1. Introduction
Welcome to Hubba BaBa. Your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you use our mobile application and services. By using Hubba BaBa, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide and improve our services to you:
- Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, phone number, date of birth, gender, and password.
- Profile Information: You may choose to provide additional information for your profile, such as photos, bio, interests, height, education, and lifestyle choices.
- Verification Data: Optional email verification to validate your account and optional selfie verification to earn a verified profile badge. Both verification options are entirely optional. See Section 3 below for full details.
- Usage Data: We automatically collect information about your activity on our app, including matches, messages, swipes, and interaction with other users.
- Device Information: We collect hardware model, operating system, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.
- Location Data: With your consent, we collect your precise geolocation to show you potential matches nearby.
3. Account Verification & Biometric Information
A. Email Verification (Optional Account Validation)
Email verification is optional. If you choose to verify your email address, a secure validation link or one-time code is sent to your registered email address. Verifying your email helps confirm account ownership, simplifies password recovery, and adds an extra layer of account validation. You can skip email verification at any time and still access and use the app.
B. Biometric Information (Verification Selfie — Optional)
Selfie verification is optional. If you choose to verify your profile, we handle face data as follows:
- What we collect: A single selfie photo taken with your device’s camera at the moment of verification. We do not use Face ID or TrueDepth data, and we do not create or store face templates, facial geometry or any other biometric identifier.
- How we use it: Solely to check that the selfie shows a real person who matches your main profile photo, so that we can display a verified badge on your profile and prevent fake accounts and impersonation. It is never used for advertising, profiling or any other purpose.
- Sharing: The selfie is processed on our behalf by Google LLC (Gemini API), acting as our service provider under terms that prohibit use of the data to train or improve its AI models. We do not sell face data and we do not share it with any other third party.
- Storage and retention: The selfie is uploaded over an encrypted connection to our cloud storage solely to perform the check, and it is deleted immediately once the check is completed. We keep only the result (verified or not verified) on your account. Google may retain API inputs transiently, for up to approximately 55 days, solely for abuse and safety monitoring, after which they are deleted.
- Your choices: You can skip selfie verification and still use the app. You can delete your account at any time (Profile → Delete Account), and you can contact us at [email protected] with any question or request about your data.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for various purposes:
- To create and manage your account, including verifying your email and validating account access.
- To provide our matchmaking services and connect you with other users.
- To verify your identity and maintain a safe, trusted environment.
- To communicate with you regarding updates, security alerts, and support messages.
- To analyze usage trends and improve our app’s features and functionality.
- To enforce our Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.
5. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- With Other Users: Your profile information (photos, bio, first name, age) is visible to other users to facilitate matches.
- With Service Providers & App Stores: We share information with trusted third-party vendors who help us operate our app, including cloud hosting, email delivery and validation services, identity verification providers (Google LLC Gemini API), and app marketplace billing platforms (Apple App Store and Google Play Store for processing subscription purchases and renewals).
- For Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal processes, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Hubba BaBa, our users, or others.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
