Is CrushOn AI Safe? — A Thorough Privacy & Security Review
Affiliate disclosure: This page contains referral links.
Last updated: May 2026. Privacy data sourced from Mozilla Foundation's Privacy Not Included evaluation and CrushOn AI's published privacy policy.
CrushOn AI is not malicious software — but describing it as "safe" without qualification would be misleading. The platform uses SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit, has no publicly reported data breaches as of May 2026, and doesn't require real-name registration. Those are meaningful positives.
What Mozilla Foundation found when they evaluated CrushOn AI's privacy practices goes further in the other direction than most platforms in this category. Their "WARNING" label — the worst designation in their Privacy Not Included system — is based on documented findings: 45 trackers within the first minute of use, health data categories mentioned 23 times in the privacy policy, biometric data collection, and an inability to confirm whether stored data is encrypted at rest.
This page covers what's known, what it means practically, and how users can reduce their exposure.
What Mozilla Foundation Found
Mozilla's Privacy Not Included is an independent consumer privacy evaluation project that assesses products against documented privacy practices rather than self-reported claims. CrushOn AI received their worst designation: "WARNING."
The specific findings break down into several categories.
Tracking at scale: 45 trackers were loaded within the first minute of using CrushOn AI, including DoubleClick — Google's advertising tracker network. 45 trackers in the first minute is significantly above the category average for consumer software.
Health data collection: The CrushOn AI privacy policy mentions health data 23 times across categories including mental health conditions, physical health conditions, medications, medical treatments, gender-affirming care, reproductive health, and sexual health. These categories are collected and may be used for "commercial purposes" and advertising targeting according to the policy.
Biometric data: Three types of biometric data are documented in the collection: face images, keystroke patterns (timing and dynamics of how you type), and voice recordings.
Encryption at rest: Mozilla explicitly noted that they could not confirm whether CrushOn AI encrypts data stored on their servers. This is distinct from in-transit encryption (which is confirmed) — it means we cannot verify what protection stored user data has in the event of a server breach.
What CrushOn AI Collects
Based on the published privacy policy and Mozilla's review, CrushOn AI collects an unusually broad range of data categories. Beyond the standard contact information (email) and device data that most platforms collect, CrushOn AI's documented collection includes audio and visual data (voice recordings and face images), financial and transaction data, location data, all chat content and conversation history, identity data, and the health and biometric categories described above.
The stated uses for this data include AI model training and improvement, which is standard across AI platforms. More noteworthy is that the policy explicitly lists commercial purposes — advertising, marketing, and business analytics — and social media engagement as uses for collected data. The data is shared with affiliated entities under the Peekaboo Tech corporate family (Peekaboo Tech Ltd., Inc., and Game Ltd.) as well as third-party vendors, advertising partners, and — in the event of a business transaction — any future acquirers.
Age Verification: The Minimum
CrushOn AI uses a self-reported 18+ checkbox for age verification. There is no document verification, no third-party age check, and no identity confirmation. Anyone can access the platform and its NSFW content by checking the "I am 18+" box.
Child safety organizations including FindMyKids have specifically flagged this approach as inadequate. In the current regulatory environment, self-reported checkboxes are increasingly viewed as insufficient for platforms that publish adult content. The practical consequence: the age gate is a formality, not a meaningful barrier.
Trustpilot: Reading the Signal Carefully
CrushOn AI's Trustpilot rating is 2.1/5 stars, with 13 of 14 reviews at 1-star as of May 2026. The common themes in negative reviews are specific: AI responses described as "randomly generated nonsense," characters that ignore their specified personalities, and a perception of poor value at expensive tiers.
Context matters here. Fourteen total reviews against a platform with 3M+ monthly active users is an extremely small sample. The 1-star clustering likely reflects a self-selection bias in who writes Trustpilot reviews — users who had notably bad experiences — rather than a representative survey of the user base. That said, the pattern is unusual even accounting for selection bias. Most platforms show more distribution across star ratings even when overall scores are low.
The Trustpilot evidence suggests the platform has a real AI quality consistency problem for a subset of users. It's not definitive evidence that the majority experience is poor, but it's worth factoring into expectations.
Protective Steps for Users Who Proceed
The risk profile of CrushOn AI doesn't automatically disqualify it for users who understand what they're accepting. Many users with specific use cases will reasonably conclude that the features are worth the privacy trade-offs when approached carefully. Here's how to meaningfully reduce exposure:
Before first use: Create a dedicated email address that isn't connected to your real identity. Use a VPN before your first visit to crushon.ai — this limits the location data collected at the IP level. Use a browser with built-in tracker blocking (Brave, or Firefox with uBlock Origin) to reduce the 45-tracker exposure at the session level.
During use: Avoid sharing real personal information in chat conversations — names, locations, health information, financial details. The chat content you share is documented as training data and may be used for commercial purposes. Treat conversations as not private. Disable location tracking in your device settings for the mobile app. Decline any third-party sign-in options (Google accounts, etc.) to reduce cross-platform data linkage.
When done: Account deletion requires contacting support@crushon.ai with an explicit deletion request — the process takes approximately 48 hours. Request data deletion in the same email. Clear app data and cache after account deletion.
Has CrushOn AI Been Hacked?
No publicly disclosed data breaches involving CrushOn AI have been reported as of May 2026. The platform is not listed in major breach notification databases for any known incidents.
The relevant risk context is the unconfirmed encryption at rest. Most major breach notifications reveal that the severity of exposure depends on whether data was encrypted — encrypted data in a breach is effectively unreadable; unencrypted data is exposed in full. Mozilla's inability to confirm CrushOn AI's encryption at rest means we cannot assess the severity of a hypothetical future breach based on currently available information.
Our Safety Verdict
Users can use CrushOn AI safely if they take the precautions described above and approach the platform without sharing sensitive real information in conversations. The platform passes the basic safety bar (no malware, SSL-encrypted connections, no reported breaches).
It fails the privacy bar on multiple documented dimensions. For users who are privacy-sensitive, who disclose health information or real personal details in chat, or who cannot maintain a clear separation between their real identity and their platform account, CrushOn AI represents meaningful risk that other platforms in the category don't.

Frequently Asked Questions
The privacy policy documents data sharing with affiliated companies (Peekaboo Tech Ltd., Inc., Game Ltd.) and third-party advertising partners for commercial purposes. The legal definition of "selling" varies by jurisdiction and contract structure. The practical effect — that your data reaches advertising partners — is documented.
Email support@crushon.ai with an explicit account and data deletion request using the email address associated with your account. Account deletion typically takes approximately 48 hours. Request data deletion explicitly — this is separate from account deletion and should be stated in the same message.
No. The platform is explicitly intended for users 18 and older. Age verification is a self-reported checkbox with no independent verification. Adult content is accessible to anyone who checks the box. Content moderation is minimal — disturbing content can appear outside of deliberate NSFW contexts. CrushOn AI is not appropriate for users under 18.
Yes, according to documented uses in the privacy policy. Chat content is listed among data categories used for AI model training and improvement. This is common practice among AI platforms. Users who are concerned about privacy of their conversations should treat all chat content as potentially used for training purposes and should not share sensitive personal information in chat.
No major publicly reported security incidents have been disclosed involving CrushOn AI as of May 2026. The platform does not appear in major breach notification databases for known incidents. The risk factor is the unconfirmed encryption at rest — in the event of a future breach, the protection level of stored data cannot be verified based on current available public information.
