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.
