4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information for cash. We may share information in the following limited cases:

• With service providers who host, secure, analyze, moderate, or operate parts of the service on our behalf.
• With other users according to your visibility settings, trust settings, profile settings, and product actions.
• With verification, safety, payment, infrastructure, or communications vendors needed to run the service.
• When required by law, legal process, court order, or a good-faith need to protect rights, safety, or the platform.
• As part of a merger, financing, acquisition, asset sale, or corporate reorganization, subject to standard confidentiality protections.

5. Privacy Controls and Choices

• You can choose which information you add to your account and may update certain profile details inside the service.
• You can manage permissions such as contacts, notifications, camera, microphone, and location through your device settings.
• You can use blocking, reporting, connection controls, and visibility settings where available.
• You can delete your account inside the app from the Profile page. See Data Deletion Instructions for the step-by-step path.
• If you cannot access the app, you may request account deletion or other privacy help by contacting support@2a.social.

6. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, operate security and moderation functions, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on account status, the type of information involved, and safety or legal requirements.

7. Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for using the service in a way that protects your own safety and privacy.

8. Children

2a.social is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information to us, contact support@2a.social so we can review and take appropriate action.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we may post an updated version on the site, update the effective date, and provide additional notice when appropriate.
