Terms & conditions
The agreement between us.
These terms govern your use of Match Lanka. By creating a profile or using the app, you agree to them. Please read them carefully.
Last updated 13 September 2026
Who can use the service
You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into a marriage under the laws that apply to you. Match Lanka is intended for individuals genuinely seeking a life partner, and for family members assisting them with consent.
Your account
- You're responsible for the accuracy of the information in your profile and for keeping it truthful.
- You may not impersonate anyone, create profiles for people without their consent, or maintain more than one account.
- You're responsible for activity that happens through your account.
Identity verification
Every member verifies their identity with their National Identity Card. Signing up and verifying are the same step — there is no way to hold a profile here without a card behind it. By submitting it you confirm that the card is your own and that the details on it are true.
- Until we have checked your card, your profile is browsable by others and can receive interests, but you cannot browse or answer them yourself. Your review state is not shown to other members.
- One NIC may hold one account at a time. Using someone else's card, or a card already in use by another member, is grounds for removal. If your profile is removed or you delete it, the card is free to register again.
- We store your NIC number. We ask for photos of both sides of your card, and we do not store them — it is reviewed once and then gone.
Community conduct
To keep Match Lanka respectful and safe, you agree not to:
- Harass, threaten, deceive or abuse other members.
- Post content that is unlawful, hateful, obscene or discriminatory.
- Solicit money, promote a business, or use the service for anything other than finding a partner.
- Attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer or gain unauthorised access to the service.
We may suspend or remove accounts that breach these rules, at our discretion, to protect the community.
Interests and contact details
Match Lanka is an introduction service. There is no messaging in the app: you send an interest, and if it is accepted you exchange contact details and continue the conversation yourselves. Because of that, how contact details are shared is part of this agreement:
- If you are a male member, you agree that your mobile number is shared with a female member when she accepts your interest. Do not send an interest if you are not willing for that to happen.
- A female member's mobile number is never shared automatically. She may choose to share it with an individual member, and that choice is hers alone.
- Contact details, once seen, cannot be recalled. Consider carefully before sharing yours, and use block and report if a member misuses them.
- Conversations that continue outside the app are not ours, and we cannot see or moderate them. Reports about them are still welcome and still acted on.
We don't guarantee that you'll receive interest, that any interest will be accepted, or that a connection will lead to a relationship. You interact with other members at your own discretion and are responsible for your own safety when meeting anyone in person.
Content you provide
You retain ownership of the content you add to your profile. By posting it, you grant us the permission needed to display it to other members and operate the service. You must have the right to share anything you upload.
Disclaimers and liability
The service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Match Lanka is not liable for the conduct of any member or for any loss arising from your use of the service.
Changes and termination
We may update these terms as the service evolves; continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms. You may stop using the service at any time — hide your profile from Settings to step out of discovery, or delete it outright from Settings → Delete profile to remove your profile and every connection for good. We may also suspend or end access where necessary to protect members or comply with the law.
