READ ME FIRST BEFORE PROCEEDING – THE PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We start right off by collecting Personal Information as soon as you start interacting with the I‘m Coming Properties on the web, by downloading the app, liking us on social media, or contacting us directly. We may collect Personal Information directly from you, directly from your device, or from third parties. We must collect some Personal Information from you to provide you with and operate our properties; sometimes providing Personal Information is optional. If you are not comfortable with this, then please leave and block this site or app. From continued use, by moving forward using the app or the website you fully acknowledge these terms, risks, and responsibilities.

Please read this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service (“TOS”) carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy or our TOS, do not use or visit the Service. By using or visiting the Service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and our TOS.

CONTINUED – INFORMATION WE COLLECT

PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE

While the following provides examples of the Personal Information that I‘m Coming collects, note that not all I‘m Coming Properties collect all of the data listed below.

  • To use the I‘m Coming Services, you are required to provide Personal Information (i.e., email or a third-party social log-in like Facebook or Google, phone number, and date of birth) for account registration and/or verification purposes. If you utilize a third-party social log-in, the third-party provides us with access to certain information that they have about you (e.g., display name and email address) for authentication and account creation purposes. We may collect government-issued identification, postal address, signature, and phone number to assist with account authentication processes (e.g., password changes, email address updates, underage ban appeals, and profile deletions when a user no longer has access to their I‘m Coming account or the email address used to create it) and we may also collect email address and a photo of yourself (i.e., a "selfie") to verify impersonation reports.

PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO PROVIDE

  • Profile Information. When you create an I‘m Coming account, you choose to provide us Personal Information about yourself for your I‘m Coming Profile. For example, you may voluntarily provide your Personal Information, such as your photos, display name, content in your "About Me" section, tags you may wish to include in the "My Tags" section, stats (including your age, height, weight, body type, position, ethnicity, relationship status, "My Tribes"), expectations (i.e., "I‘m Looking For", "Meet At", "Accepts NSFW Pics"), identity (including Gender and Pronouns), self-reported health information (including HIV status, Last Tested Date, and vaccination status – see below for more information), social links (including Instagram username, Spotify top songs, Twitter handle, and Facebook username), and any other information that you choose to add to your profile on I‘m Coming Services (collectively "Profile Information"). As the I‘m Coming Services are designed to allow users to connect and share information as a social networking platform, when you use the I‘m Coming Services, your I‘m Coming Profile and Profile Information are public, meaning other users of the I‘m Coming Services can see your I‘m Coming Profile, Profile Information, and other Personal Information (including Personal Information that could be considered "sensitive" in some jurisdictions and contexts, such as your health information – see below for more information) posted by you. For example, other users can search for you, search for your profile characteristics, see if you‘ve viewed their profile, or see you listed as being within their vicinity. Users of the I‘m Coming Services may be able to determine your identity based on what you share in your I‘m Coming Profile as well as in chats. Do not include information in your I‘m Coming Profile that you want to keep private. For example, if you do not want your HIV status or vaccination status to be known, you should not include that information in your I‘m Coming Profile. You should carefully consider what Personal Information to include in your I‘m Coming Profile, and you can review and change that information at any time through the "Edit Profile" section of the app.
  • Note on "sensitive" Personal Information. In some jurisdictions and under some regulations, information that may reveal an individual‘s racial or ethnic origin or details on their health or sex life/sexual orientation, among other data, may be considered "sensitive" or "special category" Personal Information. You determine whether you provide such data within your profile. Such information may also be revealed to the I‘m Coming Community and with users with whom you interact if you choose certain Tags, if you choose to disclose such information in your "About Me" section, or via private messages you send other users. You can review, change, or remove such information at any time by accessing the "Edit Profile" section of the Services. I‘m Coming relies on your consent for the collection and processing of sensitive Personal Information, as indicated by your inclusion of this information in your Profile.  
  • Note on health information, including HIV Status, Last Tested Date, and vaccination status. To better support the community‘s wellbeing, and at the recommendation of HIV prevention and health experts and the community of I‘m Coming users, we give you the option of publishing certain self-reported health characteristics, such as your HIV status, Last Tested Date, and/or vaccination status, in your public I‘m Coming profile. As mentioned above, such data may be considered "sensitive" in some jurisdictions and contexts. I‘m Coming uses Last Tested Date to send you periodic reminders to get tested if you choose to opt in to receiving this reminder. If you choose to include this information in your profile, it will become public to other users of the I‘m Coming Services. As a result, you should carefully consider whether you want to disclose your HIV status, Last Tested Date, and/or vaccination status. Please note that I‘m Coming does not verify this health information. You can review, change, and/or remove your HIV status, Last Tested Date, and/or vaccination status information at any time by accessing the "Edit Profile" section of the Services.
  • Feedback/Support-Related Information.   If you provide us feedback or contact I‘m Coming customer support, we collect your name and email address and possibly other Personal Information (e.g., IP address), as well as any other content that you send to us in order to reply and address any issue. If you contact customer support, we also collect and retain certain technical diagnostic data, such as your phone model.
  • Social Features.   The I‘m Coming Services include features that permit interactions that you initiate between the I‘m Coming Services and third-party websites or services, including third-party social networks (collectively "Social Features"). For example, you may include a link to your Instagram and/or Facebook accounts from within your I‘m Coming Profile. If you use Social Features on the I‘m Coming Services, both I‘m Coming and the third-party services that operate those Social Features may have access to certain Personal Information about you and your use of both the I‘m Coming Services and theirs. The Personal Information collected and stored by third parties remains subject to those third-parties privacy practices, including whether the third-parties continue to share Personal Information with us.
  • Mailing List-Related Information.  If we collect your email address and you opt into our mailing list, we may send you I‘m Coming news, I‘m Coming Properties information and updates, and third-party offers. You always have the option to unsubscribe through a link in the footer of these emails. We may still send you service-oriented emails related to your account.
  • Survey and Interview-Related Information. When you participate in a survey, you choose to provide us with additional Personal Information through the survey, which may include sensitive Personal Information. If the survey is provided by a third-party service provider, the third-party‘s privacy policy, which is available from within the survey experience, applies to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information. Similarly, from time to time, we ask users to help us improve our properties by volunteering for interviews, including via video. We use a third party to support these interviews.
  • Photos, Videos, and Audio. We may collect audio, electronic, visual, or similar information if you enable video or photo features in I‘m Coming Services. If you upload a photo, or video, create an Album, or send an audio message while using the I‘m Coming Services, you will be required to permit I‘m Coming to access your camera, photo gallery, and/or microphone in which case I‘m Coming will have access to the photos and videos stored in your photo gallery. I‘m Coming also offers the ability to send recorded videos or to engage in live audio and video chats. After you start a chat with another I‘m Coming user, you can send recorded videos or participate in a live audio or video call with that user.
  • Location and Distance Information. We may collect your precise location ("Location") to determine your distance from other users ("Distance Information"). The I‘m Coming Services is designed to allow users to share Distance Information. Distance Information is public and indicates to other users of the I‘m Coming Services the distance you are in feet or meters from them. Your Distance Information may be displayed in your profile in those users‘ search results should you elect to display your relative distance. Should you choose not to allow the I‘m Coming Services to access your location, certain features of the I‘m Coming Services (such as displaying nearby user profiles or features that include Location Sharing) will not function properly. Sophisticated users who use the I‘m Coming Services in an unauthorized manner, or other users who change their location while you remain in the same location, may use Distance Information to determine your exact location and may be able to determine your identity. You may choose to hide your Distance Information; however, the I‘m Coming Services will continue to sort and display your profile based on your relative distance from other users. Accordingly, even if you choose to hide your Distance Information, others may nevertheless be able to determine your Location. You may revoke this permission and disable the location services on your device on an iPhone by going to Settings> Privacy> Location Services> I‘m Coming and on an Android device by going to Settings> Location> I‘m Coming> Permissions> Location; and on I‘m Coming Web by going to your browser settings.
  • Location Sharing in Chat. You can share your current Location with another user via a chat message through the I‘m Coming Services. The Location you share is updated once shared. You can revoke your consent to sharing this Location at any time by utilizing the "cancel" button within the Services.
  • Messages.When you send a message to other users using the I‘m Coming Services (which could include content such as photos, location, audio, video, emojis, giphys, reactions, etc.), we may collect Personal Information that includes the content of the message. If you send messages, you will be providing the user who views your message (and I‘m Coming) with your Personal Information. Don‘t send messages or share content that you wouldn‘t want someone to save or share as users may save content or copy it outside the I‘m Coming Services. We store chat messages on our servers in accordance with our retention policy; however, chat messages may also be stored locally on devices. Therefore, if you choose to delete your account, messages you sent to another user may still be available on that user‘s device. Do not share your Account Credentials through messages, or any other Personal Information that you don‘t want other users to know about you.
