We undertand that this is especially important when using a social-networking or dating service. Our Privacy Policy is similar to our Terms of Use, it's short, concise and you don't require a qualification in law to understand it! If you're at all unclear about any of the points below then feel free to contact us.
Section 1: Your Profile
- Your profile is visible to the public (and search engines such as google) unless you opt-out via the privacy preferences page which is accessible via your Account Dashboard.
- Your can remove your profile from the site at any time by visiting the page 'Remove Your Account' which is available on your Account Dashboard.
Section 2: Your Password

- We will never pass or sell your email address on to a third party for marketing reasons. We hate junk mail as much as you do.
Section 4: Your Payment Details

- When we use the phrase 'Your Data' we mean your profile-information, message history, contact-information and all other information our system has collected as a result of your interactions with our service.
- 'Your Data' will never be given (or sold) to a third-party unless the third party is the police and they have requested it or you are in breach of our Terms and Use, or where we are required to by law.
Section 5: Data Security
- We endeavour to take all reasonable steps to protect 'Your Data' including maintaining a firewall, staying current with software & operating system security patches and encrypting all information where feasable.
