Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

foodsdates ("we", "us", "our") operates a dating service that matches people over shared food preferences, restaurants, and gastronomic experiences. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle personal information when you use our website, join our waitlist, or contact us.

2. Information we collect

We collect information you give us directly, including:

• Account and profile details such as your name, email address, and photos.
• Your taste profile — favorite dishes, cuisines, restaurants, spice tolerance, and dietary preferences.
• Messages and content you share within the service.
• Waitlist and contact-form submissions, including your email and any message you send.

We also collect limited technical information automatically, such as device type, browser, and general location, to keep the service secure and working well.

3. How we use your information

We use your information to create and improve matches, recommend restaurants for your dates, respond to your messages, keep the service safe, and let you know when foodsdates opens in your city. We never sell your personal information.

4. How we share information

Parts of your profile are visible to potential matches, as you'd expect on a dating service. We may share limited data with trusted service providers who help us operate (for example, hosting and email delivery), always under confidentiality obligations. We may also disclose information when required by law.

5. Your choices and rights

You can access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time, and you can unsubscribe from our emails using the link in any message. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights over your data. To make a request, email us at privacy@foodsdates.com.

6. Data retention and security

We keep your information only as long as needed to provide the service and meet our legal obligations. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, though no system is completely secure.

7. Children

foodsdates is intended for people 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify you directly.
