Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 16, 2026

Eat, Slay, Love ("we", "us", "our") operates the Eat, Slay, Love mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use the App.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information. When you sign up, we collect your name, email address, date of birth, home country, and profile photos you upload.

Profile Information. You may optionally provide interests, languages spoken, Instagram or TikTok handles, and a bio.

Location Data. With your permission, we access your device location to show nearby travelers and events on the map. We do not track your location in the background.

Usage Data. We collect information about how you interact with the App, including pages viewed, features used, and crash reports.

Messages. Messages you send through the App are stored on our servers to deliver the chat experience.

Photos. Photos you upload for your profile or dinner events are stored securely in cloud storage.

Payment Information. If you subscribe to a paid plan, subscription billing is handled by Apple through the App Store via RevenueCat (our payment infrastructure provider). We do not collect or store your payment card details.

Device Identifiers. We may collect device identifiers such as the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) or Identifier for Vendors (IDFV) to support analytics and attribution.

4. Data Storage and Security
