Last Updated: June 13, 2020

This Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices of 6App in connection with the 6App mobile application (the “App”) and 6app.live website (the “Site”).

If you decide not to read this entire Privacy Policy, we want you to walk away with a few key points about 6App privacy practices:

The App is provide dating service for adult persons.
Due to the limited processing resources available on mobile devices, we use third-party cloud providers – specifically, Google Cloud Platform and Sight Engine (Real time photo moderating ) – to process and edit photographs.
The App only uploads to the cloud the photographs.
Photographs are temporarily cached on the cloud servers during the editing process, and encrypted using a key stored locally on your mobile device.
We do not use the photographs you provide when you use the App for any reason other than to provide you with the portrait editing functionality of the App.

If you have any questions about our privacy practices, please email contact@6app.dating
