Privacy Policy

Last updated: 17 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information CollabMe ("CollabMe", "we", "us") collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to the CollabMe mobile app and the collabme.app website (together, the "Service").

The short version: We collect the information you give us and the content you post so we can operate CollabMe and connect you with other creatives. We do not sell your personal data. You can edit or delete your profile and account at any time.

1. Information you provide

Account & profile: name, username, email address, password (stored in hashed form by our authentication provider), date of birth, and the profile details you add such as bio, role, skills, location, portfolio links, and resume.
Content you create: posts, photos, videos, audio releases, stories, comments, likes, reviews, and messages you send to other users.
Applications & requests: job applications, collaboration requests, and account-verification applications you submit.
Support communications: information you send us when you contact support.

2. Information collected automatically

Usage data: how you interact with the Service, such as content you view, swipe, or engage with, used to operate features like the collaboration deck and activity feed.
Device & technical data: device type, operating system, app version, and diagnostic data used to keep the app stable and secure.

3. Device permissions

With your permission, CollabMe accesses:

Camera and microphone — to capture photos, videos, and audio you choose to post.
Photo library — to let you select and share existing media.

You can grant or revoke these permissions at any time in your device settings. Denying a permission only disables the related feature.

4. How we use your information

To create and operate your account and profile.
To display your content to the audience you choose and to power feeds, search, stories, messaging, jobs, and collaboration matching.
To send you notifications about activity relevant to you.
To keep the Service safe — detecting fraud, abuse, and violations of our Terms.
To respond to your support requests and comply with legal obligations.

5. How we share information

We do not sell your personal data. We share information only:

With other users, according to your privacy settings — for example, your public profile and posts are visible to the audience you select.
With service providers who process data on our behalf (such as cloud hosting, database, and authentication providers) under agreements that require them to protect it.
For legal reasons, when required by law or to protect the rights, safety, and security of our users and the Service.

6. Data retention

We keep your information for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we delete or de-identify your personal data, except where we are required to retain it to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements.

7. Your rights and choices

Access & edit: view and update your profile information at any time in the app.
Delete: delete individual posts, or delete your entire account from Settings. Deleting your account removes your profile and associated content from the Service.
Privacy controls: control who can see your posts, stories, and who can contact you in Settings > Privacy.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or CCPA, including the right to access, correct, or export your data. Contact us to exercise these rights.

8. Children

CollabMe is not intended for anyone under 13 years of age, and you must meet the minimum age required in your country to use the Service. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will remove it.

9. Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. International users

Your information may be processed and stored in countries other than your own. Where required, we take steps to ensure your data receives an adequate level of protection.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify you in the app.
