Why it matters

Sharing data across a large corporate family means information you provide to Tinder may be accessible to dozens of other entities beyond Tinder, significantly expanding the footprint of your personal data.

Consumer impact

Tinder collects extensive personal data including precise geolocation, sensitive attributes such as sexual orientation and religion, biometric data for photo verification, and private messages, which are shared with corporate affiliates, advertising partners, and law enforcement under defined conditions. Data may be retained for periods after account deletion, and users' behavioral data is used for targeted advertising and automated matching decisions. You can request a copy of your data, ask for deletion, or adjust privacy settings by visiting Tinder's privacy portal at https://account.gotinder.com/data.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    To request deletion of your data from Tinder and limit sharing with affiliates, visit https://account.gotinder.com/data and submit a deletion request.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC has jurisdiction over deceptive or unfair data sharing practices among corporate affiliates under Section 5 of the FTC Act.
