Privacy Policy

Information you provide directly:

• Account information — email address, password (stored hashed, never in plain text), date of birth, gender, and the type of relationship you are looking for.
• Profile information — display name, photos, bio, languages, occupation, education, height, weight, country of origin, country of residence, city, and interests.
• Verification information — in some cases we may ask for a short selfie video to confirm a profile is genuine.
• Payment information — if you buy a paid subscription, our payment processor handles your card details; we keep only a token and the transaction history, never your full card number.
• Communications — messages you send to other members and to our support team.
• Preferences and behavior — your search filters, who you have liked, blocked or favorited, and your notification preferences.

Information we collect automatically:

• Device and connection data — IP address, device type, operating system, browser, language settings, time zone, and crash logs.
• Usage data — pages you visit, features you use, and approximate time spent on each.
• Approximate location — derived from your IP address, used to show nearby members and to comply with regional laws. We do not collect precise GPS coordinates unless you explicitly enable that on a mobile app.

Information we receive from third parties:

• Social login providers (Google, Facebook) if you choose to sign in with them — limited to your name, email, and profile picture.
• Fraud-prevention services that help us detect spam, scams, and abusive behavior.

• Provide the Service — create and maintain your account, show your profile to other members, deliver messages, run searches.
• Match you with compatible members based on the preferences and behavior you share with us.
• Keep the platform safe — detect fake profiles, scams, harassment, and prohibited content. We may review reported messages and profiles.
• Communicate with you — send transactional emails, notify you of activity on your account, respond to support requests.
• Improve and personalize the Service — analytics about how members use the site, A/B testing of new features, performance monitoring.
• Process payments if you subscribe to a paid plan, including billing and refunds where applicable.
• Comply with the law — respond to lawful requests from authorities, enforce our Terms of Service, defend against legal claims.

• Performance of a contract — most processing needed to deliver the Service to you.
• Your consent — for sensitive data such as sexual orientation, precise location, and marketing emails. You can withdraw consent at any time.
• Legitimate interest — for analytics, fraud prevention, and improving the Service, always weighed against your privacy rights.
• Legal obligation — to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

• With other members — your profile, photos, age, gender, city, bio, and other details you choose to display are visible to other members. Messages you send are visible to their recipient. We never share your email address, full date of birth, or precise location with other members.
• With service providers — hosting (Supabase, Vercel), email delivery, payment processors, fraud-prevention vendors, and analytics providers. These companies are contractually required to use your data only on our behalf and to protect it.
• For safety and legal reasons — we may disclose information to law enforcement, regulators, or other authorities when required by law, when we have a good-faith belief it is necessary to prevent harm, or to enforce our Terms of Service.
• In a corporate transaction — if KhmerDate is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity. We will give you notice in advance.

• Profile data, photos, and preferences are permanently deleted within 30 days.
• Messages you sent remain visible to the recipient but are no longer linked to your account.
• We may retain some information longer to comply with legal obligations (e.g., transaction records), to resolve disputes, or to prevent fraud and abuse (e.g., records of banned users).

• Access — ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Correction — ask us to fix inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Deletion — ask us to delete your account and personal data, subject to legal retention requirements.
• Restriction or objection — ask us to limit or stop certain processing.
• Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
• Withdrawal of consent — for any processing that relies on consent.
• Lodge a complaint — with your local data-protection authority.

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Keep you logged in (essential).
• Remember your preferences and language (essential).
