Frequently asked questions (4)

Use Profile → Privacy to manage visibility, distance sharing, and related controls the product offers. Those settings shape who can find you in discovery and how much location context others see.

Blocking someone cuts interaction both ways where enforced. You can also adjust preferences for who you want to meet so fewer wrong-fit profiles see or engage with you.

Policy-level details — what we collect, why, and retention — live in the Privacy policy. California residents have additional request rights through the CCPA request center.

California residents can start a CCPA request from the CCPA request center. That flow is built for access, deletion, and related rights where California law applies.

Other members can contact support for privacy questions or data requests. We may ask you to verify identity before releasing account information.

We respond within the timelines required by applicable law. Complex cases (many linked records, legal holds) can take the full allowed window — use the tracking or ticket channel so nothing is lost in email threads.

Blocking cuts interaction both ways. Event hosts and confirmed attendees may see limited RSVP information for that event — enough to run the door list, not a public dump of your full profile.

Staff may access account data for safety, support, and legal compliance. That access is for operations, not for browsing profiles socially.

  • More detail: Privacy policy and Profile → Privacy settings.

See our Privacy policy and CCPA disclosures for how we handle “sale” and “share” under California law. Those documents define the terms in the legal sense, which can differ from everyday language.

If California rights apply to you, use the request center to exercise opt-out or related choices. Do not rely on rumors from other apps — use the disclosures for Friend in LA specifically.

For questions about a specific vendor, cookie banner, or marketing partner, open a support ticket after you have read the policy section that applies.
