Privacy
We built Auvre on the premise that the most honest thing about you is what you watch when no one's looking. That premise only works if we're careful with that data. This is what we collect, why we keep it, and what you can ask us to do with it.
1. Who we are
Auvre is operated by Stelios Papapetrou (sole proprietor) — referred to below as "we", "us", "Auvre". Contact: support@auvre.app.
2. What we collect
- Account information — your Apple ID identifier, the email address Apple shares with us when you sign in (real or relay), and the display name you choose.
- Profile information — date of birth, gender, who you're interested in, age range, photos you upload, and the city you select (we store coarse city, not precise GPS).
- Your Auvre — the behavioural profile our system generates from the patterns in your TikTok export (see § 3).
- Subscription history — Apple-mediated purchase events for premium subscriptions (we never see your card).
- Messages and reports — content you send to other users, and any reports either party files.
- Diagnostics — crash reports and performance data through Firebase Crashlytics and Firebase Analytics, not linked to your identity in a way we can use to identify you.
- Web visits to auvre.app — only after you accept the cookie banner: Firebase Analytics and Mixpanel record page views, the UTM parameters in the URL, and the invite code if one is present. No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking, no IDFA. If you decline, no analytics events fire and no analytics cookies are written.
- In-app behavioural events — Firebase Analytics and Mixpanel record which screens you visit and which actions you take inside the app, attached to your Auvre user ID. We use this to find broken funnels and to measure how the launch is going. We do not collect IDFA, do not request the App Tracking Transparency permission, and do not link your activity to other apps.
3. How we treat your TikTok export
When you upload your TikTok data archive, our system reads it once to extract behavioural patterns — what you watched, what you searched, what you commented on, what you came back to. The raw archive itself is deleted from our storage within sixty seconds of the read completing. We do not retain the videos, the search terms, or the comments themselves. We retain only the patterns we read in them, which together form your Auvre.
The Auvre is the only artifact we keep from your TikTok history. You can re-upload at any time to refresh it; doing so replaces the prior Auvre entirely.
4. Why we collect each thing
- To make introductions. Your Auvre, age range, and city are the inputs to our matching system.
- To run the app. Your Apple ID identifier signs you in; your subscription history determines whether premium is active.
- To keep things safe. Reports and message content are reviewed when a user flags abuse.
- To improve the product. Crash and analytics data tell us when something is broken or confusing.
We do not sell your information. We do not share it with advertisers. We do not run an ad network. Your data is not the product.
5. Who we share with (sub-processors)
- Google — Firebase Authentication, Firestore, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions, Cloud Messaging, Crashlytics, Analytics, Vertex AI (Gemini and embedding models). All processing runs inside Google Cloud regions we control.
- Apple — Sign in with Apple, StoreKit (subscription billing), Apple Push Notification service.
- Mixpanel — product analytics. We send the same screen-view and action events that go to Firebase Analytics. Mixpanel processes the events on US-region servers under their data-processing terms. We do not send Mixpanel your TikTok data, photos, message content, or any other content you create — only the names of the screens you visit and the actions you take, attached to your Auvre user ID.
All three sub-processors are bound by their own data-processing terms and their respective privacy policies. We do not engage advertising or attribution vendors and do not place data into ad networks.
6. How long we keep things
- Raw TikTok archive: ≤ 60 seconds.
- Your Auvre, profile, photos, and messages: until you delete your account.
- Subscription receipts: as long as Apple retains them.
- Crash and analytics data: rolling windows defined by Firebase defaults (typically up to 14 months).
7. Deleting your account
You can delete your account from inside the app at any time — Settings → Delete Account. We hold the deletion request for seven days as a cooling-off window; if you sign back in inside that window, the deletion is undone. After seven days the deletion is permanent and we remove your authentication record, profile, photos, messages, Auvre, push token, and any invite codes you owned.
If you cannot access the app, email support@auvre.app from the address Apple shares with us and we will process the deletion manually.
8. Your rights — GDPR (EU/UK)
If you are in the EU, the UK, or a country with comparable rights, you can ask us to:
- Confirm what we hold about you and give you a copy.
- Correct anything that is wrong.
- Delete your account and the data tied to it.
- Export the data you provided in a portable format.
- Object to or restrict our processing.
- Lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.
Email support@auvre.app and we will respond within thirty days.
9. Your rights — CCPA / CPRA (California)
If you are a California resident, you can ask us to disclose what categories of information we collect, request a copy, request deletion, and request correction. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
10. Children
Auvre is for adults only. You must be at least eighteen years old to use it. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under eighteen; if you believe we have, email support@auvre.app and we will delete it.
11. Cookies and similar technologies
The auvre.app marketing site uses Firebase Analytics, which stores a small first-party identifier in your browser to count page views and attribute referrals from invite links. It does not track you across other sites. The iOS app does not use cookies.
12. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy in a way that meaningfully affects your rights, we will say so on this page and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the current version.
