PLEASE READ THIS POLICY CAREFULLY TO UNDERSTAND OUR POLICIES AND PRACTICES REGARDING YOUR INFORMATION AND HOW WE WILL TREAT IT.
BY ACCESSING OR USING THIS APP, YOU AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
If you do not agree with our policies and practices, PLEASE do not use our App.
This privacy policy may change from time to time. Your continued use of this App after We make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates.
This Privacy Policy and associated agreements are written to comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 (“General Data Protection Regulation”).
Yumi Limited, a limited liability company organized in Hong Kong (“Yumi,” “Company,” “We” or “Us”) respects your privacy and We are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy.
This policy describes the types of information We may collect from you or that you may provide when you download the App from the Apple App Store or Google Play and such other related sites and mobile applications as Yumi may create (collectively, the “App”) and our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information.
The App enables people (each, a “User” and, collectively, the “Users”) who live close to one another to connect and meet, all while ensuring 100% anonymity for everyone involved. Some User Content is available to all Users and other User Content is available to only Members.
Capitalized terms not defined herein are defined in our Terms and Conditions.

The technologies We use for this automatic data collection may include:

PLEASE NOTE that you will have more than one account on the App as a result of repeatedly collecting your information. We strongly suggest you delete your account on the App before your UUID changes as a result of the foregoing events so you will have only one account on the App.
(d) Your use of our services. We will collect additional information when you use certain of the services we offer such as messaging and location-based services. In such cases, we will retain and messages that you send to another User as well as those between you and Us, to both resolve any issues that may arise as well as to resolve any technical issues you may be having with the App. If you choose to use the location services feature of your device, We will have access to your location – but the default choice is that the App does NOT use the location services of your device. Additionally, if you contact customer service for any reason, We will obtain your email address. Other than messages you send to Us, we will not access messages between Users unless (a) requested/required by law enforcement or an official order of any court with competent jurisdiction, or (b) required to resolve any dispute between Users.
Owing to the unique nature of the App, your profile includes only the Essential Information and, in your discretion, the Optional Information, none of which identifies you individually (unless you are photographed with such information or you say so in your recording). We use that information for the sole purpose of better understanding our audience as a whole and enhancing our services.
You grant us permission to make Essential Information and, to the extent you provide it, Optional Information public.
Our staff has limited access to the information you provide in your profile, as you may amend it from time to time, and our staff may access that information only for the purpose of assisting you to edit or delete that information, as well as for assisting you in the use of our App or in resolving Disputes.

We may use the information We have collected from you to enable us to display advertisements to our advertisers’ target audiences. Even though We do not disclose your personal information for these purposes without your consent, if you click on or otherwise interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may assume that you meet its target criteria.
We do not collect any information that can personally identify you. Consequently, we have no personal information to disclose or sell.
