Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

LIFESTYLE is a social community for adults aged 21 and older, operated by Typeone Technologies LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). This policy explains how we handle personal information when you use the LIFESTYLE app and related services.

For privacy questions or requests, contact lifestyleapp112@gmail.com.

2. Information we collect

• Account and authentication information: email address, authentication identifiers, sign-in and verification status, date of birth, and account settings. Our authentication provider handles login credentials and session information.
• Phone and age-check information: the phone number you provide for verification, verification attempts and results, consent records, and ID images you submit for the age-check process described below.
• Profiles and member activity: your display name, profile details, interests, relationship or shared-profile information, language preferences, connections, and information you choose to provide about yourself. Some optional profile information may reveal sensitive personal details. Do not submit information about another person without their permission.
• Content and communications: photos, videos, posts, stories, private-album content, messages, comments, reactions, event activity, reports, and communications with us. Visibility depends on the feature and its access settings.
• Place information: location details you choose to enter or share, including public venues selected for stories. A selected venue may reveal where you are or plan to be. Story venue tags do not automatically publish your device GPS location.
• Technical and safety information: account and content identifiers, request and error logs, timestamps, device/browser information made available by requests, and network information such as IP addresses processed by our hosting and authentication providers. We use these to operate the service and investigate abuse or failures.

3. Phone and age verification

LIFESTYLE is restricted to adults aged 21 and older. Phone verification uses a one-time code delivered through Twilio. Twilio processes your phone number and related delivery and verification information.

For age checks, you may be asked to submit the front and back of a supported government-issued ID. Our server processes these images to read your date of birth and determine whether you meet the age requirement. ID photos can contain other details even though the check is intended to extract only the date of birth.

Optional AI-assisted reading: with your separate consent for that upload, the front ID image may be sent to OpenAI through Replit’s AI integration to read the date of birth. Declining that consent means the AI-assisted reader is not used for that upload; a non-AI attempt may still be unable to complete the age check.

The application processes ID image bytes temporarily and does not intentionally save them to its database or member-media storage. We retain verification results, consent and operational records, and the date of birth supplied during enrollment. OpenAI requests are configured not to store completion responses, but this does not guarantee zero provider retention; providers may retain information under their own security, abuse-prevention, and legal policies.

These checks do not perform facial recognition, biometric matching, or an identity-authenticity guarantee. A successful age or phone check does not prove that a member is who they claim to be.

4. How we use information

• Create and maintain accounts, authenticate members, and enforce the 21+ access requirement.
• Provide profiles, feeds, stories, messaging, albums, events, and member interactions.
• Apply your privacy settings and content-access permissions.
• Investigate reports, enforce community rules, prevent abuse, and maintain service security.
• Respond to support, privacy, and deletion requests and meet applicable legal obligations.
• Diagnose technical problems and maintain the service.

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, these purposes may involve providing the service you request, our legitimate interests in operating a safe service, legal obligations, or your consent for optional processing. Withdrawing consent does not undo processing already performed lawfully.

5. Who receives information

Other members: information you share is available to its permitted audience. Shared-profile partners may have access to and manage shared information. Recipients may retain copies of messages or media. Access restrictions cannot prevent every screenshot, recording, or off-platform disclosure.

Service providers: the current service uses Clerk for authentication, Replit and its hosting/database/storage infrastructure for application operations, Twilio for phone verification, OpenAI through Replit for separately consented ID date-of-birth reading, and Google Maps Platform for public-venue search. These services receive the information needed for their roles, such as login details, stored member content, a verification phone number, a consented ID image, or venue-search queries.

Authorized personnel: administrators and service operators may access information needed for support, safety, moderation, and technical operations. Do not assume that messages or private albums are end-to-end encrypted or inaccessible to authorized operators.

Legal and business circumstances: information may be disclosed when required by law, to respond to valid legal process, protect rights and safety, investigate abuse, or as part of a business transfer subject to applicable protections.

Providers and infrastructure may process information outside your country. Applicable provider terms and privacy policies also describe their processing. We do not promise that data stays in a particular country.

6. Device permissions and sessions

Features may request access to your camera or selected photos and videos when you choose to capture or upload content. You can change device permissions in your operating-system settings. Denying a permission may prevent the related feature from working.

The current beta does not offer production Live broadcasting. This policy does not imply that Live video or audio is available. If enabled in a future release, its privacy information and permission prompts must reflect the actual processing.

The app and authentication service use session tokens and local storage to keep you signed in and retain preferences. Signing out or clearing local data does not delete information stored on our servers.

7. Retention and account deletion

Retention depends on the information and its purpose, including account operation, member communications, safety investigations, legal obligations, and service-provider requirements. This beta does not currently implement a single automatic erasure deadline for all data categories.

You can request account deletion using the in-app account-deletion control or by emailing lifestyleapp112@gmail.com. We may ask for information reasonably needed to confirm that the request is yours. Do not email passwords, verification codes, or ID photos.

Current deletion behavior: an accepted in-app request disables account access, restricts the associated profile’s visibility, revokes relevant access, and queues attributable media for removal. This is not immediate erasure of every record. Remaining account, authentication-provider, message, verification, and audit records require a separate erasure process. Contact us to request and follow up on that process.

Shared-profile content may require review to protect other partners’ ownership. Information may remain in recipients’ copies, backups, provider records, or records retained for legal and safety reasons. A story’s disappearance or removal of access does not by itself mean every underlying record has been erased.

8. Your privacy choices and rights

You can edit available profile fields, adjust privacy and audience settings, manage device permissions, block or report members, and request account deletion. Choose carefully what you share with others.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of personal information, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent, or complain to a privacy regulator. Contact us to exercise applicable rights or ask about a decision on your request. We may verify your identity before acting and apply exceptions permitted by law.

9. Security and age restrictions

We use authentication, access controls, and other technical measures to protect information. No service, device, or transmission method is completely secure. Please protect your login credentials and report suspected unauthorized access.

LIFESTYLE is not intended for anyone under 21. If you believe someone under 21 has provided information or gained access, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the service changes. The published policy will identify its effective or updated date. Material changes will be communicated as required by applicable law, and additional consent will be requested when required.
