2. Where This Privacy Policy Applies
This Privacy Policy applies to websites, apps, events and other services we operate under the Vividi brand. Whether you're connecting with new friends, joining us at one of our events, or using any of our other awesome services, this Privacy Policy has got you covered. For simplicity, we just refer to all of these as our “service” in this Privacy Policy.
If for some reason, one of our services requires its own separate privacy policy, then that policy will be made available to you and that policy — not this Privacy Policy — will apply.
If you access a website, product or service offered by a third party, such as through Vividi or our website, your personal information may be collected by that third party. Please check the privacy policy of that third party to learn how your personal information will be processed by that third party. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the processing of your personal information between you and a third party.
3. Data We Collect
It goes without saying, we can’t help you develop meaningful connections without you providing some information about yourself, like basic profile details and the types of people you’d like to meet. Using our service also generates some information, such as when you logged in and how you used the service, as well as the insights and inferences we generate based on the content you provide. We also collect data from third parties, like when you access the service through an account you have on another platform (e.g., Google or Apple) or when you upload information from your account on another platform to complete your profile. If you're interested in all the details, be sure to check out the table below.
| Data you give us | |

Some of this data may be considered sensitive or special in certain countries, such as details about ethnicity or sexual orientation. If you choose to provide this data, you consent to us using it as laid out in this Privacy Policy. |
| Content | When you use our service, you share photos, videos, audio, text and other types of content, such as your chats with other members. |

The exact data depends on the payment method you choose. When you pay or request a refund directly with us (rather than through a platform such as iOS or Android), you provide your debit or credit card number or other financial information. |
| Marketing, Survey and Research Data | We sometimes run (i) surveys, focus groups, or market studies for research purposes and (ii) promotions, events or contests for marketing purposes. When you choose to participate, you give us information to process your entry and participation, as well as your responses to our questions and your feedback. |

When you contact us, you provide us with information that is necessary to help address your inquiry. Other people can also submit queries or reports involving you. Finally, our moderation tools and teams can collect additional data as part of their investigations. Further, we are part of the Match Group family of businesses. Match Group considers the safety and security of members a top priority. If you were banned from another Match Group service, your data can be shared with us to allow us to take necessary actions, including closing your account or preventing you from creating an account on our service. Where legally allowed, we also receive information about suspected or confirmed bad actors from third parties as part of our efforts to ensure our members’ safety and security. |
| Social Media Data | You can share data with us through your accounts on other platforms (e.g., Google or Apple), for instance if you decide to create and log into your account via these platforms or if you decide to upload data such as photos or friends' list onto our service from these platforms. |

We can also receive data related to interactions you have with our ads on third party websites or apps, if applicable. |

5. How We Share Data
Since our goal is to help you make meaningful connections, some of your information is of course visible to other members on the service. We also share data with service providers and partners who assist us in operating the service, with other Match Group companies for the reasons laid out below and, in some cases, for legal and related reasons. Read on for more details.
| Recipients | Reasons for sharing | Categories of Personal Data |
| Other members |
You share data with other members when you voluntarily disclose information on the service for others to see (e.g., your public profile).
If someone submits a report involving you (such as a claim you violated our Terms), we may let the reporter know what actions we took, if any, as a result of their report. The same applies if you submit a report involving another member. |
|
| Service providers / partners |
We share data with vendors and partners who help us operate, promote and improve our service. They provide us services such as data hosting and maintenance, analytics, customer care, marketing, advertising, payment processing, legal support, and security operations.
Where permitted by applicable law, we may also share data with partners (such as companies facing similar threats), and they may share data with us, when necessary to promote the safety, security, and integrity of our service, our Members, our employees, and others. |
Depending on the service provided by the vendor or partner, it may include:
|
| Advertising Partners |
We publish ads about third-party advertisers’ products and services on our service, and publish ads promoting our own service on third-party sites and apps. To help improve the relevance of these ads, we provide certain info about you to third parties, including advertising partners, or allow them to collect such data from our services (such as via cookies, SDKs, or similar technologies). Some of our advertising partners enable us to transform your email address, advertising identifiers or phone number into an identifier that can’t be used to identify you personally and then use that unique identifier to either exclude you from our marketing campaigns, or to target our ads at an audience that is similar to you in terms of background, interests or app usage.
If you live in the United States, some of the activities described in this section may constitute “targeted advertising,” “sharing,” or “selling” under applicable laws. You have the right to opt-out, as described in our CCPA Addendum. |
|
| Affiliates | We share data with affiliates or receive data from them for the purposes laid out in Section 6 of this Privacy Policy. |
The categories of data will vary based on the reason for sharing, but it may include:.
|
| Law enforcement authorities | We may disclose your data to: (i) comply with a legal process, such as a court order, subpoena or search warrant, government / law enforcement investigation or other legal requirements; (ii) assist in the prevention or detection of crime; (iii) protect the safety of any person; and (iv) establish, exercise or defend legal claims. |
The categories of data shared will vary depending on the specific circumstances surrounding the request, but it often can include:
|
| In the context of merger and acquisition, with our Affiliates or new owner(s) | We may transfer your data if we are involved, whether in whole or in part, in a merger, sale, acquisition, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, bankruptcy or other change of ownership or control. | The categories of data shared will vary based on the type of corporate transaction. It may include the entire organization data or only a specific subset such as Purchase Data. |
6. How Match Group Companies Work Together
We are part of the Match Group family of businesses.
We may share data about you with our Affiliates and they may share data about you with us, for the reasons laid out below:
- To make all Match Group platforms safer, for instance by searching for and identifying bad actors and how they operate across Match Group platforms, as well as making sure that when a bad actor is found on one Match Group platform (for instance ours), they can be banned from all.
- To assist each other, as service providers, in data processing operations, such as data hosting and maintenance, customer care, marketing and targeted advertising, analytics, machine learning development and implementation, finance and accounting, legal support, payment processing, service improvement, data security and fighting against spam, abuse, fraud and other wrongdoings.
- To suggest to you relevant and meaningful connections, by developing or improving Match Group Brands’ core recommendation systems.
- To improve your chances at building significant connections with others, we may make you visible on other Match Group services or allow you to benefit from cross-platform functionalities.
- Where and as allowed under applicable law, to better understand how people use Match Group services overall, to personalize your experience across Match Group services and to enhance marketing and advertising campaigns.
- For other legitimate business purposes including corporate / consolidated audit, analysis and reporting.

