Privacy Policy

Information we collect

• Account information such as your name, email address, profile details, and sign-in information.
• Challenge activity such as challenges created or joined, goals, progress, check-ins, streaks, invitations, comments, reactions, and messages.
• Content you submit, including photos, videos, captions, and other proof of progress.
• Technical information such as device, browser, IP address, approximate location, and security or usage logs.

How we use information

• Provide accounts, challenges, invitations, progress tracking, feeds, notifications, messaging, and community features.
• Personalize your experience and show relevant challenge activity.
• Protect users, investigate reports, prevent fraud or abuse, and enforce our rules.
• Send account, security, invitation, and service emails. Marketing messages will include an appropriate way to opt out.
• Improve reliability, accessibility, performance, and product features.

Who can see your content

Public challenge content may be visible to anyone. Private challenge content is intended for invited or approved members, but members can still save or share what they see. Your profile, posts, photos, videos, and progress may be visible based on the challenge and privacy settings you choose.

Never post sensitive personal information, financial account details, passwords, government identification, or another person’s private information.

How information is shared

We use service providers for hosting, authentication, data storage, email delivery, security, and analytics. They may process information only to provide those services. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect people or the service, or as part of a business transfer.

ChallengeMates does not sell your personal information. We do not hold or manage money that users choose to save during a challenge.

Storage, security, and retention

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, but no online service can guarantee complete security. We retain information while your account is active and as reasonably needed for the service, safety, dispute resolution, legal obligations, and enforcement. Some backups and safety records may remain for a limited period after deletion.

Your choices and rights

• Update your profile and challenge privacy choices.
• Delete content where the product provides that option, or request account deletion.
• Control optional communications and device notification settings.
• Request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of your information where applicable law provides those rights.

Children and changes

ChallengeMates is not intended for children under 13. If we learn that we collected a child’s information without appropriate permission, we will take steps to remove it.

We may update this policy as the service changes. We will post the revised date and provide additional notice when a change is significant. Privacy questions or requests can be submitted through the support and reporting tools available in ChallengeMates.
