On one of your devices, if you and a friend start a private conversation, just that device will have access to it. All of your private chats will be lost once you check out. You can make as many different private chats with the same contact as you like. For how to do it, click here.
You can enjoy end-to-end encryption on Telegram. The participating devices use the so-called Diffie-Hellman key exchange to exchange encryption keys when a secret chat is created. Following the creation of the secure end-to-end connection, we create a graphic that represents the encryption key for your chat. When you compare this image to your friend’s, If the two photos are the same, you may be certain that the secret conversation is secure and that a man-in-the-middle assault cannot succeed.

Telegram has two-step verification, and you can turn it on.
