Privacy Policy

Uncover Passion is for adults only. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live, if higher) to use the service. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we learn that a minor has created an account, we will delete the account and its data promptly. If you believe a minor is using the service, contact us at support@uncoverpassion.com.

Your quiz answers are the most sensitive thing we hold. They are about intimacy — desires, fantasies, and boundaries — and we treat them as sensitive personal data. They are never sold or used for advertising. Your answers and results may be shared with the partner you choose to invite to that session, but not with other users. Answering is entirely voluntary: you can skip any question, and declining to answer never locks you out of the app.

• Account details: your name or display name, email address, password (stored only as a secure hash), and, if you sign in with Google or Apple, the basic profile information those providers share.
• Quiz answers: your responses to questions about intimate preferences, desires, and boundaries, plus any custom questions you create.
• Partner-link information: session pair codes, the email address you use to invite a partner, and which accounts are connected in a shared session.
• Payment information: if you buy the one-time Discovery Pass, Stripe, our payment processor, handles your card details. We receive the payment status, amount, date and a receipt link — never your full card number.
• Device and usage analytics: basic information such as browser type, device type, approximate region derived from IP address, pages visited, and feature usage, used in aggregate to keep the app working and improve it.
• Messages to us: anything you send us by email or through the in-app assistant.

• To operate the shared experience: we compare your answers with your linked partner's answers to show matches, areas to explore, and boundaries. By default a partner sees only what you both want (Shared interests only). Your individual answers, including maybes and boundaries, are shown to your partner only if you both choose Open discovery; either of you can switch back at any time, though that can't undo what was already seen. When a partner leaves, the session closes and a new partner can't see anything from it.
• To improve the service: we analyze usage in aggregate to fix bugs, refine questions, and build new features. We use AI in three places. Result summaries are sent the questions and how they were grouped (shared match, to explore, boundary), and your finish-screen summary is sent only the topics you answered positively. The Conversation guide is sent your message plus the wording of the question, result or draft it's helping with, never anyone's answers. Explore together plans are sent only a shared match you chose and the time, budget, place and mood you pick. Guide chats aren't saved.
• To communicate with you: account emails (confirmations, password resets), partner invitations you request, session reminders, and service updates. You can unsubscribe from non-essential emails at any time.
• To keep the service safe: to prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access, and to comply with legal obligations.

Consent: We rely on your choice when you opt in to things like analytics or marketing. You can withdraw consent at any time.

Performance of a contract: We process the information needed to run your account and deliver the quiz and matching service you request.

Legitimate interests: We use information to keep the service secure and improve it, while balancing those needs against your privacy.

Legal obligations: We process information when the law requires us to do so.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not share your quiz answers with advertisers, data brokers, or anyone other than your linked partner and the service providers described below.

We share data only with trusted providers that help us run the service, under contracts requiring them to protect it:

• Cloud hosting and database providers that store your data securely.
• Stripe, our payment processor, to handle Discovery Pass payments.
• Email delivery providers, to send account and invitation emails.
• AI processing providers, to generate result summaries, Conversation guide replies and Explore together plans.

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect the rights and safety of our users, or in connection with a merger or acquisition, in which case this policy will continue to apply.

We keep your account information and answers for as long as your account is active. Guest (trial) answers stay on your device unless you create an account. You can delete individual sessions at any time from "My Sessions".

You can take your data with you or wipe it yourself, without waiting for us. In Account settings you can download a file containing everything we hold about you — your profile, your answers, your sessions, and your email history — and you can permanently delete your account and every one of those records in the same place. Deleting your account also removes your answers from any shared session, and unlinks you from partners who no longer have an account of their own.

If you would rather ask us to do it, email privacy@uncoverpassion.com from the address on your account and we will complete deletion within 30 days. Residual copies in encrypted backups are overwritten within 90 days. We may retain limited billing records where the law requires it.

Your data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and at rest. Access to your answers is restricted at the database level so that only you and the partner linked to your session can read them. Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text. Only a small number of staff can access production systems, and only when needed to support the service. No system is perfectly secure, but we work hard to protect your information and will notify you if a breach affects your data, as required by law.

We use a small number of essential cookies and local browser storage to keep you signed in, remember your session progress, and let the app work offline. We also collect basic, privacy-friendly analytics about how the app is used. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party ad trackers. You can clear cookies and local storage in your browser settings at any time, although this will sign you out and remove unsynced trial answers.

If you are a California resident, you have the right to:

• Know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose.
• Access and receive a copy of your personal information.
• Request deletion of your personal information.
• Correct inaccurate personal information.
• Limit the use of sensitive personal information (such as information about your sex life). We only use it to provide the service you request.
• Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information — although we do not sell or share it.
• Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

We process your data on the basis of your consent (for sensitive quiz answers, which you can withdraw at any time), the performance of our contract with you, and our legitimate interest in operating and improving a secure service. You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your data, and the right to data portability — receiving your data in a structured, machine-readable format. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. Your data may be processed outside your country; where it is, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.

Email privacy@uncoverpassion.com with your request. We will verify your identity (usually by confirming the request from your account email) and respond within 30 days, or within the timeframe required by applicable law. You may use an authorized agent where the law allows.

If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above and notify you by email or in the app before the changes take effect.
