Harvard Dating is dedicated to helping Harvard students connect meaningfully and safely. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our app.
Profile Information. To create your profile and help you connect with other verified students, we collect basic details such as your name, university email, profile photo, gender, interests, and a short bio.
Verification & Eligibility. We may verify that you are affiliated with Harvard (e.g., via email domain or other approved methods) to maintain a trusted student community.
Location Data. We may use approximate location to suggest nearby matches and events. Your precise location is never shared publicly or with other users.
Interactions & Activity. We process information about app usage—likes, matches, messages, and reports—to improve recommendations, safety, and the overall experience.
Device & Usage Data. We collect technical data (device type, OS version, app version, diagnostics, crash logs) to ensure performance, security, and reliability.
Matching & Communication. We use your profile and preferences to show compatible profiles and enable messaging between matched users.
Personalization. Your preferences and in-app activity help us tailor recommendations and features to you.
Safety & Moderation. We may review activity to detect spam, harassment, impersonation, or violations of our Terms of Use. Reports and enforcement actions are handled confidentially.
Legal & Compliance. We may process data to comply with applicable laws, enforce our terms, and protect the rights, property, and safety of users and the service.
Privacy Settings. You can manage profile visibility and who can interact with you in the app settings.
Access, Correction, Deletion. You may request a copy of your data, ask us to correct inaccuracies, or delete your account by contacting us at support@harvarddating.app.
Opt-Out Options. You can disable location services and push notifications via your device settings. Certain features may require these permissions to function properly.
We use industry-standard security measures (including encryption in transit, access controls, and secure storage) to protect your personal information. Access is limited to authorized personnel with a legitimate need.
Harvard Dating is intended for university students aged 17+ (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate action.
Depending on your location, your information may be processed in countries with different data protection laws than your own. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, to provide the service, and to comply with legal obligations. You may request deletion at any time.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version with a revised “Last updated” date. Material changes may be communicated in-app or by email.
