Your data, explained plainly
Privacy Policy.
Effective April 8, 2026
What we collect
When you create an account we store your email address, name, and optional profile details (bio, age, neighborhood, profile photo). When you use the app we collect your approximate location (latitude/longitude) to show nearby plans.
How we use it
- Show plans near you on the map
- Show your profile to other users
- Send push notifications you opt into (join requests, messages, etc.)
- Improve the app and fix bugs
Who sees your data
Other Pal users see your name, photo, bio, and any plans you post. We don’t sell your data and we don’t share it with advertisers.
Location data
We ask for location so we can show plans nearby. Your last-known coordinates are stored so the app can load relevant content on launch. You can turn off location in your device settings at any time — the app still works, but we can’t show you what’s nearby.
Data retention
Plans auto-delete 24 hours after they start. Your account stays until you ask us to delete it.
Account deletion
You can delete your account and all associated data from Profile → Settings → Delete Account, or by emailing support@getpal.xyz. Deletion is permanent and processed within 48 hours.
Children
Pal is not intended for users under 17. We don’t knowingly collect data from children.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the app or by email.
