Small Plates

Founding beta · September 10, 2026

Privacy notice

What the development beta collects, why it is used, and what other participants can see.

Use test information for beta profiles. Development profile data is separate from the future public beta. Email-update signups are kept separately so interested people can stay informed without creating a dating profile.

Information you provide

This includes your account email, username, birth date, profile details, dating and marriage goals, faith importance, photos, interests, messages, connection requests, introduction choices, blocks, reports, beta feedback, privacy settings, and—if you choose it—an email address and consent for occasional launch updates.

Information created through use

The beta records likes, passes, matches, connection state, feature events, timestamps, and basic technical records supplied by the hosting and database providers. It does not ask for precise GPS location, ward, stake, home address, or temple-recommend status.

How information is used

Information is used to create accounts, show compatible profiles, deliver likes and messages, calculate consent-controlled mutual context, operate introductions, prevent abuse, investigate reports, understand aggregate beta interest and reliability, and send occasional Small Plates updates only to people who requested them.

What other participants see

Eligible daters may see your active dating profile. People you like can see that interest, and matches can message. Accepted connections may see the profile context you permit. Mutual names appear only when that person allows it. Your username can be shared for exact connection requests. Your email address is never displayed or offered through search; if you enable email connections, someone who already knows and enters your complete address may send a request. Email-update addresses, complete friend lists, birth dates, reports, blocks, and other private account records are not exposed to participants.

Service providers

The beta uses hosting and Supabase database, authentication, and file-storage services to operate. These providers process data on behalf of the project under their own service terms. Data is not sold, and the beta does not use sensitive profile or social-graph data for advertising.

Retention and deletion

Beta data is kept only as long as needed to run and evaluate the test. In-app deletion hides your profile immediately and queues the account for permanent deletion. Email-update entries are kept until you unsubscribe or the list is no longer needed. Limited safety, fraud, or legal records may be retained longer when necessary.

Your choices

You can edit profile details, update your beta feedback, control introduction and mutual-connection visibility, block or report another account, sign out, or request deletion in the app. You can unsubscribe from email updates or make a privacy request by emailing support@smallplatesapp.com.

Security and limits

The beta uses private photo storage and account-scoped database rules, but no system can promise absolute security. Do not put highly sensitive information in a profile or message.

Independence
