Privacy Policy

Draft for legal review. This plain-language draft has not yet been reviewed by a lawyer and may change. It does not name a legal entity, address or governing jurisdiction because those have not been confirmed.

This explains the information used by the current Wingmate service. Share only what you’re comfortable sharing, and avoid sensitive personal details.

Your account and profile

Registration uses your full name, email and password for your account. Wingmate stores your profile and membership dates to provide account access and the 14-day trial. Your email, account full name and membership dates are not included in public discovery.

What other people can see

Your profile starts private. If you enable discovery and save a completed profile, your display name, bio, optional area and interests can be seen by anyone browsing Explore, including signed-out visitors. Turning discovery off removes you from Explore; existing connections can still see those shared fields. Public information may be copied by people who see it.

Connections, messages and reports

Connection records are accessible in the app only to the two participants. Messages are available only within accepted, unblocked connections. Removing or blocking a connection deletes that conversation from Wingmate; it cannot erase copies already made by another person. Messages are not described as end-to-end encrypted.

Block lists and submitted reports are not public. Reports are stored with the reporting account, the reported account, reason and any details you submit. We do not promise active moderation or a response.

AI Wingmate drafts

AI assistance is optional. It is used only when both people in an accepted conversation have switched AI on. When a member asks for a draft, the recent conversation, display names and that member’s saved AI personality notes are sent to Vercel AI Gateway and its selected model provider to prepare a suggested reply. The draft is private to its owner and is not posted unless that person reviews and approves it. Either person can switch AI off at any time. Do not include passwords, financial details, health information or other sensitive information in a conversation or AI request.

Usage measurement

Wingmate uses the existing Lovable measurement service for page visits, performance and errors. We also record non-personal milestones such as signup submission, profile completion and connection requests. These milestones do not include names, email addresses, profile answers or message content. Session replay masks page text and inputs; where consent controls apply, measurement follows those choices.

Storage and your choices

Wingmate is hosted on Vercel. Neon Auth handles account sign-in and Neon PostgreSQL stores profiles, membership dates, connections, messages, safety reports and billing status. Stripe processes any Plus subscription payment when checkout is available; Wingmate stores subscription identifiers and status, not your full card number. Your browser stores sign-in information to keep your session active. Sign out on shared devices. Profile photo uploads are not currently available.

You can edit your profile, disable discovery, remove connections and unblock members in the app. Self-service account deletion and a public privacy contact channel are not yet available. A complete retention schedule has not been established; we do not promise automatic deletion of all account or report data.
