Grindr doesn't store your chat history, so logging in on a new device won't show your old chat messages. Phew.
Grindr is particularly bad at security. It was fairly easy to triangulate users locations until fairly recently and some users were being harassed, and grindr ignored their reports for a long time.
It was also fairly easy to use fake locations until fairly recently which was also causing problems for non-users.
Grindr regularly shuts down accounts with no process. It's very easy to lose your contacts.
Grindr lies about what information they retain. They claim to hold very little information, which they provide when your account is shut down. However they must retain a list of your blocks and favorites in order to function. They lie and say they don't retain this info.
Because of the nature of their service, they should be on top of all this stuff, but they are really bad at it.
