Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 8, 2026

1. Overview

Luvvone (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a one-to-one, identity-based communication app designed for couples. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we share it, and the choices you have.

2. What Luvvone Is (and Is Not)

  • Luvvone is pair-only: one verified person connects to one approved partner.
  • There are no public profiles, discovery, search, or social graph features.
  • Message content is encrypted on your device before leaving it.

3. End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) and “Server as Bridge”

Luvvone is designed so that message content is encrypted on-device and transported as encrypted data. We do not intentionally store plaintext message content on our servers.

Encrypted message payloads may be temporarily stored in a message “bridge” to deliver them to your partner. After delivery and acknowledgement, bridge records are designed to be deleted automatically.

Important: no security approach is perfect. While E2EE protects message content from being read in transit and at rest, metadata (like timestamps and sender/recipient identifiers) may still exist for delivery, abuse prevention, and reliability.

4. Information We Collect

Depending on how you use Luvvone, we may collect the following categories of information:

4.1 Account and identity

  • Phone number (used for sign-in and account recovery); we may store a hashed form for verification workflows.
  • Basic profile details you choose to provide (e.g., full name, email, bio).

4.2 Pairing and relationship state

  • Pairing requests and approvals (who requested, who approved, status, timestamps).
  • Streak/interaction metadata (counts and timestamps) if you use streak features.

4.3 Messaging and content (encrypted)

  • Encrypted message payloads used for delivery (“bridge” data).
  • Encrypted attachments (e.g., image/audio/file) if you choose to send them.
  • Delivery status metadata (pending/delivered/read) and relevant timestamps.

4.4 Device and technical data

  • Device information (model, OS version) and security-related identifiers for device binding and fraud prevention.
  • IP address and approximate location derived from IP (for security, abuse prevention, and diagnostics).
  • Crash/diagnostic logs (if enabled by your device/OS settings and permitted by the platform).

4.5 Notifications

  • Push notification tokens (to deliver notifications to your device).

5. Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect

  • We do not intentionally collect or store your plaintext message content on our servers.
  • We do not sell your personal information.
  • We do not build a public social graph or run public discovery features.

6. How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • Create and maintain your account, verify identity, and prevent fraud or impersonation.
  • Enable pairing and ensure one-to-one restrictions are enforced.
  • Deliver messages and attachments and provide reliability features (delivery/read indicators, retries).
  • Operate, debug, secure, and improve the service (including abuse prevention).
  • Send service-related messages (e.g., security alerts, account notices).

7. How We Share Information

We may share information in the following situations:

  • With your partner: profile details you choose to share, and messaging delivery metadata necessary for chat UX.
  • With service providers: we use infrastructure providers to operate Luvvone (for example, cloud messaging, authentication, databases, and storage). They process data on our behalf under appropriate safeguards.
  • For legal and safety reasons: to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, enforce our terms, or protect users and the public.
  • Business transfers: if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

7.1 Service providers (examples)

We work with third-party service providers to run and secure the service. Depending on your platform and usage, this can include:

  • Google Firebase (e.g., authentication, notifications, and operational data services used by the app).
  • Supabase (e.g., database, realtime features, and storage used for app functionality).

These providers process information on our behalf under contractual and technical safeguards. We aim to minimize what is shared, and message content is designed to remain end-to-end encrypted.

7.2 Platform and App Store disclosures

When you download or use Luvvone through Apple or Google app distribution platforms, those platforms may also collect information about your device and account (for example, for store operations, fraud prevention, or analytics) under their own policies. We do not control that processing.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to provide the service and meet legal, security, and operational requirements. Message bridge data is designed to be temporary. In general, delivered/acknowledged bridge records are deleted automatically, and undelivered messages expire after a limited retention window.

Account/profile and pairing metadata may be retained until you delete your account or as otherwise required for security and compliance.

9. Security

We use technical and organizational measures intended to protect your information (encryption, authentication controls, access limitation, and monitoring). However, no system is 100% secure. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and any account credentials.

10. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

  • Access, correct, or delete certain personal information.
  • Object to or restrict certain processing.
  • Request a copy of information we hold about you.
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@luvvone.com.

11. Children

Luvvone is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

12. International Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and update the “Last Updated” date.
