Privacy Policy
BizMingle is a hybrid platform that combines adult dating and social networking with marketplace services. This Privacy Policy explains how BizMingle handles information when you use its mobile application, this website, and related services. By creating an account or using BizMingle, you acknowledge this Policy.
1. Information BizMingle handles
Depending on the features you use, BizMingle may handle:
- Account and authentication data: name, username, email address, phone number where provided, password hash, email-verification state, sign-in provider identifiers, login timestamps, refresh-session version, and account status.
- Profile and dating data: profile name, age, gender, dating preferences, biography, interests, photos, approximate or device-provided location, verification state, likes, swipes, matches, blocks, and reports.
- Messages and communications: messages, message attachments, conversations, support tickets, reports, and related timestamps.
- Marketplace data: product listings, images, categories, prices, inventory, seller details, reviews, wishlists, carts, and seller-verification information.
- Order and delivery data: order items, totals, status, delivery address, tracking details, fulfilment information, returns, disputes, and support history.
- Payment data: payment references, status, currency, transaction metadata, and limited saved-payment details such as card brand and last four digits. BizMingle does not store complete card numbers or CVV values.
- Device and technical data: push-notification token, device and app information when supplied by the platform, IP address, user agent, API activity, error information, and security events.
- Uploaded media: photos, product images, identity or verification documents where a feature requests them, file identifiers, moderation status, and hosted URLs.
2. Eligibility and children
BizMingle is intended for adults aged 18 or older because it includes dating and social discovery. Do not use dating features if you are under 18. We do not knowingly permit children to use those features. Contact us if you believe a child has provided information.
3. Location, analytics, and web technologies
Location may be requested for local discovery, delivery calculations, address selection, or dating discovery. You can control device permissions, but some features may not work without relevant location information.
The application records operational activity such as product views, searches, carts, purchases, sessions, messages, and retention events for functionality, recommendations, fraud prevention, and service improvement. The repository does not show a separate advertising analytics SDK or cookie-based tracking system in the mobile application. The public legal site uses no advertising cookies and no analytics cookies in this page.
4. How information is used
- Create and secure accounts, authenticate users, refresh sessions, and prevent unauthorized access.
- Provide profiles, dating discovery, likes, matches, messaging, blocking, reporting, and notifications.
- Publish and manage marketplace listings, inventory, carts, orders, deliveries, returns, and reviews.
- Process and verify payments, subscriptions, refunds, settlements, and fraud checks.
- Moderate uploaded media and user-generated content, investigate abuse, and enforce the Terms.
- Provide customer support, diagnose failures, monitor performance, and improve reliability.
- Comply with lawful requests, protect users, and maintain security records where necessary.
5. Services used to operate BizMingle
Based on the current repository, BizMingle may share the minimum information needed with these categories of providers:
- MongoDB/Mongoose: application database storage.
- Render: backend hosting and deployment.
- Redis: distributed rate limiting, queues, and real-time server coordination where enabled.
- Paystack: payment processing, payment verification, refunds, and subscription operations.
- ImageKit: uploaded image storage and delivery.
- Amazon Web Services Rekognition: image or identity-related moderation and verification where configured.
- Resend: transactional email delivery where configured.
- Google and Facebook: identity-provider services only when the relevant sign-in option and production credentials are enabled.
- Socket.IO: real-time messaging and event delivery between the app and backend.
Provider availability depends on configuration and the feature being used. We do not sell personal information.
6. Sharing and disclosures
Information may be visible to other users when you intentionally publish a profile, listing, review, message, or other content. We may disclose information to service providers, sellers or delivery participants when needed to complete a transaction, professional advisers, authorities where legally required, or parties needed to investigate fraud, abuse, safety incidents, or disputes. We do not guarantee that another user will keep information confidential after you choose to share it with them.
7. Retention and deletion
We retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, protect users, resolve disputes, complete orders, satisfy accounting or payment obligations, and enforce the Terms. Activity and security records may expire automatically under configured retention rules. Payment processors and legally required transaction records may remain after account deletion. See Delete Account for the current deletion behavior.
8. Security
BizMingle uses authenticated API access, password hashing, protected token storage on supported devices, rate limiting, access controls, moderation, fraud monitoring, and HTTPS in production deployments. No service can guarantee absolute security. Never share your password or payment credentials through messages.
9. International transfers
BizMingle and its providers may process information in countries different from your own. Where required, we will use applicable safeguards and contractual or legal mechanisms for those transfers.
10. Your choices and rights
Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or clarification about your information. You may withdraw device permissions and disable notifications through your device or app settings. To request help, email ayodeleogunyemi25@yahoo.co.uk.
11. Third-party links
BizMingle may link to third-party payment, identity, delivery, or other services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. Review them before submitting information.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the application, providers, or legal requirements change. The revised date will appear at the top. Continued use after an update means you have had an opportunity to review it.
