We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

• AI Service Providers: Your profile content is processed by third-party AI models (Anthropic Claude API) to provide analysis and generation features. This data is transmitted securely and is subject to the service provider's data processing policies.
• Apple App Store: Subscription and payment processing is handled by Apple. Your payment information is governed by Apple's privacy policy.
• Analytics Providers: We may use third-party analytics services to help us understand Service usage. These services collect information anonymously and report trends without identifying individual users.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
• Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

5. Data Retention

Dating profile content submitted for analysis is processed in real time and is not permanently stored on our servers after the analysis session ends. Account-related data and usage analytics are retained for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. If you request account deletion, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information. All data is transmitted via encrypted connections using HTTPS/TLS protocols. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 18, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. If you believe that a child under 18 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at dating.advice.group@gmail.com.
