1. Service Agreement and Acceptance
This document constitutes Woga’s Data Handling Statement (the “Statement”), an integral component of our Service Terms. By utilizing our website (the “Platform”), downloading or accessing our mobile application Woga (“the App”), or engaging with any associated services (collectively termed “the Services” in this Statement), you consent to the provisions outlined herein. Continued use signifies acceptance of these terms. Should any provision be unacceptable, refrain from using the Services.
2. Varied Data Collection Practices
Upon accessing the Platform or App, or during registration and account utilization, we gather information to facilitate service delivery. The nature of collected data varies depending on user interactions with our services.
3. Types of Data Acquired
Our data collection spans several categories, detailed below, to ensure seamless service provision.
3.1 Account and Registration Particulars
Upon installing the App or registering for an account, we collect personally and non-personally identifiable data to enable service functionality. This includes:
Mandatory Information: Essential details such as gender, name or alias, date of birth, and contact information (mobile or email) are required. This data enables core features like connections and friend interactions.
Optional Data: Users may voluntarily provide additional information, including profile photos, videos, personal descriptions, or interests. Integration with third-party accounts (e.g., Facebook, Apple, Google) may grant access to supplementary data, such as names, email addresses, or profile pictures, subject to user consent. This facilitates account synchronization across devices and enhances service personalization.
We utilize contact details to deliver updates, promotional communications, and notifications, subject to applicable laws. Users may manage notification preferences via App settings or unsubscribe as instructed.
Text messaging services within the App facilitate user communication. We store and process such communications, including metadata, to detect abuse, prohibited content, and ensure platform integrity. Interaction patterns (e.g., contacts, timestamps) are analyzed to improve service functionality.
3.2 Geolocation Data
Location information, derived from GPS coordinates, Wi-Fi signals, or IP addresses, is collected to maintain account security, enable service functionality, and ensure accurate user connections. This data may be shared with other users to facilitate meaningful interactions. We may retain and utilize historical location data to personalize services and enhance connection relevance.
3.3 Log Information
“Log Data” encompasses details generated during user interactions with our services, including:
IP addresses, browser configurations, device specifics, page visits, carrier details, and search terms. Metadata (e.g., communication dates, durations) is also collected to improve service performance and user experience.
Log Data is retained for a maximum of 30 days and is used to ensure platform security, identify popular features, and optimize service delivery.
3.4 Third-Party and Affiliate Data
We may receive information from external sources, such as partners or corporate affiliates, to evaluate content quality and platform safety. Integration with payment services requires transmission of transactional data to third-party vendors. Users may revoke permissions for supported integrations via App settings.
3.5 Identity Inference and Personalization
Account-associated browsers or devices are linked for authentication, security, and personalized experiences. We may infer additional identity details (e.g., email hashes) to tailor services, such as age verification via third-party profiles.
3.6 App Usage Analytics
Device-specific data (e.g., model, identifiers, IP address) and user activity (e.g., matches, messaging, media sharing) are collected to monitor service engagement. Access to camera/microphone and media files is required for core functionalities, including compliance checks (e.g., age verification).
User-generated content (e.g., photos, videos, messages) is stored on our servers. Shared content may become publicly accessible and cannot be fully retracted once disseminated. Users acknowledge that Woga bears no responsibility for misuse of shared information.
Payment-related data (e.g., card details) is transmitted securely to third-party processors. Transactional records, including merchant names and timestamps, may be retained for behavioral analysis.
Error-reporting data, devoid of personally identifiable information, is collected to diagnose App malfunctions and improve stability.
3.7 Online Tracking Technologies
Cookies, pixel tags, and web beacons are used to monitor user behavior on our Platform, including visit frequency, duration, and device specifics. These technologies are essential for secure logins, data analytics, and service personalization. Users may disable tracking via browser settings.
3.8 Age Verification
The Services are restricted to users aged 18 and above. We employ third-party tools to verify age compliance and prevent underage access. Inadvertently collected data from minors is promptly deleted.
4. User Profile Management
Users may edit their profiles (e.g., name, interests, photos) at any time via the App. Profiles are visible to connected users and may be discoverable through proximity-based features. Facebook integration may auto-populate certain fields (e.g., name, birthdate, profile picture). Blocking functionality is available to restrict profile visibility.
5. Authorized Data Processing Purposes
We adhere to data minimization principles, processing user data solely for the following purposes:
Core Service Delivery: Facilitating connections, messaging, video calls, and media sharing.
