At U-Bear, you have full control over your personal data. This page explains what data we collect, how it is used, and the choices you have to manage, update, or delete it.
When you use the U-Bear app, we may collect the following:
You can edit your profile information at any time from within the app. Go to your Profile tab and tap Edit Profile to update your name, photos, bio, and preferences.
Location sharing is opt-in. You can turn it on or off at any time from Settings inside the app. Disabling it removes you from the map and distance-based discovery immediately.
You can permanently delete your account and all associated data directly from the app. Go to Settings, tap Account, then Delete Account. This removes your profile, photos, messages, and all personal data from our servers. This action is irreversible.
If you are unable to access the app or need additional assistance, you can contact us directly to request a copy of your data or to request complete deletion.
You can opt out of marketing and newsletter emails at any time. Transactional emails (account confirmation, password reset) are required for account security and cannot be opted out of while your account is active.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, all personal data is removed within 30 days. Anonymized usage data may be retained for analytics purposes.
