The obligation is qualified by 'commercially reasonable efforts,' meaning deletion is not absolute or guaranteed, which limits the protection afforded to children whose data was inadvertently collected.
The updated policy now provides explicit disclosure of which categories of personal information are collected and which parties receive each category. Previously, the policy required readers to consult other sections to identify this information. The updated table format discloses that identifiers such as name and email address, visual information including uploaded images, and geolocation data may be shared with other users, vendors, service providers, login integration partners, social media widgets, and affiliates. This change provides clearer visibility into data sharing practices without altering what data is collected or shared, but rather how that information is disclosed.
View change record →The updated policy no longer provides a single consolidated view of which specific categories of recipients receive which types of personal data. Previously, users could see in one table that identifiers, commercial information, geolocation data, images, account credentials, and precise location were shared with specific recipient categories such as vendors, service providers, other users, login partners, social media widgets, and tracking technology providers. The revised policy instead directs users to review other sections of the document to find this information. The specificity and accessibility of this disclosure has been reduced, though the underlying data-sharing practices may remain unchanged.
View change record →Parents or guardians should be aware that Ideogram's commitment to deleting a child's data is limited to commercially reasonable efforts, not a guarantee of deletion.

We keep some data until you delete your Google Account, such as information about how often you use Gemini Apps.
If you decide to delete your Profile, it will no longer be visible to other Grindr users and your personal information will generally be deleted within 28 days.
We collect and keep personal data only as needed or allowed for the purposes set out in this Statement, based on the reason we collected the personal data in the first instance and what is permitted under the laws that apply to the processing.
