Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

NETD4TE ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our website or mobile app.

We believe privacy is not a feature. It is a foundation. As a dating platform, we understand how sensitive your information is. We take that responsibility very seriously.

2. Information We Collect

During our pre-registration phase, we only collect the information absolutely necessary to secure your spot on the waitlist:

• Name and Email Address: Collected when you join our waitlist.
• Consent Records: We record your explicit consent to our terms and confirmation of your age (18+).
• Technical Log Data: We may collect basic log data like your IP address or device type for security and fraud-prevention purposes when you submit the form.

For full transparency, here is an exact example of the data payload we save in our secure database when you pre-register:

{
  "name": "Alex",
  "email": "alex@example.com",
  "isAdult": true,
  "agreedToTerms": true,
  "consentedToMarketing": true,
  "timestamp": "August 15, 2026, 01:20:00 UTC"
}

3. How We Use Your Information

Because we are currently in the pre-registration phase, your information is used strictly to:

• Reserve your spot on the NETD4TE waitlist
• Send you important updates about our official launch and early registration benefits (e.g., 50% off your first subscription)
• Comply with legal obligations under the DPDP Act
• Prevent spam or fraudulent waitlist sign-ups

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We only share information in these cases:

• Service Providers: Trusted companies that help us run the platform (hosting, analytics, support)
• Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights
• Business Changes: If we merge, sell, or transfer our business
• With Your Permission: When you explicitly say we can share it

5. Data Security

We use industry-standard security including:

• End-to-end encryption for sensitive messages
• Secure socket layer (SSL) technology
• Regular security checks and testing
• Strict access controls for our team
• Optional two-factor authentication

6. Data Retention

We keep your personal information only as long as it's needed for the purposes described in this policy — for example, for as long as your account is active, or as long as we need it to provide you the service, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

If you pre-registered but never create a full account, we retain your name and email for the purpose of notifying you about launch, and you can ask us to delete it at any time by emailing privacy@netd4te.com. If you delete your account after launch, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we're required to keep it for legal, safety, or fraud-prevention reasons.

7. Your Rights (Including India's DPDP Act)

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your data
• Object to or limit how we use your data
• Download your data in a portable format
• Withdraw your consent at any time
• Opt out of marketing emails

If you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, these rights are provided under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If you are a California resident, you have similar rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

For users in India (DPDP Act 2023/2026): You have the right to grievance redressal, the right to nominate another individual to manage your data in the event of your death or incapacity, and the right to complain to the Data Protection Board of India if you believe your rights have been violated. To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@netd4te.com or contact our Grievance Officer.

8. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party sites (like our social media pages) that we don't operate. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies before sharing any information with them.

9. Children's Privacy

NETD4TE waitlist registration is only for users aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If we find out a minor gave us personal information, we will delete it immediately.

10. Data Localization & Security

Your information is stored securely on Google Cloud (Firebase) servers located in data centers within India (Mumbai / asia-south1). All personal data is encrypted at rest using industry-standard AES-256 encryption. We make sure proper protections are in place to keep your data safe, in compliance with the DPDP Act and other global standards.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of big changes by email. If you keep using our services after changes, you accept the updated policy.

12. Job Applicants & Candidates

If you apply for a job or email us your resume through our Careers page, you consent to the processing of your personal data. We use applicant data (such as employment history, contact info, and education) strictly for recruitment purposes. This data is kept secure, shared only with the hiring team, and will be securely deleted after the recruitment process concludes (or after a maximum of 6 months), unless you request its deletion sooner.
