Privacy policy

Your privacy, taken seriously.

Match Lanka exists to help you meet someone at one of life's most personal moments. We treat the information you share with the care that deserves. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have.

Last updated 5 July 2026

Information we collect

To match you thoughtfully, we collect:

  • Account details from Google sign-in — your name and email address — used to verify and secure your account.
  • Profile information you provide — such as age, gender, location, religion, ethnicity, education, profession, lifestyle, interests, an optional profile photo, and what you're looking for in a partner.
  • Activity within the app — the interests you send, matches you make, and messages you exchange with other members.
  • Basic technical data needed to keep the service running and secure, such as session information.

How we use your information

  • To build your profile and show you to compatible members based on mutual preferences.
  • To power discovery, interests, matches and messaging between members.
  • To keep the community safe — preventing abuse and enforcing our terms.
  • To improve the app and the quality of the matches we suggest.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. Your profile is visible to other members as part of the matching experience, but it is never published on the open web or indexed by search engines. We only share data with service providers who help us operate the app (for example, secure hosting and authentication), and only as needed to provide the service.

Your choices and rights

  • Edit or update your profile at any time from within the app.
  • Unmatch or block other members to control who can see and contact you.
  • Hide your profile from Settings so you no longer appear in anyone's Discover, while keeping your account and existing chats.
  • Blur your profile photo from Settings so other members only see it once you choose to share it — you always see it clearly.
  • Permanently delete your profile — along with your matches and messages — at any time from Settings → Delete profile.

Data security

Sign-in is handled through Google's secure OAuth flow, and your session is protected with an httpOnly cookie — our keys never reach your browser. We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information, though no online service can promise absolute security.

Contact us

If you have questions about this policy or how your data is handled, please get in touch and we'll be glad to help. We may update this policy from time to time; when we do, we'll revise the date above.
