Privacy Policy

Last updated 15 August 2026

At Yarify, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. Yarify is a dating and social discovery platform designed for adults who want to meet new people, communicate, and build meaningful connections. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, when we may share it, and the choices available to you. By creating an account or using Yarify, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

When you create and use a Yarify account, we may collect information that you voluntarily provide to us. This may include your name or display name, date of birth, gender, mobile number, email address, login information, profile photographs, videos, city, education, profession, interests, hobbies, dating preferences, matching preferences and other information that you choose to include in your profile. We may also collect information that you provide when contacting customer support, participating in surveys, promotions or contests, submitting feedback, making purchases or communicating with other users through Yarify.

We encourage users not to include highly sensitive personal information in their profiles or conversations unless they are comfortable sharing it. You should never publicly disclose information such as passwords, OTPs, bank details, financial information or your exact home address.

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you access or use Yarify, we may automatically collect certain technical and usage information. This may include your IP address, device type, operating system, browser or application information, device identifiers, app version, login activity, features used, crash reports, diagnostic information, language, time zone and information about how you interact with the platform. We may use this information to operate, secure, maintain and improve Yarify.

3. Location Information

Yarify may use location information to provide location-based discovery, matching and other features. Depending on your device permissions and the features you use, location information may be obtained through GPS, Wi-Fi, mobile networks or other permitted technologies. You can control location permissions through your device settings. If you disable location access, certain Yarify features may not function properly. Yarify does not require users to publicly display their exact home address, and we strongly recommend that users do not share their home address, live location or other highly sensitive location information with people they meet through the platform.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to create and maintain your account, provide matching and discovery features, enable communication between matched users, process subscriptions and payments, provide customer support and deliver the features and services offered by Yarify. We may also use your information to understand your preferences and activity so that we can improve recommendations and help you discover potentially compatible users.

We may analyze information about how users interact with Yarify to improve the platform, develop new features, identify technical problems, measure performance and understand user behavior. We may also process information to detect spam, fake accounts, scams, fraudulent activity, harassment, inappropriate behavior and other violations of our policies.

5. Women's Safety and Privacy

Yarify is designed with a strong focus on women's safety, privacy, dignity and control. We may process account information, reports, user activity and other relevant information when necessary to investigate harassment, stalking, threats, impersonation, scams, inappropriate behavior or other violations of our policies.

Yarify provides users with safety and interaction controls such as blocking, reporting and unmatching, where available. No user is required to continue a conversation, accept a match or meet another person offline. Yarify has zero tolerance for harassment, threats, stalking, blackmail, unwanted sexual content, non-consensual sharing of intimate content, financial scams, impersonation or repeated unwanted contact. Depending on the seriousness of a violation, Yarify may restrict, suspend or permanently terminate an account and may cooperate with law-enforcement authorities where legally required or appropriate.

6. Messages and User Content

Yarify processes information that you voluntarily submit through the platform, including messages, photographs, videos, profile information, reports and other content. This information may be processed to provide communication features, investigate complaints, enforce our policies, prevent abuse and maintain platform security.

Users should exercise caution when communicating with people they meet online. Never share passwords, OTPs, bank details, financial information, home addresses or other sensitive information with someone you have met through Yarify.

7. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information simply because you create a Yarify account. However, information may be shared in limited circumstances where necessary to operate, maintain, improve or protect the platform.

Information that you voluntarily place on your public or discoverable profile may be visible to other Yarify users according to the platform's features and your privacy settings. Please understand that once information is shared with another user, that person may copy, save, screenshot or share it outside Yarify, and Yarify cannot control what another person does with information that they have independently obtained.

We may also share information with trusted service providers that help us operate Yarify, including providers of cloud hosting, databases, analytics, customer support, payment processing, email or SMS services, push notifications, security, fraud prevention and technical infrastructure. Such providers should receive only the information reasonably necessary to provide their services and should be subject to appropriate contractual or legal obligations.

8. Legal and Safety Disclosures

Yarify may disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to valid legal requests, cooperate with lawful government or law-enforcement requests, investigate suspected fraud or illegal activity, protect the safety of users, protect Yarify's systems and property, or enforce our Terms and policies.

