Covia Privacy Policy

Covia may collect information you provide directly, including your name, email address, age, gender, city or location preference, profile bio, profile photos, media uploads, education or work details, plan signals, interests, and other profile information you choose to add.

If you sign in with Apple or Google, we may receive the account identifier, email address, display name, and authentication information those providers make available. We do not receive your Apple or Google password.

Covia may also collect activity created inside the app, including discovery preferences, connection or plan requests, messages, media shared in conversations, pass or block actions, reports, moderation records, subscription status, and account deletion requests.

We use information we collect to:

• create, authenticate, and maintain your Covia account;
• show your profile to other users where appropriate;
• power discovery, explore, inbox, connection, and messaging features;
• process plan or connection requests between users;
• store and display photos, videos, messages, and profile details;
• support moderation, safety, reporting, blocking, and account enforcement;
• manage subscription status and premium access;
• respond to support, privacy, legal, and account questions; and
• maintain reliability, prevent abuse, and improve product quality.

Profile photos, media, profile text, plan signals, city, and other profile details may be visible to other Covia users as part of the app experience.

Media you send in chat or connection flows may be visible to the recipient and may be stored so the conversation can function. You should not upload or send content you do not have the right to share.

Covia supports plan requests, connection requests, inbox decisions, and conversations between users. We process this information to deliver messages, show request status, maintain conversation history, and provide safety or moderation controls.

We may review reports, blocks, or moderation events when necessary to protect users, enforce our Terms, or respond to safety issues.

Covia Pro features may be offered through Apple In-App Purchase. Apple processes billing, renewal, cancellation, refunds, and payment details under Apple's systems and policies.

We may receive limited subscription information from Apple, such as product identifier, entitlement status, renewal state, and transaction status needed to unlock or restore premium access.

We may use third-party providers to operate Covia, including:

• Apple, for Sign in with Apple and In-App Purchase billing;
• Google, for Google sign-in;
• Supabase or similar database, authentication, and storage providers;
• hosting and infrastructure providers used to operate backend services;
• analytics, diagnostics, or monitoring tools used to understand reliability and crashes; and
• support or email tools used to respond to user requests.

These providers process information only as needed to support Covia, subject to their own terms and privacy practices.

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information with service providers that help operate Covia, with other users as part of the app experience, if required by law, to protect users or the service, to investigate abuse or safety issues, or as part of a business transfer such as a merger, acquisition, financing, or asset sale.

Covia may retain reports, blocks, moderation notes, account status changes, and related safety records to enforce rules, prevent repeated abuse, protect users, and maintain service integrity.

If your account is suspended, restricted, deleted, or reported, we may retain limited records where reasonably necessary for safety, legal, fraud prevention, or dispute resolution purposes.

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Covia, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, prevent abuse, and support safety operations.

Some deleted content may remain temporarily in backups or logs. Safety, fraud prevention, subscription, and legal records may be retained longer where necessary.

• You can update certain profile information in the app.
• You can manage photos and media through profile editing tools where available.
• You can block or report users through in-app safety controls where available.
• You can manage or cancel subscriptions through your Apple Account settings.
• You can request account deletion through the app or by contacting us.
• You can contact us with privacy, access, correction, or deletion questions.

Covia is intended for users who are 18 or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that a child under 13 has provided personal information, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Covia may be operated from the United States and may use providers located in other countries. If you use Covia from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions.
