Effective date: October 9, 2026
This policy explains what Amo Per La Vita LLC ("Mia", "we") collects when you use the Mia app and website, how we use it, who we share it with and the choices you have. Questions: support@miadatingapp.com.
1. What we collect
You give us
- Account: mobile phone number (required, verified by text message); optionally an email and a linked Apple or Google sign-in.
- Profile (shown to other members): first name, age (calculated from your birthdate), gender, who you'd like to meet, city, hometown, occupation, bio, Italian roots (regions), citizenships, languages, what you're looking for, height, kids, willingness to travel, Instagram handle (if you add it), photos, interests and prompts, and your verification status.
- Private (never shown on your profile): last name, birthdate, the age range you're looking for, your "FamBlock" surnames, notification preferences and, for Mia Ultra members, preference-boost choices. Your last name is used only for FamBlock (to avoid matching you with family).
- Location: only the city you choose. We store that city's approximate coordinates to suggest people nearby. Mia does not use your device's GPS.
- Messages and activity: likes, passes, matches, messages, Direct Message requests, blocks and reports.
- Verification: a short live video check, of which we keep only one still frame (your verification selfie) — or, instead, a selfie making a simple gesture, which a person on our team compares with your photos. See the Biometric Data Policy.
- Purchases: what you bought and its status (from Apple via RevenueCat). We never receive your card details.
- Support: what you send us.
Collected automatically
- Device push-notification token, app version, time zone, language, last-active time.
- When you agree to a policy or acknowledge a safety notice: the version, the time, and a one-way hash of your IP address.
- When you receive a safety alert: when it was sent and when you saw it.
2. How we use it
- To run Mia: create your account, review profiles, choose your daily profiles, show your profile, deliver messages and notifications, and provide paid features.
- To keep members safe: detect fake or underage accounts, review reports, enforce our Guidelines and prevent banned members from returning.
- To process purchases and restore them.
- To communicate with you about your account, safety and changes to our policies.
- To comply with the law and protect our rights.
We don't sell your personal information and don't use it for third-party advertising.
3. What other members see
Your public profile (section 1) is visible to members selected for you. Your messages are visible to the people you send them to. Blocked members and anyone in your FamBlock list won't see you.
Verified members are shown only to other verified members. While a verification of yours is waiting for our team's decision, you're shown only to other members who are also waiting. If you haven't verified, your profile isn't shown to other members.
If we remove a member's account, members who exchanged messages with them are told that member's first name, when they last talked and the general reason (for example, a suspected fake identity or scam), so they can protect themselves. See our Safety tips.
4. Who we share it with
Only service providers who process data for us under contract:
| Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Supabase (hosting, United States) | Database, sign-in, file storage, server functions |
| Twilio | Sending sign-in codes by text message |
| Amazon Web Services (Rekognition) | Checking that the verification video shows a real person (Face Liveness), comparing a verification selfie to your photos, and new photos to your verified photos; and may automatically check uploaded photos for prohibited content |
| Google (Places API) | City search when you set your location (receives what you type, not who you are) |
| RevenueCat and Apple | Processing and verifying purchases |
| Apple, Google | Optional sign-in |
| Expo, Apple, Google (Firebase) | Delivering push notifications |
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect someone's safety, to investigate fraud or abuse, or as part of a merger or sale of the business (with notice to you).
5. How long we keep it
- While your account is active, we keep your information to provide the Service.
- When you delete your account, your profile is hidden immediately and your data is permanently deleted after a 30-day grace period (signing back in during that time cancels deletion). This includes your photos, selfies, profile and purchase-provider record.
- What remains after deletion: messages you sent stay visible to the recipient, labelled "Deleted member"; reports made about you (with a snapshot of the reported content) and moderation records are kept for safety; and a one-way hash of your phone number is kept if you were banned, so you can't rejoin. Purchase records may be kept as required for tax and accounting.
- Verification selfies are deleted much sooner — see the Biometric Data Policy.
6. Your choices and rights
- Edit your profile at any time; hide yourself by pausing your profile; turn notifications off.
- Delete your account in the app (Settings) or at miadatingapp.com/account/delete.
- Depending on where you live (for example California, Colorado, Virginia, the EU/UK), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or get a copy of your data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. Email support@miadatingapp.com and we'll respond within the time the law requires. We won't discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
7. Security
We use encryption in transit, access controls and row-level security in our database. No system is perfectly secure; tell us right away if you think your account has been compromised.
8. Age
Mia is only for people 18 and over. We remove accounts we believe belong to anyone younger.
9. International transfers
Mia is operated from the United States and your data is stored there. If you use Mia from elsewhere, your data is transferred to the U.S. under appropriate safeguards.
10. Changes
We'll post updates here and tell you in the app about material changes.