We may also disclose information when necessary to protect our legal rights or the rights, safety or property of our users, employees, service providers or other relevant parties.

9. Payments and Subscriptions

If you purchase a Yarify subscription or another paid feature, payment information may be processed by the applicable payment provider or app-store platform. Yarify may receive transaction-related information necessary to confirm payments, activate subscriptions, manage billing, process refunds and prevent payment fraud. Where payment information is handled directly by a third-party payment provider, the provider's own privacy policy may also apply.

10. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Yarify may use cookies, software development kits, pixels and similar technologies on its website or applications. These technologies may help us keep you signed in, remember your preferences, improve functionality, understand usage patterns, measure performance, identify security issues and improve marketing activities where applicable. You may be able to control certain cookie and device permissions through your browser or device settings.

11. Advertising and Marketing

Where applicable, Yarify may use advertising and marketing technologies to promote our services and understand the effectiveness of our campaigns. We may use aggregated, statistical or appropriately protected information for these purposes. Where applicable law requires consent for a particular marketing activity, we will seek the appropriate consent. You may also have options to control certain promotional communications.

12. Account Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss or alteration. However, no internet-based platform can guarantee absolute security. Users are responsible for protecting their own account credentials and should notify Yarify immediately if they believe their account has been compromised. We may temporarily restrict an account or certain features if we identify suspicious activity or a security risk.

13. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights relating to your personal information, including the ability to access information associated with your account, correct inaccurate information, update your profile, request deletion of your account or certain information, withdraw consent where processing is based on consent and raise concerns regarding the processing of your information. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests. Some information may need to be retained where required by law or where necessary for fraud prevention, safety, dispute resolution, security or enforcement of our policies.

14. Account Deletion

You may request to deactivate or delete your Yarify account through available account settings or by contacting our support team. When an account is deleted, we will handle the associated personal information according to our retention practices and applicable law. Certain information may remain temporarily in backups or may be retained where reasonably necessary for legal compliance, fraud prevention, safety investigations, dispute resolution, security or enforcement of our Terms.

Deleting your Yarify account does not necessarily remove information that another user may already have copied, saved, downloaded or shared outside Yarify.

15. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including providing our services, maintaining safety and security, complying with legal obligations and resolving disputes. The retention period may vary depending on the type of information, the purpose for which it was collected, whether your account remains active, legal requirements and security considerations.

Information associated with banned or restricted accounts may be retained where reasonably necessary to prevent repeat abuse, fraud, harassment or other safety violations.

16. Children's Privacy

Yarify is strictly for users aged 18 years and above. We do not knowingly permit anyone under the age of 18 to create or maintain an account. If we discover that an account belongs to a person under 18, we may immediately suspend or terminate that account and take appropriate action regarding the associated information. If you believe that a person under 18 is using Yarify, please report the account to us immediately.

17. Third-Party Services

Yarify may use or integrate with third-party services such as payment providers, analytics services, authentication providers, hosting companies, advertising platforms and other technology providers. When you interact with these services, their own terms and privacy policies may apply. Yarify is not responsible for privacy practices of third-party services that it does not own or control.

18. International Data Processing

Depending on the infrastructure and service providers used by Yarify, your information may be processed or stored in locations outside your state or country. Where applicable, Yarify will take reasonable steps to ensure that such processing is carried out in accordance with applicable law and appropriate safeguards.

19. Respecting Other Users' Privacy

Users must respect the privacy of people they meet through Yarify. You must not copy another person's profile for unauthorized purposes, publish another user's private information, distribute another user's photographs or videos without appropriate authorization, publicly share private conversations for harassment or exploitation, attempt to locate another person using information obtained from Yarify, or use another user's information for stalking, harassment, discrimination, scams or unauthorized commercial purposes. Violations may result in account suspension or permanent termination.

20. Changes to This Privacy Policy

Yarify may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, technology, security practices, business operations or applicable legal requirements. When material changes are made, we may provide appropriate notice through the Yarify application, website or other available communication channels. The updated Privacy Policy will become effective from the date specified at the beginning of the revised policy.
