Welcome to Fachat! We respect and value your privacy.
The use of Fachat through our mobile applications may involve collection and use of your information. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is collected, used, and disclosed by Fachat with respect to your access and use of our services through our mobile applications. It is important for you to understand this Privacy Policy and how you may protect your information, so please read it carefully.
By using Fachat, you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms between you and Fachat Team (hereinafter “we”, “our” and “us”). You also agree that we may collect, use, and share your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, as revised from time to time. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, do not use Fachat.
This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and forms part of the Fachat Terms of Service. Any terms used in this Privacy Policy will have the same meaning as the equivalent defined terms in the Fachat Terms of Service unless otherwise defined herein or the context requires otherwise.
Any information that is collected is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time such information is collected. We may modify and revise our Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you of such changes by posting them on our website, through our services, or by sending you an email or other notification, and we will indicate when such changes will become effective. By continuing to access or use our services after the changes become effective, you are agreeing to be bound by the revised policy.
Fachat may link you to social media or other features or services provided by a third party. Please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to the information collected by any third-party websites, services, or applications that can be accessed through our services, and does not apply to the information collected by other companies and organizations who advertise their services on Fachat. We bear no liability for any third-party use of any information provided by you to them.
To provide the services of Fachat, we access, collect, store, and use the following information relating to you:
Account registration information, including your email address, account name, gender, date of birth, age, city or area, social media account information (profile photo, gender, etc.), and any tags you post about yourself;
Profile information visible to other users, which may include your photographs, city or area, and other information you make available;
Usage and interaction data, including usage by geographies, device and connection information, IP address, device capability, bandwidth, statistics on page views, and network type;
Technical information, such as your mobile carrier-related information, configuration information made available by other programs you use to access Fachat, your IP address, your location/country/region/time zone, your device’s version and identification number, user settings, and the operating system; and
Information about the likes and dislikes you have made using Fachat.
To provide certain features (e.g., online video calling), we must access your microphone, camera, or location with your permission:
Microphone: We access the microphone on your device (with your permission) to record audio messages and deliver sound during video calls.
Camera: We access the camera on your device (with your permission) to take your profile pictures and deliver real-time images during video calls.
Location: We display your current location on your profile page (with your permission) to provide a personalized and optimized experience for you and other users.
By using Fachat, you agree that all processing activities of sensitive personal information are for the purposes and in the manner as described in this Privacy Policy. We do not use your sensitive personal information for the purpose of direct marketing unless agreed by you.
To comply with age verification requirements and to help ensure the safety of our community, Fachat uses a facial age estimation feature. This feature allows us to estimate whether you meet the minimum age requirement to use our services.
How It Works
When prompted, you will be asked to take a selfie using your device’s camera.
Your selfie image is securely transmitted to our third-party age estimation service provider, Amazon Web Services, Inc. (“AWS”), for processing.
AWS’s technology analyzes your facial image to estimate your age. It does not identify you personally—it only returns an estimated age or an “over/under” age result.
The selfie image is deleted immediately after the age estimation is complete. No facial images are stored by AWS, shared with Fachat, or shared with any other third party.
What Information Is Collected
Facial image (selfie photo) – captured via your device’s camera and transmitted directly to AWS for age estimation processing.
Estimated age result – Fachat receives only an age estimate or an “over/under” determination from AWS. We do not receive or store your selfie image.
Purpose and Legal Basis
We use facial age estimation solely for the purpose of verifying that you meet the minimum age requirement to use Fachat. This processing is based on your consent, which you provide when you agree to take a selfie for age verification.
Your Biometric Data Rights
Facial images used for age estimation may constitute biometric information under certain applicable laws (e.g., the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, EU GDPR, or other local regulations). By using the facial age estimation feature, you acknowledge and consent to the collection and processing of your facial image for this purpose. You may withdraw your consent at any time by discontinuing use of this feature; however, this may affect your ability to use Fachat.
For more information on how AWS processes data, please review the AWS Privacy Notice at: https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/
On iOS devices, Fachat may request your permission to access your device’s Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework. When you see the ATT prompt, you can choose to allow or deny tracking.
If you allow tracking, we may use your IDFA to:
Measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns;
Deliver personalized advertisements;
Attribute app installations and in-app events to advertising sources; and
Analyze aggregated user behavior for product improvement.
If you deny tracking, we will not access your IDFA and will not track your activity across other companies’ apps and websites for advertising purposes. You may change your preference at any time in your device’s Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
The services of Fachat are not intended for anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from any individual under such age. If we learn that we have collected personal information of an individual under 18, we will take steps to delete such information from our systems as soon as possible.

To provide services to you, including both current and future services rendered via Fachat;
