What we collect

We validate the Telegram user ID sent when you open the Mini App. We keep a keyed hash of that ID, your chosen display name, date of birth, gender and matching preferences, city, bio, interests, profile photo, reactions, matches, messages, blocks and reports. We record community-rule acceptance and moderation decisions. We do not request your phone number, street address, contacts or precise location.

How it is used and displayed

Your approved profile, age, city, photo, gender, interests and bio are shown to eligible signed-in members to support discovery and matching. Your date of birth is not shown to other members. Matching preferences control reciprocal discovery. Administrators can review profile data, dates of birth and submitted photos for moderation. We do not use your profile to train AI or sell your profile data.

Messages and reports

Profile contents, photos, message bodies, report details and age-check notes are encrypted at rest. This is not end-to-end encryption: the server decrypts information to provide the service. When you report someone, up to 20 recent messages from your conversation are attached for moderator review. Profile visibility is restricted to signed-in members, but recipients can still save or screenshot what they see.

Retention and deletion

App data remains while your account is active. Delete your account in My profile to remove your profile, photo, reactions, matches, conversations, blocks and linked reports from the active app database. Deletion also removes shared conversation history for the other participant. Infrastructure logs and backups may be retained separately under the operator’s published hosting and backup schedule. Contact the operator for that schedule or to request deletion if you cannot access the app.

Sessions and service providers

We use an essential secure session cookie to keep you signed in for up to two hours. Telegram delivers authentication data and bot messages and has its own privacy policy. The operator’s web hosting provider processes app traffic and may hold network logs. The app does not include analytics or advertising trackers. If an age-assurance provider is introduced, its data use and retention must be explained before collection.

Your choices

Edit your profile, change preferences, block people, or delete your account in the app. For data access, correction, complaints, retention details or privacy requests, contact support@example.com. Only provide the minimum information needed; never send Telegram passwords, login codes or identity documents by ordinary email.
