Privacy Policy
Draft: this text is under legal review before launch and may change. It describes our actual practices as implemented in the product today.
What we collect
- Account data: your email or phone number, or the identifier from Apple or Google if you use them.
- Profile data: name, gender, photos, bio, interests, prompts and city.
- Date of birth: used only to check your age and never shown to anyone. If you're under 18, we don't store it.
- Your current location: only with your permission when you open Discover, rounded to about 1 km. It isn’t added to your profile or shown to anyone, and it’s cleared a day after you last used it.
- Your activity: likes, passes, matches and the messages you send.
- Limited usage measurements to improve the product, never your message content or contact details.
How we use it
- To run discovery, matching and chat.
- To protect the community: reviewing reports and preventing abuse.
- To send the notifications you chose.
What others see
- Your profile (name, age, photos, bio, interests, prompts, city) and an approximate distance.
- Nobody sees your email, phone number, exact location or date of birth.
Your rights
- Download a copy of your data from Settings → Privacy & safety.
- Hide from Discover any time.
- Permanently delete your account from Settings; your profile, photos, matches and messages are deleted.
Photos
- We remove EXIF metadata (including where the photo was taken) from every photo and re-encode it on our servers before it is stored.
How long we keep it
- Your profile, photos, matches and messages: until you delete your account.
- A photo our team did not approve: 30 days, so you can see why.
- A verification selfie: 30 days after it is reviewed, then the file is deleted.
- Activity notices: 90 days after you read them, and a year at most.
- A pass: 90 days. Signed-in devices unused for 6 months are signed out.
- Reports and moderation decisions are kept to keep the community safe.
