Privacy Policy

Reveals (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is designed for anonymous reveal-based conversations between adults. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, when we share limited data, and what controls you have. If you do not agree with this Policy, please do not use Reveals.

1. Scope and Eligibility

This Policy applies to people who access or use Reveals as guests or through a registered account.

Reveals is an 18+ service. We do not knowingly allow minors to use the platform, and we may suspend or remove accounts that appear to be underage.

2. Information We Collect

A. Guest Users

Reveals supports guest mode by default. You can start using core features before creating a full account. For guests, we typically collect:

• A random guest identity and generated username, plus preferences you choose.
• Session-level activity data needed to run matching, chat, and reveal progression.
• Technical data such as IP, device/browser signals, timestamps, and rough location context.

B. Registered and Claimed Accounts

If you claim or register an account, we may collect:

• Authentication identifiers and contact credentials required for sign-in.
• Profile fields you provide, such as display name, age, preferences, and interests.
• Account settings such as language, appearance, safety, and matching preferences.
• Guest-to-account migration data when you claim an existing guest profile.

We use this information to provide account features, secure your access, and support profile continuity.

C. Chat, Reveal, and Safety Data

Reveals relies on real-time messaging and staged profile reveals. To make this work, we process operational conversation data.

• Message records, reveal-stage progression, and match state needed to deliver app functionality.
• Moderation signals such as reports, blocks, and rule-enforcement flags for safety operations.
• Connection and reliability logs used to diagnose failed chats, lag, and delivery issues.

D. Cookies, Storage, and Analytics

• We use cookies and local storage for login/session continuity, onboarding state, and app preferences.
• We analyze aggregate product usage and reliability metrics to improve performance and UX.
• We may use pseudonymous analytics events for funnel and retention measurement.

E. Payments and Billing Data

• If you purchase a plan or paid feature, payment and billing data is processed by our payment provider.
• We receive limited transaction metadata such as plan type, amount, status, and transaction identifiers.
• Reveals does not store full card numbers or complete payment instrument details on our own servers.

3. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve Reveals and its features.
• Run guest mode, account claim flow, and profile personalization.
• Power matching, real-time chat, reveal stages, and user safety controls.
• Process payments, prevent fraud, and support billing-related requests.
• Detect abuse, enforce platform rules, and investigate safety reports.
• Measure product health, retention, and feature adoption in aggregate.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms and Community Guidelines.

4. What We Do Not Do

• We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
• We do not create third-party marketing lists from your personal profile data.
• We do not build ad profiles from private conversation content.
• We do not expose full payment card details from Reveals servers.

5. When We Share Information

We may share limited information in the following situations:

• Service providers: Infrastructure, analytics, storage, communication, and support vendors may process data on our behalf under contractual limits.
• Payment providers: Purchase and subscription data is handled by the provider that processes checkout and billing.
• Safety and legal reasons: We may disclose information when required by law, legal process, or when needed to protect users, our service, or the public.
• Business transitions: If Reveals is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset transfer, data may be transferred subject to this Policy or a successor policy.

6. Children's Privacy (18+ Only)

Reveals is strictly for adults. Accounts identified as under 18 may be restricted, removed, or permanently banned under our safety rules.

• We enforce age requirements as part of account onboarding and moderation workflows.
• If you believe a minor is using Reveals, contact us at the email listed below.

7. Data Security and Retention

• We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect account, session, and messaging data.
• We retain information only as long as needed for product operations, safety enforcement, legal compliance, and legitimate business needs.
• Operational logs, report history, and anti-abuse records may be retained longer when necessary to investigate or prevent misuse.

8. Your Rights and Choices

• You can stop using Reveals at any time and end active sessions by closing the app or browser tab.
• You can update profile and account settings using available in-app controls.
• You can request account deletion, data correction, or data export where available under applicable law.
• If your account is restricted, you may contact us to request a review.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as Reveals evolves. When we do, we will update the effective date shown above.

If a change is material, we may provide additional notice in-product or on the website. Continued use after updates means the revised Policy applies.
