5. Public ad information

When you publish an ad, some information you provide may be visible to visitors or other users, including your ad details, photos and contact options depending on the page and your settings. Do not publish information that you do not want others to see.

6. Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for:

• Essential functions: sessions, login state, language preference and remembering whether a visitor came from the Facebook app.
• Analytics: Google Analytics and Inspectlet may help us understand site usage and diagnose usability problems.
• Advertising and pixels: Google AdSense and Meta/Facebook Pixel may use cookies or similar identifiers to provide, measure and improve advertising.
• Notifications: OneSignal may use identifiers needed to provide browser push notifications.
• Maps and place suggestions: Google Maps/Places may be loaded on pages that use country/city autocomplete.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies, login, language preference, notifications and other features may not work correctly. Where required by law, non-essential cookies should only be used with your consent.

7. Third-party services

We may use service providers that process data for us or independently provide parts of the service, including:

• website hosting and database providers;
• email delivery providers;
• Google services, including Google Analytics, Google AdSense and Google Maps/Places;
• Meta/Facebook services, including Facebook Pixel and social sharing features;
• OneSignal for browser push notifications;
• Inspectlet for website analytics and troubleshooting.

These providers may process technical data, cookie identifiers, usage data or other information needed to provide their services. Their own privacy policies may also apply.

8. International transfers

The website may be hosted in the European Union, but some providers or recipients may be located outside the European Economic Area. Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as European Commission adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses or other safeguards permitted by GDPR.

9. How long we keep data

We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including:

• account data while your account exists;
• ads and profile data while your ad is active or as needed for site integrity, abuse prevention or backups;
• messages and contact requests as needed to deliver the message, maintain records and prevent abuse;
• technical logs, analytics and error reports for troubleshooting, security and site improvement;
• data we must keep longer when required by law or to establish, defend or enforce legal claims.

Backup copies may remain for a limited period after deletion until normal backup rotation removes them.

10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. No website or internet transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Your GDPR rights

If GDPR applies to you, you may have the right to:

• request access to your personal data;
• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
• request deletion of your data;
• request restriction of processing;
• object to processing based on legitimate interests;
• object to direct marketing;
• request data portability;
• withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent;
• lodge a complaint with a data protection authority in the EU/EEA.

To exercise these rights, use our contact page. We may need to verify your identity before responding. You can also update some account or ad information by logging in to your account.

12. Children

This website may be used by children and teenagers who are looking for a dance partner. Because ads may include personal data such as name, age, location, photos and contact details, children should use the website only with the knowledge and permission of a parent or legal guardian where required by applicable law.

If a child is below the age at which they can lawfully consent to online services in their country, we rely on parental or guardian consent where consent is required. Parents or guardians may contact us to request access, correction or deletion of a child's personal data, or to ask us to remove an ad or photo published by a child.

13. Email and notifications

We may send service emails related to registration, password recovery, messages, ads, support requests and notifications you request. You can disable browser push notifications through your browser settings and may contact us if you want help with notification-related data.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.

15. Contact
