Privacy Policy

Last updated: 23 October 2026 · Draft for review

Tilt is a dating app for adults (18+) in Bengaluru, India. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why, who we share it with, and the choices you have. We follow India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Information Technology Rules. “We” means the operator of Tilt; “you” means a Tilt member.

1. What we collect

Data	Why
Email address (and phone number, if you sign in with it)	To sign you in with a one-time code and keep your account secure.
Date of birth	To confirm you are 18+ and show your age. Your birth date itself is never shown to others.
Profile: name, gender, photos, prompts, interests, what you’re looking for, neighbourhood, work, education, height, lifestyle answers, bio	To build the profile other members see. Everything except your name, gender and photos is optional.
Preferences: who you want to meet, age range, filters, Meet Window (times and areas you’re free)	To suggest people and fair, public date spots. Others only ever see the times and areas you both share.
Your activity: likes (TILTs), passes, matches, messages, TILT choices (Date / Talk more / Pass), date plans, feedback	To run the app. Your TILT choice is never shown to the other person.

We never collect your precise location. Tilt uses neighbourhood names only. We do not sell your data and we do not show third-party ads.

2. Who can see what

Other members see your profile card only: name, age, photos, prompts, interests, neighbourhood and the optional details you add. Never your email, phone, birth date or exact location.
Messages are visible only to the two people in the match.
With Incognito (Tilt+), only people you have liked can see your profile.
Our small moderation team can see profiles, reports and verification selfies when reviewing safety issues.

3. Service providers we use

Supabase: database, sign-in, file storage and server functions.
Expo: app delivery and push notifications.
Google Play / Apple App Store and RevenueCat: Tilt+ purchases and subscription status.
Brevo: sending sign-in codes by email.
Anthropic (Claude): optionally rewrites date-spot suggestions. It receives only venue facts and shared interest labels, never your name, photos, age or location.

Some providers may process data outside India, under contracts that require them to protect it.

4. How long we keep it

While your account is open, we keep your data so the app works.
When you delete your account (You → Delete my account, or by email: see how to delete your account), your account, profile, photos, matches, messages and personal details are permanently deleted. Any remaining stored files are removed by an automatic job.
We keep a minimal record that an account was deleted, and reports or bans needed to protect others, without your name or contact details, as long as the law requires.

5. Your rights

You can access and correct your data in the app, withdraw consent by deleting your account, and ask us questions or raise a complaint. Contact our Grievance Officer below; we reply within 30 days. You may also approach the Data Protection Board of India.
