Privacy Policy

Your privacy, protected

Clear, plain-language details on what Florence collects, how it's used, and the choices you have over your own information.

Last updated: November 2026

The details

What this policy covers

๐Ÿ“‹

Information we collect

To build your profile and find suitable matches, we collect information such as your name, date of birth, contact details, location, faith practice, family background, education and career, lifestyle preferences, what youโ€™re looking for in a partner, and any photos you choose to upload. We also collect account information (like your email) and basic usage and device information needed to run the app, including push notification tokens.

๐ŸŽฏ

How we use your information

We use your information to build and review your profile, connect you with compatible matches, let our admin team verify profiles before they go live, send you notifications about matches and messages, respond to your enquiries, and improve Florence over time.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ

Who can see your profile

Profiles are visible only to approved members inside the app, and only after our admin team has approved them. Profiles are not shown on this website or to search engines. Contact details are shared only with a mutual match, and your waliโ€™s contact details are never shown to other members.

๐Ÿค

Family, wali and Mentor access

If you add a wali, or are paired with a Mentor, they can see the information needed for that role: your profile, your matches and your conversations, read-only. They cannot edit your profile or write as you. You choose whether to involve a wali, and how much. To change or remove a wali or Mentor, use the Help Center in the app or contact us, and our team will update it and end their access.

๐Ÿ”„

How we share your information

We do not sell your personal information, and Florence does not show advertising, so your information is never used to target ads. We share it only where necessary: with our admin review team, with a mutual match once both sides agree to connect, and with trusted service providers who help us run Florence, such as our database and authentication provider, email and SMS providers, and payment processors (Apple for App Store purchases and Google for Google Play purchases). We may also disclose information if required by law.

๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ

Photo privacy and consent

Photos are optional and hidden from other members by default. They are revealed to a match once both sides have agreed. If you prefer, you can switch on โ€œShow my photo before a mutual matchโ€ in your profile so approved members can see it straight away, and switch it off again at any time. Every photo is reviewed by our team before anyone else can see it. You can choose not to upload a photo at all.

๐Ÿ“ธ

Screenshots and misuse of private content

We cannot technically stop someone taking a screenshot on their own device. Our Terms prohibit sharing another memberโ€™s details or photos without their consent. If someone shares or misuses your private content, report them from inside the app or email us. We can investigate, and suspend or remove accounts that break the rules.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

Admin access to conversations

Conversations between members are private from other members. A small number of authorised Florence administrators can open conversations to review reports, investigate misconduct and keep members safe. We do not use your conversations for advertising and do not sell them.

๐Ÿ—„๏ธ

Account deletion and data retention

We keep your information while your account is active. To delete your account, start a request from the app (Delete Account) or contact us, and our team will process it. We then delete or anonymise your personal information, including your profile and photos, and cancel any subscription. We may keep limited records we are legally required to keep, such as invoices and payment records, and security logs needed to prevent abuse. When a couple agrees to proceed to marriage, their profiles may be archived.

๐Ÿ“ฌ

Earlier waitlist sign-ups

The waitlist is closed, but people who joined it earlier gave us their name, email, optional phone type and optional country. We use them only to email you about Florenceโ€™s launch and we do not sell them. To be removed, email us and we will delete your details.

๐ŸŒ

International users

Florence is operated from Australia and used by members in many countries. Your information may be processed by our service providers in other countries. Where we handle personal information we aim to follow the Australian Privacy Principles, and we will honour access, correction and deletion requests from members wherever they live. These terms are governed by the laws of Australia.

โš–๏ธ

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your personal information at any time by contacting us. Until your profile is approved you can edit it directly in the app. Once approved, your profile details become view-only to keep them accurate and trustworthy, and any change is made through the Help Center, where our team updates it for you. Two things you can always change yourself: your profile photo (a new photo stays hidden from other members until our team has reviewed it) and whether your photo is shown before a mutual match.

๐Ÿ”’

Data security

We use industry-standard safeguards, including encryption in transit and access controls, to protect your information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse.

๐Ÿง’

Children's privacy

Florence is intended for adults seeking marriage and is not directed at anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.

๐Ÿ“

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, weโ€™ll notify you through the app or by email.

We do not sell your personal information. Full stop.
