Welcome to VibeLink's Privacy Policy. This Policy is provided and managed by VibeLink Team ("VibeLink," "we," "us," or "our"). We are dedicated to safeguarding your privacy and being transparent about our practices.
This Policy governs websites, applications, events, and other services operated by VibeLink (together, the "Services"). It does not apply to services offered by third parties. When you encounter links, content, or services from third parties through VibeLink, we advise you to evaluate them carefully and review their privacy policies before sharing any personal information.
We use straightforward language to help you understand this Policy and make informed decisions. If you do not agree with these terms, please refrain from using our Services.
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights under applicable privacy laws:
Right to know what personal information we process and the purposes of such processing.
Right to access a copy of your personal data held by us.
Right to correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
Right to request deletion of your personal data in circumstances permitted by law.
Right to restrict the processing of your personal data in limited scenarios.
Right to data portability, which allows you to obtain a machine-readable copy of your data for transfer to another service provider.
Right to object to the processing of your personal data (e.g., processing based on legitimate interests or for marketing purposes).
Rights related to automated decision-making, including the right to human intervention in relevant cases.
Specific rights may vary by jurisdiction. You can access and edit most of your profile information directly by logging into your VibeLink account. To exercise other rights listed above, please contact our Data Protection Officer. We may need to verify your identity before responding to your request. If you have unresolved concerns after contacting us, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
We implement a comprehensive set of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information from misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security measures include regular system vulnerability scans, monitoring for potential cyberattacks, and continuous updates to our protective protocols to adapt to emerging risks.
While we strive to provide the highest level of security for your data, no method of electronic transmission or data storage is completely infallible. In the event of a data breach that may affect your personal information, we will comply with all applicable legal reporting obligations, take immediate steps to mitigate potential harm, and notify you promptly if required by law to inform you of the potential impacts and available remedies.
Please note that we are not responsible for the security of data collected, stored, or processed by third parties. If you encounter third-party content or services through our Services that pose privacy or security risks, please contact us immediately.
We collect information when you create an account or use our Services. This includes details you provide directly, information from third-party social networks, technical and behavioral data related to your usage, content from your messages, and—with your permission—contacts from your mobile device’s phone book. Below, we explain the types and sources of this information in detail.
When using our Services, you may choose to share the following information:
Account Information : When you download VibeLink and create an account, we may collect your nickname, profile photo, phone number, and login credentials for connected third-party accounts (e.g., Google, Facebook, or Apple ID).
Profile Details : After registering, you may add additional information to your profile, such as age, gender identity, date of birth, location, sexual orientation, preferences, height, weight, and supplementary photos. Please exercise caution when sharing this information, as it will be publicly visible to other users unless you delete your account. To add certain content (e.g., photos), you may need to grant us access to your device’s camera or photo album.
Shared Content : This refers to comments, photos, videos, and other materials you post through the Services. The visibility of such content (public or limited) depends on where it is shared within the platform. You can delete most of your shared content at any time via your account settings. You must not upload or share content about others without their explicit permission.
Communications with Us : If you contact our customer support team (e.g., to ask questions, report issues, or seek assistance), we will collect the information you provide during the interaction. We may monitor or record these communications for training purposes and to ensure the quality of our customer service.
We may receive information about you from the following sources:
Other users of our Services (e.g., through customer service reports or feedback regarding interactions with you).
Third-party services, including advertising partners, data providers, and analytics providers, in accordance with applicable laws and agreements.
When you access or use our Services, we or authorized third parties may automatically collect the following data:
Usage Data : Information about your activities on the Services, such as login times and frequencies, features you use, search queries you enter, clicks you make, and interactions with other users (e.g., connection requests sent/received, message timestamps, and message volume).
Device Information : Details about the device you use to access the Services, including unique device identifiers, IP address, MAC address, user agent string, mobile network carrier, time zone, device model, operating system version, language settings, network type (e.g., Wi-Fi or cellular), screen resolution, and technical performance data (e.g., battery life, app loading times, and latency).
Message Content and Metadata : When you use our messaging features, we collect and process the content of your messages, as well as metadata associated with the messages (e.g., send/receive times, participant identities, and message status). We strongly advise against sharing sensitive information (e.g., financial details, health information, or confidential personal data) in messages.
Other Information : With your explicit consent, we may collect additional data, such as photos or videos you choose to share through specific features of the Services.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device to ensure the proper operation of the Services and enhance your user experience. They typically contain unique identifiers, site names, and alphanumeric codes. Our Services may use cookies and similar technologies (e.g., web beacons, pixels) to collect non-personal information, unless local law classifies identifiers like IP addresses as personal information.
