Drift Bottle
A super fun app where you toss your thoughts and pick up surprises!
Introduction
Connect Across Borders
Randomly encounter messages from people around the world who
are ready to share stories, tips, and surprises through drift
bottles.
Text Bottles Available
Throw a text bottle and see who catches it. Share a short note
or a simple hello—no registration required beyond your drift
message.
Picture Bottles
Attach an image to your bottle for visual storytelling. Viewers
can enjoy or reply with their own media while staying anonymous.
Privacy Statement
Drift Bottle prioritizes confidentiality while providing a playful platform. This section explains how we collect, handle, and protect your contributions when you send, reply, or interact with drift bottles.
-
Minimal retention: Only message content that you actively send—whether a new bottle or a reply—is retained, and solely for as long as it is necessary to deliver the feature. Bottles are stored without identifiers, so unless you voluntarily include personal details in a message, nothing is linked to your real identity.
-
Anonymous by design: We do not collect personal identifiers such as names, phone numbers, emails, or precise locations unless you explicitly choose to embed them in a drift bottle. Even then, such disclosures are not indexed or aggregated, preserving the anonymity of every user.
-
Stateless interactions: Each catch action is treated as an independent event. We do not track viewing histories or build profiles, allowing you to explore drift bottles without behavioral tracking or targeted recommendations.
-
Security safeguards: All data transfers leverage industry-standard encryption, and stored content resides behind access-controlled layers with routine audits. We continually review our security posture to address emerging risks and keep your contributions protected.
-
Legal compliance: In the rare situation where a lawful request mandates disclosure, we limit the shared information to what is strictly required and notify you when permitted by law.

Our roadmap balances fresh interaction modes with privacy and performance safeguards.
