Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly when creating your account and using our services. This includes your name, email address, phone number, date of birth, photographs, location data, religious denomination, and relationship preferences.

We also collect usage information automatically, such as how you interact with the app, your device details, IP address, and communication patterns within the platform.

When you grant permission, we access your camera and photo library to enable profile photos and identity verification.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to provide and enhance our connection services, helping you find meaningful relationships and Christian friendships with others who share your values and faith.

Your data helps us verify user authenticity, maintain platform safety, send relevant notifications about matches and messages, process subscription payments, enforce our community guidelines, and provide responsive customer support.

3. Information Sharing

Your profile information is visible to other Nuruni users for matching purposes. This visibility is essential to how our service works.

We work with trusted service providers who help us operate the platform, including our database provider and payment processors. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality agreements.

We may share information when legally required or when necessary to protect user safety. We do not sell your personal data to third parties under any circumstances.

4. Data Security

We implement industry standard encryption and security measures to protect your personal information. Your data is stored on secure servers with restricted access controls.

While we take extensive precautions, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We continuously work to improve our security practices.

5. Your Privacy Rights

You have the right to access and receive a copy of your personal data. You can update or correct inaccurate information at any time through your account settings.

You may request deletion of your account and associated data. You can also export your data in a portable format and opt out of marketing communications.

Residents of the European Union and United Kingdom have additional rights under GDPR, including the right to restrict processing and object to certain uses of your data.

6. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve app functionality, remember your preferences, and understand how users interact with our platform.

You can manage cookie preferences through your device settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some features of the app.

7. Age Requirements

Nuruni is designed exclusively for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18 years of age.

If we discover that we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, we will promptly delete that information.

8. Data Retention

We keep your personal data only as long as necessary to provide our services and fulfill the purposes described in this policy.

Profile information is retained until you delete your account or after 2 years of inactivity. Messages are kept for 3 years from the date of your last message. Verification records are maintained for 7 years to comply with legal requirements. Analytics data is anonymized and retained for up to 2 years.

You can request data deletion at any time through your account settings or by emailing [email protected].

9. International Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than where you reside. When we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third party services you access through our platform.

11. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons.
