What Shuffle does with your messages
It trains on your conversations unless you turn that off.
Your message passes through 4 sets of hands before it is answered, and Shuffle names 1.
Read from its published policy on 2026-09-10, and quoted rather than paraphrased.
Whose hands it passes through
Somebody carries the message, somebody runs the model that reads it, and where the agent uses a website on your behalf somebody operates that browser. A blank below is not an absence of a company, it is a company nobody has named.
- iMessage, SMS
- DNFT, Inc.

In its own words
“Your content (messages, images, inputs) may be used to train, fine-tune, and improve AI models operated by DNFT. To opt out of DNFT's internal model training, email privacy@dnftinc.com with subject "Model Training Opt-Out."”
What it does not answer
Each of these is a question some policies in this directory answer. The count is how many of the 56 we have read close it.
- the people in your threads who never signed up
- which model providers your conversations are sent to
- where to report a hole
Silence is not a denial and it is not a promise. A document that does not address the people in your group thread has not agreed to anything about them.
How old this document is
Shuffle last revised it on 2026-09-08, which was 2 days before we read it. 52 of the 56 policies here carry a revision date at all; the rest do not say when they were last changed, so there is no way to tell whether they describe the product as it ships today.
We started keeping a dated copy of this document on 2026-09-10. A policy that is quietly rewritten leaves nothing behind, so from here any change to it is recorded with the date it appeared.
Back to the Shuffle listing, every policy read the same way, or why 22 of 65 give no answer at all.
