Privacy Policy
Last updated July 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Whisper ("Whisper", "we", "us"), operated by Whisper LLC, a Texas limited liability company, collects, uses, shares, and protects your personal data when you use the Whisper mobile application and meetwhisper.app (together, the "Service"). Whisper is a dating and lifestyle service for adults aged 18 and over. By using the Service you agree to this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
2. Data We Collect
Information you give us: your name, email address, date of birth (to confirm you are 18+), gender and who you are hoping to meet, city, bio and prompts, dating intention and lifestyle details, photos, video (including your Reveal Reel), voice prompts, and the selfie you take for verification. Information generated as you use the Service: matches, messages and media you exchange, likes/passes, dates you plan, and your approximate or precise location where you enable location features (Whisper Now, Crossed Paths, and the map). Automatic data: device and app information, log data, IP address, and usage analytics (screens viewed, features used). Purchase data: your subscription status (payments are processed by Apple; we do not receive your card details).
3. How We Use Your Data
We use your data to: create and operate your profile; suggest compatible people and power matching, Whisper Now, and Crossed Paths; deliver messages and media; provide AI features; process subscriptions and Premium entitlements; keep the community safe (verification, moderation, and fraud/abuse prevention); respond to reports and grievances; send you service and (where permitted) marketing communications you can opt out of; comply with law; and improve the Service. We do not sell your personal information.
4. Legal Bases
Where applicable law requires a legal basis (including India’s DPDP Act and similar laws), we process your data based on your consent, the performance of our contract with you (our Terms), our legitimate interests in operating and securing the Service, and compliance with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent at any time, though some features may not work without the related data.
5. AI Features
Whisper offers AI-powered features, including Whisper AI (assistant), suggested icebreakers, and curated date ideas. To provide these, relevant content — such as your profile text, interests, and the conversation context you choose to use them with — is processed by our third-party AI provider, Anthropic, acting as our processor, solely to generate responses and suggestions for you. We do not use your private conversations to train third-party models, and our AI provider is bound by contractual confidentiality and security obligations. AI output is for convenience only and is not professional advice.
6. Verification & Content Moderation
To keep Whisper safe, photos and videos may be screened using automated moderation (which may involve third-party services such as AWS Rekognition), and text you post publicly (like your bio) may be screened for policy violations. For photo verification, your live selfie is compared to your primary photo and is not stored. Content that violates our policies may be blocked, removed, or flagged for human review. Private 1:1 messages are not pre-screened; safety there is handled through reporting and blocking.
7. How We Share Data
Profile details you choose to show are visible to other members. We share data with service providers strictly to operate the Service, including: Supabase (hosting, database, authentication, storage); Anthropic (AI features); AWS (photo verification/moderation); Sentry (crash diagnostics); our analytics provider (usage data); RevenueCat and Apple (subscriptions); Google (Places/Maps for city and venue search); and, where you use them, Uber (ride vouchers) and a video-calling provider. We may disclose information when required by law, to enforce our Terms, or to protect the safety of our members. We do not sell your personal data or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
8. Cookies, Tracking & Advertising
Whisper does not use third-party advertising SDKs and does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites. We use only first-party, privacy-preserving analytics to understand and improve the Service. The website may use essential cookies needed to function.
9. Data Retention
We keep your personal data while your account is active and as needed to provide the Service. When you delete your account we remove your profile and associated personal data, except limited records we must retain to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, or enforce our Terms. Moderation and safety records may be retained longer where necessary.
10. Security
We protect your data with access controls, encryption in transit, and platform safeguards. Photos and videos shared in chats are stored in private, access-controlled storage available only to the two people in that conversation; your Reveal Reel is end-to-end encrypted and viewable only by people you grant access to. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work continuously to protect your information.
11. International Data Transfers
We are based in the United States and use service providers that may process data in the US and other countries. Where you are located outside the US (including in India), your data may be transferred to and processed in the US and elsewhere. We rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers as required by applicable law.
12. Your Privacy Rights
You can review and edit your information at any time in the app, and you can permanently delete your account from Settings, which removes your profile and associated personal data. Depending on where you live, you may also have rights to access, correct, export (portability), restrict, or object to processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these, use Settings → Your data & privacy, or email privacy@meetwhisper.app. We respond within the time required by applicable law (generally within 30 days). We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
13. United States — CCPA/CPRA
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use and disclose it, to access and delete it, to correct inaccuracies, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We do not sell or share your personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA, and we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information beyond what is permitted for providing the Service. To make a request, email privacy@meetwhisper.app.
14. India — DPDP Act & Grievance Officer
If you are in India, we process your personal data in accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. You may access, correct, update, and erase your data, withdraw consent, and nominate another person to exercise your rights in the event of death or incapacity. In accordance with the Information Technology Rules, 2021, you may raise concerns or grievances with our Grievance Officer, whose contact details are published in the app under Settings → Grievance redressal and at grievance@meetwhisper.app. We acknowledge grievances within 24 hours and aim to resolve them within 15 days.
15. Children
Whisper is intended only for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If we learn that a person under 18 has created an account, we will delete it and the associated data.
16. Third-Party Links & Services
The Service may link to or integrate third-party services (such as maps, ride-hailing, or reservation platforms). Those services are governed by their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices.
17. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you in the app or by email and update the “last updated” date. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
