• In-platform communication tools to help you connect with other users
• Customizable discovery settings to fine-tune what and who you see
• Saved preferences and history to improve future recommendations

This privacy policy applies to all users of our platform, whether you're creating a public profile, browsing content, or actively engaging with other community members.
