Privacy & TermsTechnologies we use
Cookies and storage, location, advertising, AI moderation, passkeys and other technologies that make Xcojo work.
Cookies and local storage
We use a small number of cookies and similar storage to keep you signed in across Xcojo (a secure session cookie on .xcojo.com), remember your language, theme, time zone and country, protect forms against forgery (CSRF tokens) and detect abuse. We don’t use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. Embedded players (such as YouTube or the Internet Archive on JoinStream) may set their own cookies when you press play; we use privacy-enhanced embeds where available.
Location
Xcojo estimates your city from your IP address to show the right language, currency, news, places and prices. This is approximate and never reveals your exact address. With your permission, features like directions, rides and “near me” use your device’s precise location while you use them. You can turn device location off in your browser or phone settings and choose your country manually in your Xcojo Account; sign-up never requires location.
Advertising
Xcojo Ads are contextual: they use the page or game you’re on, the words you searched and your approximate city. They do not use your history, messages, contacts or profile, and we don’t build advertising profiles. Every ad is labelled “Sponsored” and has a “Why this ad?” explanation. Supervised accounts see no ads. See Advertising Policies.
Automated moderation
Posts, messages reported to us, listings, uploads and AI prompts are checked by automated systems — rules and AI classifiers — for spam, scams, abuse, sexual exploitation and illegal content. Clear violations may be blocked automatically; borderline cases go to trained reviewers. Automated systems help us act at scale, and people make decisions on appeals and serious account actions.
Passkeys and verification
Passkeys let you sign in with your device’s screen lock instead of a password; the private key never leaves your device. We also ask you to confirm sensitive actions with your passkey (“step-up”). SMS and email codes are used for verification and recovery.
AI models
JoinCTT and other features use AI models run by Xcojo and by model providers on our behalf. We route requests across providers for speed and reliability; providers process data only to answer your request. AI-generated media is labelled.
Automatic translation
When a page hasn’t been translated into your language yet, Xcojo may translate interface text automatically with AI. User content is translated only when you ask.
