PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: July 4, 2026

INTRODUCTION

Celebs & Me ("we," "us," or "our") is a mobile application that allows users to discover locations where celebrities have been spotted, check in at those locations, and connect with celebrities through personalized video greetings. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use our app and services.

By creating an account or using our services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our services.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect the following types of information:

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address, full name, and a password. We also collect a date of birth to verify that users meet our minimum age requirement.

Profile Information

You may optionally provide a display name, username, bio, and profile photo. Celebrity users may provide additional information such as social media handles, category, and verification details.

Location Data

When you view spots on the map or check in at a location, we collect and process location data, including latitude and longitude coordinates of celebrity spots and your check-in locations.

Photos and Content

When you post a check-in or a celebrity posts a spot, we collect and store the photos you upload along with any captions or descriptions you provide.

Payment Information

When you make a purchase (such as a subscription, greeting request, or venue partnership), payment processing is handled by our payment provider (Base44 Payments). We do not store your full credit card or payment card details on our servers. We may retain transaction records, including the amount, date, and status of your purchase.

Usage Data

We automatically collect information about how you interact with our app, including device information, IP address, app activity, and engagement metrics.

HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

With Other Users

Your display name, username, profile photo, check-ins, and other content you post are visible to other users of the app. Celebrity profiles and spot content are publicly displayed.

Service Providers

We share information with third-party service providers who help us operate our app, including payment processing (Base44 Payments), cloud storage, analytics, and hosting services. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and may only use it to provide services to us.

Celebrity Greetings

When you request a personalized video greeting, your name, photo, and the details you provide are shared with the celebrity to fulfill your request.

Legal Compliance

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, subpoena, or government regulation, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, the safety of any person, or to detect and prevent fraud.

Business Transfers

In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred. We will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

DATA RETENTION

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. If you delete your account, we will remove your profile and associated content from our active systems within a reasonable period. Certain information may be retained in backup systems or as required by law.

LOCATION DATA

Location data is central to the Celebs & Me experience. Celebrity spot locations are intentionally delayed before being revealed to protect the safety and privacy of celebrities. We use location data to display spots on the map, calculate proximity, and enable check-in functionality. You can control location permissions through your device settings at any time.

DATA SECURITY

We implement reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
