Umee Privacy

Last Updated: May 5, 2025

​

Welcome to Umee. We take your privacy seriously.

​

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use the Umee mobile app (the “App”) or visit our website at https://umee.social. Umee is designed to help members of gyms, clubs, and other invite-only communities connect in meaningful, respectful ways.

​

By using Umee, you agree to the terms below. If you ever have questions, contact us at privacy@umee.social.

​

1. What We Collect

a. Information You Provide:

• Account Info: Your name, email, phone number, username, and profile photo when you sign up.

• Community Details: What communities you join (e.g., a fitness center), plus any invite code info.

• Posts & Messages: Anything you share via newsfeeds, messages, or chats.

• Support Requests: If you contact us, we keep a record to help you better.

b. Information We Collect Automatically:

• Device & Usage Info: This includes your device type, IP address, and how you interact with the app.

• Push Notifications: We collect notification tokens so we can send updates—only if you opt in.

• Performance Data: We track crashes and performance issues to improve the app.

c. Information from Others:

• Community Partners: A gym or club might confirm your membership or verify your invite.

• Login Services: If you log in with Apple, Google, or another service, we might get your name or email from them.

 

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Set up your account and confirm your community membership.

• Help you connect with others through posts, friend requests, and chat.

• Send updates about messages, community activity, or new features (if you’ve opted in).

• Keep the app safe and moderated.

• Understand how the app is used and improve it.

• Comply with legal obligations if needed.

 

3. When We Share Your Info

We don’t sell your personal information. We only share it when necessary:

• With other users: Your username, profile picture, and any public posts or messages will be visible to others in your communities.

• With community partners: We may confirm your membership or invite code with a gym or club.

• With service providers: We work with trusted companies to help us run the app (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics, push notifications). They only get the info needed to do their jobs.

• If required by law: We’ll share your data to comply with legal requests, enforce our policies, or protect users.

• If our business changes: If Umee is ever acquired or merges with another company, your data may be transferred.

 

4. Your Privacy Options

You can manage your data directly in the app:

• Update your profile in Account Settings.

• Delete your account anytime from the Account Settings screen.

• Turn off push notifications in your device or app settings.

If you live in California or the EU, you may have additional rights under local privacy laws. You can contact us at privacy@umee.social to learn more.

 

5. How We Keep Your Info Safe

We use industry-standard tools—like encryption and secure servers—to protect your data. While no system is perfect, we take reasonable steps to keep your information secure. Please keep your account password safe.

 

6. How Long We Keep Your Info

We keep your info while your account is active. If you delete your account, most of your data is removed. Some content (like posts in public feeds) may remain visible to others. In some cases, we may keep limited data to meet legal requirements or resolve disputes.

 

7. Who Can Use Umee

Umee is intended for users 17 years and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under this age. If we learn that someone under 17 has used the app or provided personal information, we’ll delete that information immediately.

 

8. International Users

Umee is based in the United States. If you’re using the app from outside the U.S., your data may be transferred to and processed in the U.S. or other countries. We use legal safeguards to protect your data in these cases.

 

9. Links to Other Sites

Some parts of Umee may link to third-party websites (e.g., your gym’s homepage). We’re not responsible for how those sites collect or use your data. Check their privacy policies before sharing anything.

 

10. Policy Updates

We may update this policy from time to time. If the changes are significant, we’ll notify you in the app or by email. By continuing to use Umee, you’re agreeing to the updated policy.
