1. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you create or maintain a SAVA account, we may collect information such as your name, email address, date of birth or age, gender, dating preferences, authentication information, account settings, and profile information.
If you sign in using Apple, Google, or another supported authentication provider, we receive information made available by that provider according to your permissions.
Profile Information
You may provide information including profile photos, biography, interests, preferences, responses to SAVA questions, and other information you choose to provide.
Some information you voluntarily provide may reveal sensitive information. You should only provide information you are comfortable sharing through the service.
Photos and Media
SAVA processes photos and other media you upload to provide profile, discovery, safety, moderation, and verification functionality.
Depending on the feature, automated systems may analyze profile media to identify non-sensitive visual characteristics necessary to operate features such as visual discovery.
SAVA does not intend to infer sensitive characteristics such as race, ethnicity, religion, health conditions, political beliefs, or sexual orientation from a person's appearance for visual-search purposes.
Photo Verification
SAVA may offer or require Photo Verification to help determine whether the person using an account corresponds to the person shown in the account's profile photos.
Photo Verification may involve processing a live selfie, short video, selected frames, facial features, or mathematical representations of facial characteristics.
Photo Verification is not government identity verification unless SAVA explicitly states otherwise.
Temporary verification media will be handled according to our applicable retention procedures and deleted when it is no longer necessary for the verification process, subject to security, fraud-prevention, and legal requirements.
Where biometric information receives special protection under applicable law, SAVA will provide additional disclosures and obtain consent where required before such processing occurs.
Location Information
With your permission, SAVA may process location information to provide features such as distance-based discovery, nearby recommendations, and Nights planning.
Depending on your permissions and the feature being used, this may include approximate or precise device location.
We may also derive an approximate location from information such as your IP address.
SAVA does not publicly display your precise live location to other users unless a feature clearly explains that sharing and you choose to use it.
You can manage location permissions through your device settings.
Behavioral and Matching Information
SAVA may process your responses to behavioral questions, preferences, Likes, Super Likes, Passes, Find activity, invitations, matches, and other interactions to operate and personalize the service.
Automated systems may use this information to recommend potentially relevant people or content.
Recommendations are not objective judgments about people and do not guarantee compatibility.
Find
Find allows users to describe visible characteristics or aesthetics they are interested in and discover potentially relevant SAVA profiles.
To provide Find, SAVA may process eligible profile photos into searchable representations, including non-sensitive visual tags or mathematical embeddings.
Find is not intended to determine sensitive characteristics such as race, ethnicity, religion, health status, political affiliation, or sexual orientation from someone's appearance.
The description used by one person to discover another person through Find is not disclosed to the discovered person unless SAVA explicitly provides otherwise.
Nights
Nights helps users participate in small real-world social meetups.
When you use Nights, SAVA may process information necessary to organize the meetup, including availability, preferred areas, venue preferences, participation status, and other planning information you provide.
Relevant planning information may be shared with the Night host or participants where necessary to organize the meetup.
SAVA seeks to limit this sharing to information reasonably necessary for the Night experience.
Messages and Communications
When you communicate with another person through SAVA, we process those communications to provide messaging functionality.
We may also process communications where reasonably necessary for safety, moderation, abuse prevention, fraud detection, investigation of reports, legal compliance, or enforcement of our rules.
Device and Usage Information
We may automatically collect information including device type, operating system, application version, IP address, language, session information, crash information, security events, and interactions with SAVA.
