Privacy policy

When you join the Bloom waitlist or complete a profile, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, birth year, city, occupation, education, LinkedIn URL, Instagram handle, gender, dating preferences, relationship goals, dealbreakers, family relationship context, conversation prompts, and other answers you choose to provide.

We may also collect basic technical information when you use the site, such as device, browser, IP address, pages viewed, referring page, and approximate location derived from your device or network. If we add analytics, cookies, or similar technologies, we will use them to understand site performance and improve Bloom.

We use the information we collect to operate the waitlist, review profile submissions, contact you about Bloom, curate potential introductions, improve the service, prevent fraud or misuse, comply with legal obligations, and protect Bloom and our users.

Bloom is designed for people seeking meaningful dating introductions, so some information you provide may be personal or sensitive. Please only share information you are comfortable giving us for the purposes described in this policy.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us host, store, secure, analyze, communicate, or operate Bloom, and they are expected to use the information only to provide services to us.

If Bloom begins making introductions, we may share limited profile information with a potential match only as needed to facilitate that introduction and only in a way consistent with the service. We may also share information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, in connection with a business transaction, or with your consent.

We keep personal information for as long as needed to operate Bloom, maintain the waitlist, provide matching or onboarding support, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may ask us to delete your information by contacting us.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, database, or transmission method is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by contacting us. You may also ask us to stop sending non-essential messages. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional privacy rights under local law. We will respond to privacy requests as required by applicable law.

Bloom is intended for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe someone under 18 has provided information to Bloom, please contact us so we can delete it.

Bloom may process and store information in countries other than where you live. Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from your local laws.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date and take additional steps if required by law.

For privacy questions or requests, contact us at bobby@hellobloom.date. If we later form or appoint a legal operating entity for Bloom, we may update this policy to include that entity and any additional contact details.
