Privacy Policy

How Darlivo collects, uses, and protects your personal information.

Last updated: April 10, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Darlivo Network LLC ("Darlivo", "we", "us") collects, uses, stores, and shares your personal information when you use the Darlivo mobile app, website, or any related services (together, the "Service").

By using Darlivo, you agree to the practices described here. If you disagree with any part of this policy, please stop using the Service and delete your account.

Short version: We collect the information we need to help you meet people, keep you safe, process payments, and improve the Service. We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with the third parties we rely on to operate Darlivo, or when we are legally required to. You can delete your account at any time.

1. Who we are

Darlivo is operated by Darlivo Network LLC. We are the data controller responsible for the personal information you share with us through the Service.

If you have questions about this policy or want to exercise any of the rights described below, email us at [email protected].

2. Information we collect

We collect information in three ways: you give it to us, we collect it automatically when you use the Service, and we receive it from third parties you connect to Darlivo.

Information you give us

  • Account information. Your name, email address, phone number, password, date of birth, and gender when you sign up.

  • Profile information. Your bio, photos, interests, preferences, and anything else you choose to add to your profile.

  • Verification data. Photos you submit for profile verification so we can confirm you are a real person.

  • Messages and content. Chat messages you send to matches, Tinu Moments you post, comments, reactions, and any other content you create on Darlivo.

  • Payment information. When you buy credits or a subscription, our payment partners collect your payment details. Darlivo itself does not store full card numbers.

  • Support communications. Any information you share when you contact us for help.

Information we collect automatically

  • Device information. Device model, operating system, app version, language, and unique device identifiers.

  • Location data. Your approximate location based on your IP address, and more precise location if you grant the app permission. We use location to show you people nearby and to determine which region you are in.

  • Usage data. Pages you visit, features you use, buttons you tap, time spent, crashes, and performance data.

  • Log data. Your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and timestamps for every request.

  • Cookies and similar technologies. Small data files stored on your device that help us keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and measure how the Service is used.

Information from third parties

  • Social login providers. If you sign in with Google, Facebook, or Apple, we receive the profile information they share with us (name, email, profile picture) based on your permissions.

  • Payment processors. Our payment partners tell us whether a transaction succeeded and provide limited information needed to reconcile payments.

  • Analytics and advertising partners. We receive aggregated information about how people find Darlivo and interact with our marketing.

3. How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Provide the Service. Create your account, show your profile to other users, match you with compatible people nearby, deliver messages, and process your subscriptions.

  • Keep Darlivo safe. Verify users, detect fake or harmful accounts, moderate content, investigate reports, enforce our Terms of Use, and comply with our Child Safety Policy.

  • Communicate with you. Send you notifications about matches, messages, account updates, service announcements, and occasionally marketing messages you can opt out of.

  • Process payments. Handle credit purchases, subscriptions, refunds, and chargebacks through our payment partners.

  • Improve the Service. Understand how people use Darlivo, fix bugs, test new features, and make the app better over time.

  • Personalize your experience. Recommend people, content, and features based on your profile and activity.

  • Meet our legal obligations. Respond to lawful requests, enforce our rights, and comply with applicable law.

If you are in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, we rely on the following legal bases under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

  • Contract. We need to process your data to provide the Service you signed up for.

  • Legitimate interests. We have a legitimate interest in keeping Darlivo safe, preventing fraud, improving the Service, and communicating with you about your account.

  • Consent. For things like marketing communications, precise location tracking, and certain analytics, we ask for your consent and you can withdraw it at any time.

  • Legal obligation. We process some data because we are legally required to, for example responding to lawful requests from authorities.

5. Who we share your information with

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with the third parties we rely on to run Darlivo, and only to the extent necessary for them to do their job.
