How long personal data is stored and processed

We may retain the personal information that the users provide us through the Website in a database such as the customer database. Your personal data will be retained by us only for as long as they are used to provide you with access to all of the Website facilities, in order to be able to answer questions, in order to resolve certain situations or to bring upgrades and new services, obeying the laws and the legislation. 

Given that through the Website you are offered services of social relationships and a "dating" platform and taking into consideration that the purpose of the service is precisely to give users a way to know, to initiate and to maintain relationships, it is necessary to store and process the personal data provided by each user for the entire duration of the Service.

Personal data may be retained for a certain period of time, even after you cease to use the services provided by this Website, by revoking your initial agreement. In this case, certain personal data will be retained for a maximum of 3 years from the time the account is canceled, unless the law forces us to store these data for a longer period of time. Upon expiration of these periods, personal data may be destroyed by automated deletion or, if law provides for a longer storage period than the one provided by this Privacy Policy, personal data is secured by automated encryption methods and anonymization. 

During this period, account information will be retained although the account will of course not be visible on the services anymore.

In practice, we delete or anonymize your information upon deletion of your account (following the safety retention window) unless:

  • we must keep it to evidence our compliance with applicable law (for instance, records of consents to our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and other similar consents are kept for 3 years);

  • there is an outstanding issue, claim or dispute requiring us to keep the relevant information until it is resolved; or

  • the information must be kept for our legitimate business interests, such as fraud prevention and enhancing User`s safety and security. For example, information may need to be kept to prevent a user who was banned for unsafe behavior or security incidents from opening a new account.

Keep in mind that even though our systems are designed to carry out data deletion processes according to the above guidelines, we cannot promise that all data will be deleted within a specific time frame due to technical constraints.

We can keep statistics generated by using the information collected from the Website for a long time, but such reports do not identify the User and will not be used in any other way that could affect the protection of personal data or the User`s privacy.

Personal Data Access

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to third parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or providing you with services, as long as those parties are committed to keeping this information confidential by all means. We may also release your information when such a release is necessary in order to comply with the law, enforce our site policies or protect the rights, property or safety of Infolab Net Solutions SRL or of other parties. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing and advertising purposes or for other uses.

Data Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we use advanced physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information that we collect online.