We and our authorized partners use these technologies for the following purposes:
Understand app usage patterns, frequency of use, in-app events, performance metrics, and download sources.
Analyze industry trends, manage and optimize our website and app, track user behavior, and gather demographic insights.
Deliver personalized advertisements based on your browsing history and interests.
We only use cookies and similar technologies for the purposes outlined above. You can manage or delete cookies through your device or app settings. Additionally, you can opt out of interest-based advertising by clearing your cookies or resetting your device’s advertising identifier.
We only process your personal information when we have a valid legal basis under applicable data protection laws. The legal grounds for processing and corresponding uses of your information are as follows:
We process your information to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, including:
Providing and maintaining the Services you request.
Enabling communications between you and other users.
Verifying your age to ensure compliance with our Terms of Use and applicable laws.
Enforcing the terms of our Terms of Use.
Where our legitimate business interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms, we may process your information for the following purposes:
Notify you about VibeLink updates, new features, and service improvements.
Conduct research and analysis on Service usage to enhance user experience and optimize our offerings.
Prevent fraud, detect and address security breaches, protect the integrity of the Services, and enforce our legal rights.
Store, host, and back up your information to ensure the continuity of the Services.
Resolve disputes, respond to legal claims, and comply with legal or regulatory proceedings.
We process your information based on your explicit consent for the following purposes:
Personalizing the Services and content (e.g., tailored recommendations) to match your preferences.
Complying with specific legal or regulatory requirements that mandate consent for processing.
You may withdraw your consent at any time (where applicable) by updating your account settings or contacting our Data Protection Officer. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
We do not share your personal information with third parties except as described below:
Affiliates : We may share your information within our corporate family (e.g., parent companies, subsidiaries, or sister companies) for legitimate and clearly defined purposes. Such sharing is limited to what is necessary to provide and improve the Services.
Authorized Third-Party Partners : We share the minimum necessary information with trusted third-party partners (e.g., technical service providers, cloud storage providers, marketing partners, and SDK providers) to support the operation of the Services and enhance your user experience. We require these partners to implement appropriate confidentiality and security measures consistent with this Policy and applicable laws, and to use your information only for the purposes for which it is shared.
Non-Personal and Aggregated Data : We may share aggregated, non-personal data with third parties (e.g., researchers, advertisers, or business partners) for analytics, market research, or business insights. This data is anonymized and cannot be used to identify you individually (e.g., trends in Service usage across different age groups).
Business Transfers : In the event of a merger, acquisition, consolidation, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or other corporate restructuring, your personal information may be transferred to the acquiring or successor entity. We will ensure that the receiving entity adheres to the terms of this Policy and continues to protect your information with the same level of security.
Your personal information is currently stored on servers located in the United States. With your authorization and in compliance with applicable laws, we may transfer your personal data to other countries or regions for processing (e.g., to our affiliates or third-party service providers located abroad). Some of these jurisdictions may have privacy laws that differ from those in your country of residence. However, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your information is protected in accordance with this Policy and applicable data protection laws. If you would like more details about these safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses), please contact us.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to provide the Services, meet contractual obligations, pursue legitimate business interests, or comply with legal requirements.
When you delete your VibeLink account, we will take reasonable steps to remove your personal information from our active systems and make it non-identifiable. However, please note that information you have shared with other users (e.g., messages, photos, or comments) may remain on their devices or in their accounts and cannot be deleted by us.
In certain cases, we may retain your data for a longer period to comply with legal obligations (e.g., tax, audit, or regulatory requirements). Despite our efforts to delete data promptly, technical limitations (e.g., backup systems) may prevent the immediate removal of all copies of your information. After you cease using the Services, we may store aggregated, anonymized data for indefinite periods for research, analytics, or business purposes.
Our Services are not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18 (or the higher minimum age specified by the laws of your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from minors. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account and provided personal information without parental or guardian consent, we will take immediate steps to terminate the account and delete the minor’s personal information, unless required by law to retain it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, technological advancements, or legal/regulatory requirements. When we make updates, we will post the revised Policy on our website or notify you through the Services (e.g., via in-app notification or email). The "last updated" date at the top of the Policy will be revised to indicate the effective date of the changes.
Your continued use of the Services after the revised Policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If the changes involve significant new uses or disclosures of your personal information that are not consistent with the original Policy, we will seek your explicit consent before implementing such changes, as required by applicable law.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about this Privacy Policy or our data processing practices, please contact our Data Protection Officer at: yofastdollar@gmail.com.
We strive to respond to all legitimate inquiries within 15–30 business days after verifying your identity. For complex issues, we may require additional information to provide a comprehensive response, and we will keep you informed of the progress.
