Your Data And Your Rights

1. Scope And Data Controller

This Privacy Policy explains how Hype For Entertainment And Consulting Services ("Hype," "we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal data when you use the Hype app, website, and related services (collectively, the "Services").

By using the Services, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service at /terms.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly, data generated through your use of the Services, and data from trusted partners for security and functionality.

  • Account and profile data: name, username, age verification, email, phone number, profile image, biography, preferences.
  • Content and communications: posts, media uploads, comments, direct messages, support requests, and reports.
  • Usage data: feature interactions, logs, crash diagnostics, and app performance analytics.
  • Device and network data: device identifiers, IP address, browser type, operating system, language, and approximate location inferred from IP.
  • Precise location and contacts only where you grant permission through your device settings.
  • Transaction data for paid features, including subscription status and billing metadata from app store providers.

3. How We Use Personal Data

We process personal data to operate, maintain, and secure the Services, communicate with you, and improve user experience.

  • Authenticate users and protect accounts from fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access.
  • Moderate content and enforce safety policies, including CSAE/CSAM prevention and legal reporting obligations.
  • Respond to support requests and service notices.
  • Analyze usage, measure campaigns, and improve product performance.
  • Comply with legal obligations and resolve disputes.

4. Legal Bases For Processing

Where required by applicable law, we process personal data based on one or more legal grounds: performance of a contract with you, legitimate interests (such as security and product improvement), consent, and legal compliance.

You may withdraw consent at any time for processing that depends on consent, without affecting lawful processing performed before withdrawal.

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal data for money. We may disclose personal data to the following categories of recipients when necessary for service delivery, security, legal compliance, or business operations:

  • Service providers that host infrastructure, provide analytics, messaging, customer support, anti-fraud, moderation, and payment processing.
  • App platform providers (for example Apple and Google) for app distribution, billing, diagnostics, and compliance.
  • Law enforcement, regulators, child safety organizations, or courts when legally required or when needed to protect users, rights, and safety.
  • Professional advisers and potential acquirers in connection with mergers, financing, restructuring, or asset transfers.

6. Cookies, SDKs, And Similar Technologies

Our website and app may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and mobile SDKs to keep you signed in, measure traffic, remember preferences, detect abuse, and improve performance.

You can manage cookie preferences in your browser and manage mobile tracking permissions through your device settings. Some features may not function correctly if tracking technologies are disabled.

7. Data Retention

We keep personal data for as long as needed to provide the Services, maintain safety and compliance records, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Retention periods vary by data type and legal requirements. When data is no longer required, we delete it or de-identify it unless retention is legally required.

8. International Data Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries other than your own. When required, we apply appropriate safeguards for international transfers in accordance with applicable law.

9. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including access controls, encryption in transit where appropriate, logging, and abuse monitoring.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to processing, withdraw consent, and receive a copy of certain personal data in portable format.

You may also close your account or request deletion by contacting support@hypeapp.me. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

If you are a resident of a US state with applicable privacy laws (such as California), you may have rights to know, correct, and delete personal data, and to opt out of certain targeted advertising or data sharing activities where applicable.

Hype does not discriminate against users for exercising privacy rights. You may submit rights requests through support@hypeapp.me.

Hype is intended only for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18.

If we discover that a minor has provided personal data, we will take steps to remove the account and delete relevant data as required by law.

13. Third-Party Links

The Services may link to third-party websites or services that we do not control. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.

14. Changes To This Privacy Policy
