This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use and share it, and the rights you have regarding your information.

We built YourSuper-Datings with the same values that drive rural communities: honesty, transparency, and trust. That commitment extends to how we handle your data. If you have questions after reading this policy, our contact information is at the bottom of this page.

5. Data Security and Storage
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information, including:

- Regular security audits and vulnerability testing
- Access controls limiting employee access to personal data on a need-to-know basis

No system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. However, we continuously monitor and update our protections to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction.
Data retention: We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. If you delete your account, we will remove your profile and personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes (such as fraud prevention records, which may be retained for up to 3 years).
