What it is

If you live in the EU, UK, or California, you have specific legal rights over your personal data, including the ability to ask BeReal to show you, correct, delete, or transfer your data, or to stop certain uses of it.

This analysis describes what BeReal's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

These rights give users in covered jurisdictions meaningful control over their personal data, but they are only valuable if users know they exist and how to exercise them.

Interpretive note: The specific operational procedures for submitting and fulfilling rights requests (including identity verification steps and response timelines) are not fully detailed in the available policy text.

Medium Jul 8, 2026

The updated policy now requires email address in addition to phone number, full name, and date of birth to create an account. BeReal discloses that it derives likely gender from your username, first name, and biography using AI, and uses this classification for internal targeting purposes. The policy also reveals that a randomized sample of 0.001% of users will have their interface interactions (touches and swipes) recorded through an analytics partner for up to 90 days to understand how users navigate the app; this practice does not apply in all geographic regions. You can review your app settings or contact BeReal to inquire about your data collection status.
