Privacy Policy

Needle is in closed beta. This page is a plain-language placeholder so testers can see what data the product expects before formal legal copy is finalized.

Needle collects account details, profile details, onboarding conversation messages, generated profile fields, photos you upload, match actions, shared conversation messages, and basic product usage analytics.

Beta analytics are used to understand whether people complete onboarding, generate profiles, receive matches, express interest, form mutual matches, return, and encounter reliability problems. Analytics should not include full private conversation transcripts.

You can delete your account and associated application data from your profile screen while signed in.

Safety records are the exception. If a report is filed, we keep it after either person deletes their account, including the reported person's email address and a copy of the shared chat as it stood at that time, so the Needle team can review it. If a block involves your account, we keep a one-way hash of your email address so the block still applies if you register again.
