We collect only what Amorify needs to help you meet people nearby, we store it in Canada, and we never sell it. This policy explains what we collect, why, who can see it, and how to control it. It is written to meet Quebec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Law 25) and Canada's PIPEDA.
1. Who we are
Amorify is operated by Image and Blend, 8005 Avon Road, Montreal West, Quebec, Canada.
Person in charge of the protection of personal information: Baris Saridede · [PRIVACY EMAIL]. Contact this person for any question, request or complaint about your personal information.
This policy applies to the Amorify iOS app and related services. Read it together with our Terms of Use.
2. What we collect and why
| Information | Where it comes from | Why we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Name and email address | You, or Apple / Google when you sign in with them | Create and secure your account, contact you about it |
| Email verification code and password (stored hashed) | You, if you sign up with email | Confirm your email and let you sign in |
| Date of birth | You | Confirm you are 18+, show your age |
| Gender and who you are interested in | You | Show you to, and show you, compatible people |
| Photos (3 to 6) | You | Your profile. Photos are resized on your phone and their location data (EXIF) is removed before upload |
| Profile details: bio, relationship goal, interests, languages, answers to prompts | You | Your profile and filters |
| Habits: smoking, alcohol, drug use (optional) | You | Your profile and filters |
| Location | Your phone, with your permission | Show people nearby. Stored rounded to about 1 km; others see only whole-kilometre distance |
| Likes, passes, Super Likes, matches | Your use of the App | Run Discover, matches and limits |
| Messages and message requests | You and the people you talk to | Deliver your conversations |
| Blocks and reports | You | Keep members safe, review reports |
| Activity: last active time, hours of use | Your use of the App | Online status (if shown), service statistics |
| Settings: theme, language, notifications, ad preference | You | Apply your choices |
| Premium status and subscription dates | Apple, when you subscribe | Unlock Premium. We never receive your card details |
| Push notification token (when enabled) | Your phone | Send notifications you turned on |
Sensitive information. Your gender and preferences can reveal your sexual orientation, and the habits section can reveal drug use. Under Quebec law these are sensitive. We collect them only with your express consent, given during sign-up, and you can edit or remove them at any time. Habits are optional.
We do not collect your contacts, your posts on other services, biometric data, or precise location history. We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects about you.
3. What other members can see
- Your profile: first name, age, photos, distance in whole kilometres, relationship goal, bio, interests, languages, habits and prompt answers you filled in. Your email address and exact date of birth are never shown.
- Online status: whether you were recently active, unless you hide it in Settings.
- Likes: free members who you liked see only a blurred photo and your first name; Premium members see your profile.
- Messages: only the people you are matched with, or to whom you send a message request.
Use "Preview my profile" in the App to see exactly what others see.
We never sell or rent your personal information, and we never share it with other members beyond what is listed above. We share it outside Amorify only with the service providers in section 4, when required by law or a valid legal order, to protect someone's life or safety, or as part of a merger or sale of the business (in which case this policy continues to apply).
4. Service providers and where your data is stored
Your account data, profile, photos and messages are stored on servers in Canada (Central region), hosted by Supabase. We use these providers, each bound by contract to use your data only to provide their service to us:
| Provider | What they do | Data involved |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Database, file storage, sign-in | All account and App data, stored in Canada |
| Apple | Sign in with Apple, App Store payments, push notifications | Sign-in identifiers, subscription status, push token |
| Sign in with Google | Sign-in identifiers | |
| [EMAIL PROVIDER] | Sends verification codes and account emails | Email address |
| [AD PROVIDER, e.g. Google AdMob] — free accounts only | Shows ads in Discover | Device advertising identifier, only if you allow tracking; otherwise non-personalised ads |
Some providers or their support teams may be located outside Quebec, including in the United States. Before any such transfer, we assess whether the information will receive adequate protection, as Quebec law requires. Information held outside Canada may be accessible to authorities under local law.
5. How long we keep it, and how we protect it
Retention. We keep your information while your account is open. When you delete your account in Settings, your profile, photos, likes, matches and messages are deleted from our active systems right away and from backups within [30] days. We keep a limited record longer only where needed:
- reports, moderation decisions and the evidence attached to them: up to [1 year] after the decision, to handle appeals and prevent banned members from returning;
- data we must keep by law (for example, tax records): for the period the law requires.
Security. Access is controlled on our servers, not in the App: other members can reach only the data listed in section 3. Connections are encrypted, location is rounded before storage, and photo metadata is removed on your phone. No method is perfectly secure; if a confidentiality incident creates a risk of serious injury, we will notify you and Quebec's Commission d'accès à l'information as the law requires.
Staff access. Only a small number of authorised Amorify staff, signed in with two-factor authentication, can see member data, and only to moderate the service. They may review a reported profile, its photos, and recent messages between the people involved in a report, and newly uploaded photos. Every such access is logged.
6. Your rights and choices
You can, at any time:
| Right | How |
|---|---|
| See and correct your information | Edit your profile in the App, or write to us |
| Get a copy, in a structured, commonly used format | Settings → Download my data |
| Delete your account and data | Settings → Delete account |
| Withdraw consent (e.g. location, optional habits, notifications) | Edit your profile or your phone's settings; some features may stop working |
| Hide your online status | Settings → Show my online status |
| Limit ad personalisation | Settings → Ad preferences, or iOS tracking settings |
| Ask how your information is used, or ask us to stop disseminating it | Write to [PRIVACY EMAIL] |
We answer written requests within 30 days, free of charge. We may ask you to confirm your identity first. Depending on where you live (for example in the EU, UK or Türkiye under GDPR or KVKK), you may have similar or additional rights; contact us to use them.
Minors. Amorify is only for adults 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18; if we learn we have, we delete the account.
Changes. If we change this policy in a meaningful way, we will tell you in the App before the change takes effect, and ask for your consent again where the law requires.
Questions and complaints. Contact Baris Saridede, [PRIVACY EMAIL], 8005 Avon Road, Montreal West, Quebec, Canada. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can complain to the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec or the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
