PyaarWoW Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 01, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how PyaarWoW ("we," "us," or "our") collects, safeguards, utilizes, and discloses the information you ("user" or "you") provide when accessing or using the PyaarWoW mobile application, associated websites, and all services offered (collectively, the "Services"). It also outlines your choices regarding your data and how you can manage it. We encourage you to read this document thoroughly to understand our data handling practices.
I. Information We Collect
In the process of delivering our Services, we may gather, store, and process the following categories of information about you:
- Account Information: Details you submit when creating an account, upgrading services, or configuring profile settings. This includes your contact number, email, chosen username, and optional details like gender, date of birth, and location. If you register or log in via a third-party account (e.g., Google, Facebook), we receive information authorized by that platform to facilitate the connection.
- Device and Technical Data: Information about the device and network you use to connect to our Services. This may encompass IP address, device model, operating system version, system settings, browser type, network connection type, and unique device identifiers. This data assists us in diagnosing issues, optimizing performance, and maintaining security.
- Contact List Access: If you grant permission, we may access your device's contact list to help you find and connect with friends who also use our Services, such as for sending invitations or messages.
- User-Generated Content: Information you create, upload, or share on the platform, including but not limited to profile photos, text chats, audio/video call content (if stored or processed), comments, and other content you generate.
- Payment and Transaction Details: If you choose to make purchases within the Services, we or our designated payment processors collect billing and payment details. This includes payment method information (e.g., card details, third-party wallet info), transaction history, and records of your in-app currency (e.g., coins).
- Usage and Log Data: Information about your activity and interactions with our Services. This includes actions taken (e.g., initiating calls, adding friends, viewing profiles), session duration, feature usage frequency, search queries, crash reports, and performance diagnostics. We analyze this data to improve, personalize, and secure our Services.
- Location Information: With your explicit consent, we may collect precise or approximate location data from your device to provide location-based features, such as connecting with nearby users or filtering content by region.
- Information for Safety and Integrity: We may collect data to maintain a safe environment, including to detect, prevent, and investigate fraud, spam, abuse, security risks, and violations of our Terms of Service. This may include analyzing patterns in usage or device data to generate a trust score.
- Clipboard Access: For your convenience (e.g., to quickly paste a referral code or link), the app may temporarily access your device's clipboard. This data is used for the singular purpose of facilitating the paste action and is not stored or retained.
- Other Voluntarily Provided Information: Any additional information you choose to provide to us, such as through customer support inquiries or feedback surveys.
II. How We Collect Your Information
Your information is collected in the following ways:
- Directly from You: When you register an account, use the Services (e.g., enable microphone/camera for calls, access storage for file sharing, or upload photos), communicate with us, or respond to surveys.
- Automatically Through Your Use: As you navigate and interact with our Services, we automatically collect usage, device, and log data through cookies and similar tracking technologies.
- From Third Parties: We may receive information about you from other users (e.g., if they invite you), from third-party services you connect (e.g., social login platforms), or from partners for security verification and fraud prevention purposes.
III. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following business purposes:
- To provide, operate, maintain, and improve the PyaarWoW Services.
- To authenticate your account, facilitate communication, and provide customer support.
- To process transactions, send confirmations, and manage your account and virtual currency.
- To personalize your experience, such as suggesting connections or content.

- To communicate with you about updates, security alerts, and administrative messages.
- For analytics and research to understand how our Services are used and to develop new features.
IV. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:
- With Your Consent: We share information when you direct us to or give explicit permission.
- With Service Providers: We engage trusted third-party companies and individuals (e.g., for cloud hosting, data analytics, payment processing, and customer support) to perform tasks on our behalf. They are contractually obligated to handle your data securely and only as instructed.
- For Legal Reasons: We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect against harm to rights, property, or safety.
- Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as a business asset, subject to the promises made in this policy.
- With Partners: In cases where we jointly offer services with a partner, we may share information as necessary for that offering, under strict confidentiality terms.
V. International Data Transfers
Our services are global, and your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than your own, including Singapore. We implement appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, to ensure your data remains protected according to the standards described in this policy, regardless of where it is processed.
VI. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (e.g., for tax, accounting, or legal obligations). When retention is no longer necessary, we will securely delete or anonymize your data.
VII. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, which may include:
- Access: The right to know what personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification: The right to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Erasure: The right to request deletion of your personal data under certain conditions.
- Restriction of Processing: The right to limit how we use your data.
- Data Portability: The right to receive your data in a structured, commonly used format and to transmit it to another controller.
- Objection: The right to object to our processing of your data based on legitimate interests.
- Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
You can exercise many of these rights directly through your account settings. For all other requests, please contact us at the email below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe, not exceeding 15 business days for standard requests.
VIII. Account Deletion
You may request to delete your account. Due to the irreversible nature of account deletion and to prevent unauthorized or fraudulent deletion, we may require identity verification (e.g., government-issued ID) to process the request. Information provided for verification will be used solely for security purposes, kept confidential, and will be desensitized or deleted afterward. Upon deletion, we will remove or anonymize your personal data in accordance with this policy and applicable laws, though some data may be retained for specific legal purposes.
X. Minors' Privacy
Our Services are not intended for individuals under the age of 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we become aware that a minor has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. If you believe we might have information from or about a minor, please contact us immediately.
XI. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, remember your preferences, understand how our Services are used, and for advertising purposes. You can control cookie settings through your browser. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some Services. Cookie-based opt-outs are typically not effective on mobile apps, but you can manage ad preferences through your device settings (e.g., on Android or iOS).
XII. California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended, you have additional rights, including the right to know, delete, and opt-out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information. PyaarWoW does not sell your personal information as defined under the CCPA. We will not retain, use, or disclose your personal information for purposes unrelated to those described in this policy, except as permitted by the CCPA.
XIII. Third-Party Links and SDKs
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites or integrate third-party Software Development Kits (SDKs) for analytics, payment processing, advertising, and functionality. These third parties have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them. We are not responsible for the content or practices of linked sites or third-party SDKs. We select SDK partners carefully and require them to protect your information, but we do not control their independent data collection practices.
XIV. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top. Your continued use of the Services after such changes constitutes your acknowledgment and acceptance of the updated policy.