7. Cross-Border Data Transfers
Because we operate a global service, the sharing of your data laid out in Section 5 involves cross-border data transfers to our Affiliates and service providers (other third parties) in third countries that have different privacy laws. When we transfer personal data to a third-country we use appropriate mechanisms. For example, we rely on:
- Adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission or other competent authorities under applicable laws. We transfer personal data to our affiliates to perform important functions, as outlined in Section 6, by storing, accessing or otherwise processing data and to third-parties in countries with adequacy decisions for the purposes outlined in Section 5;
- Standard contract clauses issued by the European Commission or similar contractual data transfer mechanisms approved by other competent authorities under applicable laws. These contractual data transfer mechanisms are commitments between companies transferring personal data, binding them to protect the confidentiality and security of your data and ensuring adequate level of protection in third countries. We rely on such mechanisms to transfer personal data to our Affiliates to perform important functions, as outlined in Section 6, by storing, accessing or otherwise processing data, and to third parties for the purposes outlined in Section 5 in countries without adequacy decisions, such as the United States of America. Contact us for a copy.

For your protection and the protection of all of our members, we may ask you for information to verify your identity or authority to act on behalf of a member before we can answer the above requests. We wouldn’t want someone else to get in control of your data!

If you wish to receive information relating to another member, such as a copy of any messages you received from them, the other member will have to make a request themselves.
If you are a resident of Indiana, Kentucky, Rhode Island, Maryland, Tennessee, Minnesota, Delaware, Iowa, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Texas, Oregon, Montana, Virginia, Colorado, or Connecticut, USA, if we deny your privacy request, you can appeal by contacting us, and explicitly referencing “Privacy Request Appeal.” If you have concerns about the result of your appeal, you can contact the attorney general for your state.

The data protection authority you can lodge a complaint with can be that of your habitual residence, where you work or where an alleged infringement took place.
9. How Long We Retain Your Data
We want the connections you make through our service to last forever, but we keep your personal data only as long as necessary for legitimate business reasons (as laid out in Section 4) and as permitted by applicable law.
If you decide to stop using our service, you can close your account and your profile will no longer be visible to other members. Note that we will close your account automatically if you are inactive for two years.
Following account closure, we delete your data as laid out below:
- To protect the safety and security of our members, we implement a safety retention window of three months following account closure. During this period, we keep your data to investigate unlawful or harmful conducts. The retention of data during this safety retention window is based on our legitimate interest as well as that of potential third-party victims.
- We maintain limited data to comply with legal data retention obligations: in particular, we keep transaction data for ten years to comply with tax and accounting legal requirements, credit card information for the duration the user may challenge the transaction, and “traffic data” / logs for one year to comply with legal data retention obligations. We also keep records of consents members give us for five years to comply and evidence our compliance with applicable law.
- We maintain limited data on the basis of our legitimate interest: we keep customer care records and supporting data, as well as imprecise location of download/purchase, for five years in support of our safety efforts, to support our customer care decisions, enforce our rights and enable us to defend ourselves in the event of a claim; profile data for one year in anticipation of potential litigation, for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, and data necessary to prevent members who were banned from opening a new account for as long as necessary to ensure the safety and vital interests of our members.
- Finally, we maintain data on the basis of our legitimate interest where there is an outstanding or potential issue, claim or dispute requiring us to keep data in particular if we receive a valid legal subpoena or request asking us to preserve data (in which case we would need to keep the data to comply with our legal obligations) or if data would otherwise be necessary as part of legal proceedings.
Where appropriate and as legally permitted, we may maintain and use data that, by itself, cannot identify or be attributed specifically to you for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to improve our service and create new features, technologies, and services, including through machine learning, and keep Match Group services safe.
