Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2025

At Trans Hookup, your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal data when you use our website or related services. We are committed to maintaining a safe, inclusive, and transparent environment for all users — including trans women, trans girls, and their admirers.

By using our website, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the site.


1. Information We Collect

We collect personal and non-personal data to provide better services, maintain security, and improve user experience.

Personal Information You Provide

  • Name, username, age, and gender identity
  • Email address and password
  • Profile information (photos, bio, preferences, location)

When you visit our site, we automatically collect technical and usage information such as:

  • IP address and browser type
  • Device information (OS, model, language settings)
  • Pages visited, time spent, and click patterns
  • Referral URLs and session statistics

This helps us understand how users engage with the site and detect potential security risks.


2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to operate our dating service effectively, improve user safety, and personalize your experience. Specifically, we use data to:

  • Create and manage your account
  • Match you with other compatible users
  • Send notifications and messages related to your activity
  • Respond to inquiries, feedback, or support requests
  • Monitor site performance and prevent fraudulent behavior
  • Provide customer support and moderation

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help us recognize you and improve your experience.

We use cookies for:

  • Authentication: Keep you logged in securely.
  • Preferences: Remember your language and settings.
  • Analytics: Track site usage and improve performance.
  • Advertising: Display relevant offers or promotions.

Third-Party Cookies

We may use third-party tools like Google Analytics or Facebook Pixel to help us understand traffic patterns and ad effectiveness. These services may also set cookies in your browser.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect some site functionality.


4. Third-Party Services and Tools

Trans Hookup may integrate trusted third-party services for analytics, payments, communication, and advertising. These may include:

  • Google Analytics
  • Stripe or PayPal for secure payments
  • Email newsletter services (e.g., Mailchimp)
  • Cloud hosting and security providers

These third parties operate under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them before engaging with their services.

We only partner with vendors who maintain industry-standard data protection practices and comply with GDPR, CCPA, or equivalent privacy frameworks.


5. Data Storage and Security

We take data protection seriously. Your information is stored securely on encrypted servers located in jurisdictions with adequate data protection laws.

Security Measures Include:

  • SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption
  • Regular system audits and firewalls
  • Limited access to authorized personnel only
  • Strong password protection and hashing
  • Regular data backups

While no system is entirely foolproof, we continually update our security protocols to safeguard your information.


6. How Long We Keep Your Data

We retain your data for as long as necessary to provide our services or comply with legal obligations.

  • Account data is kept while your account remains active.
  • Once deleted, we remove your profile and associated information within a reasonable timeframe, except for data required by law (e.g., fraud prevention, dispute resolution).

You may request data deletion at any time (see Section 9 below).


7. Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. However, we may share limited information in these cases:

  • With service providers: For site operation (e.g., hosting, payment processing).
  • With legal authorities: When required by law, court order, or to prevent fraud or abuse.
  • With consent: If you choose to share specific information publicly (e.g., on your dating profile).

We ensure that all third parties receiving your data are bound by confidentiality and security obligations.


8. International Data Transfers

As our servers or partners may operate in various countries, your information may be transferred across borders. By using our site, you acknowledge that your data may be processed in other jurisdictions, which may have different data protection laws.

We ensure all international transfers follow lawful mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent safeguards.

Trans Hookup is intended for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If we discover that a user under 18 has created an account, we will delete the account and associated information immediately.

Parents or guardians who believe a child’s data has been collected should contact us for removal.


11. Affiliate Disclosure

Trans Hookup may include affiliate links in blog posts, newsletters, or promotions. This means we may earn a small commission if you purchase a product or service through one of our links — at no extra cost to you.

We only promote products or services we believe are relevant, respectful, and beneficial to our users. Affiliate partnerships do not influence our editorial integrity or user experience.


12. Third-Party Links

When you create an account or subscribe to updates, you may receive:

  • Account-related notifications
  • Match or message alerts
  • Marketing or promotional content (if opted in)

You can unsubscribe at any time using the link provided in every marketing email. Transactional or account-related messages, however, cannot be opted out of for security reasons.


14. User-Generated Content and Messaging

You control the content you post on your profile or in messages. However, please note:

  • Content shared publicly may be visible to other users.
  • We reserve the right to review or remove content that violates our Terms of Use.

We are not responsible for interactions or content shared between users but encourage reporting any inappropriate behavior.
