Keep your personal info, personal

Updated: Apr 10

For many people who connect online, including online daters, a major concern when meeting new people is the guarding of one’s personal information. Whether it’s a phone number, email, or social media, given the interconnectedness of information, it’s rather easy for someone we haven’t met IRL to gather a lot of information about us, just from one of these pieces of commonly shared details. 


It doesn’t have to be this way. For online daters, you know the drill- it’s usually chat, chat some more and then if it may make sense to move things along, share social media or a phone number. With the NoGhosts app, you can instead send a disappearing appearance request to someone you’d like to meet IRL without having to give out that additional personal information. This gives you a chance to chat leading up to meeting IRL. No need to follow anyone or receive texts out of the blue, with NoGhosts the focus is transitioning online connections to IRL ones, which is how communication is set up in the app. 


Instead of sharing personal details before meeting someone, using NoGhosts protects your info while allowing you to focus on planning to meet IRL reliably. This will avoid the awkward comment on a photo, or random messages weeks later. It also helps move conversations towards meeting and knowing when people are really serious instead of perhaps just seeking likes and follows. Not every appearance request necessarily means someone accepts to meet, but it will move the conversation, without having to share a number or socials.
