PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy is designed to explain how we collect, use, process, and safeguard your personal information across all of our websites, mobile applications, and digital services. By accessing or interacting with our platform, you agree to the data practices described throughout this policy.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We gather information to provide a seamless and rewarding experience. This includes information you provide directly to us when setting up your account, such as your basic login credentials, your gender, and your date of birth. As you build your presence on our platform, we also store the profile content you choose to share, including your photos, bio, and stated interests. Additionally, we collect the necessary financial payment information required to process your payouts, along with any communications you have with our customer support team.

Beyond the data you give us directly, we receive information from external sources. This includes data shared when you choose to log in using third-party social media platforms like Facebook, optimization details from our advertising partners regarding how you found our app, and reports submitted by other users regarding platform interactions.

Finally, our systems automatically collect certain technical details during your sessions. This includes your usage activity—such as your logins, clicks, and general feature interactions—along with specific device details like your IP address, unique device identifiers, and network information. Rest assured that we only access your precise geolocation, device camera, or photo library when you grant us explicit, opt-in permission through your device settings.

2. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use the information we collect to manage your account, deliver our core services, and connect you with other users on the platform. Processing your data allows us to personalize your experience by serving relevant content, tailored offers, and contextual advertisements that fit your interests.

We also look at aggregated user behavior to analyze trends, which helps our team improve platform performance and develop new features. On the operational side, your data is vital for maintaining a secure environment; it helps us detect and prevent fraud, stop unauthorized activities, and ensure full compliance with our legal obligations.

3. HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

We believe in transparency when it comes to where your data goes. Any information or media you choose to place on your public profile will be visible to other users on the platform, so we encourage you to share personal details responsibly.

To keep our services running smoothly, we share necessary data with trusted third-party service providers and partners who handle essential backend operations. These partners assist us with secure data hosting, platform analytics, customer care, and marketing campaigns. For users operating within the European Economic Area (EEA), please note that your data may occasionally be transferred to and processed in countries outside the EEA. When this occurs, we utilize standard, legally approved contractual clauses to ensure your information receives an equivalent level of strict protection.

4. COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

To provide a customizable experience, we utilize cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies. These tools allow us to securely authenticate your identity, remember your preferred app settings, analyze our traffic patterns, and deliver relevant advertisements. Please note that our services are built to operate uniformly and do not currently alter their behavior or respond to browser-based "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals.

5. SECURITY AND DATA RETENTION

We consistently update our security practices and employ industry-standard safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access. However, because no digital system or online transmission is completely immune to vulnerabilities, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain your personal details only for as long as necessary to fulfill our legitimate business operations and legal responsibilities. If you choose to delete your account, we implement a strict one-year safety retention window before the data is permanently erased. Furthermore, if an account remains entirely inactive for a continuous period of two years, it will be automatically deleted or permanently anonymized, except in cases where specific data must be kept to satisfy legal requirements or prevent fraud.

6. YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES

You remain in total control of your personal data. You can access, update, or remove your information at any time by navigating through your in-app account settings or adjusting your device's native app permissions.

If you would like to request a formal copy of the personal information we hold about you, request specific corrections to inaccuracies, or object to certain ways we process your data, you can do so by emailing our team. For California residents, you also have the right to request a statutory notice disclosing the categories of personal information we may have shared with third parties for their direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year.

7. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

Our platform and services are strictly designed and intended for users who are 18 years of age or older. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for underage accounts and do not knowingly collect, solicit, or retain personal information from minors.

8. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy as our services evolve. When updates occur, we will revise the date at the top of this document and provide you with advance notification through our platform before any material changes officially take effect.
