber’s
policy guarantees that we can’t sell your private
information since we chose to have no access to your
private chats and calls in the first place. So, you can be
sure you won’t mysteriously see ads related to
something you were just talking about with a friend on
Viber.

5. MORE THAN ENCRYPTION
 Not only are your communications protected by
end-to-end encryption by default, nothing you
share is ever stored on Viber’s servers once
delivered. In fact, the messages you send make
their way from your device to the recipient’s as an
encrypted code. If the recipient’s phone is off or
they don’t have an internet connection, for
example, your message will wait patiently on
Viber’s servers for a limited time—still safe and
encrypted—until their device is prepared to receive
and decrypt it.

6. 100% privacy you can trust::
Thanks to end-to-end encryption, any type of
information you share will always remain between
yourself and the person you’re talking to. This means
you never have to think twice about what you can or
can’t share when you’re using Viber.

7. IN-TRANSIT ENCRYPTION
 For extra protection, everything Viber
sends from your device to the server
on its way to your recipient’s device
is encrypted as it travels across the
internet.

8. END-TO-END ENCRYPTION
BY DEFAULT
 Messages you send make their way from
your device to the recipient’s in the form
of an encrypted code that only their
device can translate to plain text using an
encryption key. Encryption keys exist only
on user devices and nowhere else. So,
no one — not even Viber — can read
your messages.

9. TRUST YOUR CONTACTS
 Verify the identity of the person you’re
communicating with. In your chat info screen,
authenticate and confirm that the person you’re
chatting with is who they say they are. This
provides you with an extra level of security
protection if anything changes with your contact.

10. An added sense of privacy::
While Viber’s end-to-end encryption by default
gives users peace of mind, sometimes we need even
more privacy. These privacy features enable users to
share extra-sensitive information.

11. HIDDEN CHATS
 Planning a surprise party and don’t want
anyone to accidentally see your
conversation? Hide conversations from
your main chat list and access them
whenever you need to with a PIN.

12. SELF-DESTRUCTING CHATS
 Secret Chats lets you set a self-destruct timer
for every message in your conversation so that
after your message is read, it is automatically
deleted from the Viber chat.

13. STAY UNDER THE RADAR
 Control when others can see your online
status and the delivery status of the
messages they send you.
