Your Privacy Matters to Us

What Information We Collect

We only collect what we need to help you meet a real match and keep scammers off the site. Here's the full list.

1. Information You Give Us Directly

When you create a profile, you share your name, email address, date of birth, gender, state or county, a few photos, and the details you choose to add - faith, interests, what farm life means to you, whether you're widowed or divorced. You decide how much to share, and you can edit or remove anything later.

2. Identity Verification Information

To earn a green Verified badge and keep scammers out, we ask for a government-issued ID and a selfie. Our verification partner compares the two, confirms a match, and then the ID image is deleted from our systems. We keep only a record that verification was completed.

3. Messages and Interactions

We store the messages you send on the platform so our scam filters and human review team can act on reports. We do not read private messages for marketing. We never sell or share message content.

4. Payment Information

If you choose a paid membership, your card details go directly to our payment processor (a PCI-compliant third party). We only see the last four digits, the billing ZIP, and your renewal date - never your full card number.

5. Technical Information

Like most websites, we automatically log your IP address, browser type, device, and which pages you viewed. This helps us fix bugs, block suspicious logins, and keep the site running smoothly on older computers and phones.

How We Use Your Information

Cookies and Similar Technologies

A cookie is a small text file a website saves on your computer so it remembers you - kind of like a dog-eared bookmark in a paperback. We use three kinds:

• Essential cookies keep you logged in and your settings in place. These cannot be turned off without breaking the site.
• Preference cookies remember your dark-mode choice, last search filters, and which state pages you've visited.
• Analytics cookies tell us - in anonymous, aggregated form - which pages are most helpful so we can improve them.

You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. Our support team can walk you through it by phone if that's easier.

Third-Party Services We Work With

We use a small, carefully chosen group of U.S.-based service providers. Each signs a contract that limits them to the specific task we hired them for.

Your Rights as a Member

No matter which state you live in, you have the following rights at Seniors Dating. Many states (California, Colorado, Virginia, and others) guarantee these by law; we give them to everyone.

1. The right to see your data. Request a copy any time and we'll send it within 30 days.
2. The right to correct your data. Edit your profile, or ask our team to fix something for you.
3. The right to delete your account. Two clicks in settings, or one phone call. Your profile is removed within 7 days.
4. The right to opt out of marketing emails. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link.
5. The right to say no to data sales. We don't sell your data - so this right is already honored by default.
6. The right to appeal. If you think we mishandled a request, you can call us or contact your state attorney general.

How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep your profile data for as long as your account is active. If you close your account, we delete most personal details within 7 days. A small amount of information - billing records, safety logs, and records of serious policy violations - is kept for up to 7 years to meet U.S. tax and consumer-protection laws.

Verification ID images are deleted as soon as verification is confirmed. Messages older than two years are archived in encrypted storage and no longer visible to our support team unless a legal request requires them.

Keeping Your Information Safe

Our site uses HTTPS encryption on every page. Passwords are hashed - meaning even our engineers cannot see them. Access to member data is limited to a small U.S.-based support and safety team, each of whom passes a background check and signs a confidentiality agreement. No system is perfect, but we treat your information the way we'd treat a neighbor's front door key.

Children's Privacy

Seniors Dating is for adults 18 and older, and our community is built around singles 55 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has signed up, please contact us and we'll remove the account immediately.

Changes to This Policy

If we update this policy, we'll post the new version here with a fresh "Last Updated" date at the top. For meaningful changes, we'll email every active member at least 30 days before the change takes effect.
