FAQs

Preventing unauthorized LINE logins (account theft)

There has been an increase in cases of unauthorized logins that were likely due to the use of easy-to-guess passwords. We strongly recommend changing the password you've set on LINE if it can be easily guessed or is also being used with another service.

If the email address registered to your LINE account is with a web-based email service like Gmail or Yahoo! Mail, changing the password registered to your email account will give you even more protection.

Note: For details about changing your password with other services, contact the relevant service provider.

See this Help article for information on creating a more secure password, or this Help article for the steps to check/change your password.

Note: Follow the steps in these Help articles on the smartphone version of LINE.

Do I have to agree to the Revisions to the LINE Corporation Privacy Policy?

The LINE Privacy Policy has been revised in accordance with the amended Japanese Act on the Protection of Personal Information, which is scheduled to go into effect in April 2022.

To continue using LINE in the future, you will need to agree to the Revisions to the LINE Corporation Privacy Policy.

A notice about these revisions will be displayed in the LINE app. Even if you choose not to agree, this notice will appear again after a certain amount of time. If you don't agree to the revised Privacy Policy, you'll see this notice every time you start LINE from March 28.

For details about what revisions were made, please see this page.
