AfterGlow Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum data required to operate and improve AfterGlow.

Account Information

When you register, we collect basic account details such as your name, email address, and authentication credentials. If you purchase paid features (such as Glow Coins), payment details are processed by our payment providers.

Profile and Service Data

To provide profile, match, chat, gift, and wallet features, we process data such as profile text, selected preferences, avatar/profile photos, messages, and transaction metadata relevant to those features.

AI Feature Data

If you use the AI Profile Analyzer, we process profile draft fields and, where available, avatar image URL context to generate profile improvement suggestions.

Usage and Technical Data

• Log data such as pages visited, timestamps, feature interactions, and error events.
• Device and browser data such as IP address, browser type, OS, and device identifiers.
• Cookies and similar technologies for session continuity, preferences, and service analytics.

AfterGlow is not intended for children under applicable legal age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

2. How We Use Your Information

• Service delivery: to operate account, profile, matching, chat, gifts, wallet, and support workflows.
• AI functionality: to generate profile recommendations when explicitly requested by you.
• Security and fraud prevention: to detect abuse, unauthorized access, and policy violations.
• Analytics and improvement: to improve stability, usability, and product quality.
• Communications: service notices, support responses, legal notices, and optional product updates.
• Legal compliance: to meet regulatory, accounting, tax, and lawful request obligations.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

3. How We Share Information

We share data only in limited, necessary scenarios:

• Service providers: infrastructure, payment processing, email delivery, analytics, and security vendors acting on our instructions.
• Legal requirements: where disclosure is required by law, court order, or valid government request.
• Business transfers: merger, acquisition, reorganization, or asset sale, subject to confidentiality and continuity of protections.
• With your direction: when you request or authorize a specific integration or data transfer.

4. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain personal data only as long as needed for the purposes in this policy, unless a longer period is required by law.

• Account data is retained while your account is active and then deleted or anonymized within a reasonable period, subject to legal retention duties.
• Service content may remain available for your account history until you delete it or close your account.
• Logs and analytics data are retained for operational and security windows, then deleted or anonymized.

You may request deletion by contacting support. We will comply where legally possible.

5. Data Security

We apply commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit, restricted access controls, monitoring, and secure secret management.

No system is completely secure. You should also protect your account by using a strong password and safeguarding your credentials.

6. Third-Party APIs and Services

AfterGlow uses third-party services for parts of its functionality (such as payment processing and AI processing). Those services have their own privacy terms.

• OpenAI API: OpenAI Privacy Policy
• For payments and related processing, third-party processor terms and privacy policies apply in addition to ours.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict processing, object to processing, or request portability of your personal data.

You may also opt out of non-essential marketing communications at any time. To exercise data rights, contact us using the details below.

8. International Data Transfers

AfterGlow may process data in countries other than your own. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards for international data transfers.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material updates will be communicated through appropriate channels. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the revised policy.
