Hey there! Welcome to Fateda's Privacy Policy.
We know reading a privacy policy might not be everyone's idea of a good time, but hear us out. We put a lot of effort into making this policy as clear and engaging as possible, because we actually want you to read it! Think of us as your digital wingmate, here to guide you through the ins and outs of what data we collect, and why and how we use it. So get cozy, grab your beverage of choice, and let's dive into the world of personal data together.
This Privacy Policy applies from October 10, 2025. The previous version, available here, applies until then.

2. Where This Privacy Policy Applies
This Privacy Policy applies to websites, apps, events and other services we operate under the Fateda brand. Whether you're searching for your soulmate, joining us at one of our events, or using any of our other awesome services, this 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.
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. We may also collect data from third parties, like when you access the service through an account you have on another platform (e.g., Facebook, 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
| Categories | Description |
|---|---|
| Account Data | When you create an account, you give us basic information for your account to be set up such as your phone number, email address, and date of birth. |
| Profile Data | When you complete your profile, you share additional details about you, such as your gender, interests, preferences, approximate location, etc. Some of this data may be considered sensitive or special in certain countries, such as details about sexual orientation, sexual life, health, or political beliefs. 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 may post photos, videos, audio, text and other types of content, such as your chats with other members. |
| Purchase Data | When you make a purchase, we keep the details of the transaction (e.g., what you purchased, the date of the transaction, and the price). The exact data depends on the payment method you choose. When you pay directly with us (rather than through a platform such as iOS or Android), you provide your debit or credit card number or other financial info. |
Data generated or automatically collected
| Categories | Description |
|---|---|
| Usage Data | Using the service generates data about your activity, including how you use it (e.g., when you logged in, features you've been using, actions taken, information shown to you, referring webpages, ads you interacted with) and how you interact with others (e.g., searching, matching, communicating). We may also receive data related to interactions you had with our ads on third party's websites or apps. |
| Technical Data | Using the service involves the collection of data from and about the device(s) you use to access our service, including hardware and software information such as IP address, device ID and type, apps settings and characteristics, app crashes, advertising IDs and identifiers associated with cookies or other technologies that may uniquely identify a device or browser. For more information about cookies, see our Cookie Policy. |
Other data we collect with your permission/consent
| Categories | Description |

| Geolocation Data | If you give us permission, we can collect your geolocation (latitude and longitude) from your device. If you decline permission, features that rely on precise geolocation may not be available to you. |
| Face Geometry Data | You may choose to participate in certain of our features like Photo Verification, or Photo and ID Verification, that involve the collection of face geometry data, which may be considered biometric data in some jurisdictions. Learn more about our verification feature and how we process your face geometry data. |
| ID Data | You may provide us with a copy of your government-issued ID to help us check that you're who you say you are. |
