This policy explains how the app Wanday (the “Service”) handles your information.

1. Information we collect

Account information: your email address. If you sign in with a Google or Apple account, your name, email address and profile picture.
Profile: display name, user ID, bio and avatar image. An age range and gender you may have set in the past are not shown to other users.
Date of birth: registered when you use the meetup features (finding people to attend an event with, and plans). It is used only to confirm your age and is never shown to other users.
Content you create: posts, comments, images, favorites, saved items, records, follows, blocks, reports and inquiries. Meetup details and join requests, attendance records, and group chat messages.
Plan location: the position you choose on the map when creating a plan, and the area name. It is shown to other users as an approximate location.
Language setting: the app’s display language (Japanese or English), stored so that notifications are delivered in the same language.
Push notification tokens: stored to send notifications to the devices where you have allowed them.
Location: obtained when you search for things near you. It is sent as a search condition each time and is not stored.
Access logs: IP address, device and app type, and access times.

2. How we use it

To provide the Service and keep you logged in
To provide per-user features such as favorites, saved items, records and follows
To provide the meetup features (confirming your age, publishing meetups and plans, showing the meeting point to participants, group chats, and notifications to participants)
To publish posts and comments, respond to reports and remove inappropriate content. To handle a report, the Operator may review the group chat concerned
To deliver push notifications and announcements
To respond to inquiries
To prevent misuse, investigate problems (including analysis of crash information) and improve the Service

3. Device features

Location, photos, the camera, the calendar and notifications are used only with your permission. They are used to find nearby events and ideas and show them on the map, to choose images, to add events and meetups to your device’s calendar, and to deliver announcements. Everything else works without these permissions, and you can withdraw them at any time in your device settings.

4. Sharing and transmission

We outsource tasks such as data storage and delivery and the sending of push notifications to external providers, including providers outside Japan. Contact us for information about how they handle data.

Maps and event images are loaded directly from their providers. When you search for a place on the map or set the location of a plan, the place name or address you enter and the map position are sent directly from your device to the address search provider. Your IP address and similar data are sent to these providers. Please see their privacy policies for how they handle it.

Crash information is sent directly from your device to an external provider’s system for troubleshooting.

Other than the above, we do not provide or sell your personal information to third parties, except as required by law.

5. Retention and deletion

We keep the information while your account exists, or for as long as needed for the purposes above.

Group chat messages are kept after a meetup ends or is canceled, so that participants can look back at them.

When you withdraw, data linked to your account is deleted within a reasonable period and generally cannot be restored. Plans and group chat messages may remain with your personal information removed. Information needed to comply with the law, prevent misuse, maintain security, or deal with rights infringements or disputes may be kept only for as long as necessary.

Data in backups is deleted progressively through the normal backup update and deletion process.

6. Security

Access to the information is limited to the Operator, and communications are encrypted. Passwords are managed by the authentication platform and are not known to the Operator. Group chat contents are not viewed by the Operator except when handling a report.

7. Your requests

You can request disclosure, correction, addition or deletion of your personal information, or suspension of its use. You can edit your profile and withdraw from the app’s settings. For other requests, please contact us. We will verify your identity and respond in accordance with the law.

8. Language

The Japanese version of this policy is the authoritative text. The English version and any other translations are provided for reference, and the Japanese version prevails in case of any discrepancy.

9. Contact and changes

Contact details for this policy are on the Operator information page. We may revise this policy as needed and publish it on this page. Important changes will be announced in the Service.
