Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you interact with content and services provided through this page (the "Service"), operated by BeMyBuddi.

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not access the Service.

Julia and all other characters on BeMyBuddi are entirely fictional and AI-generated. No character represents, depicts, or is based on any real person, living or deceased. Any resemblance to real individuals is purely coincidental and unintentional.

Characters do not have real feelings, opinions, or consciousness. Interactions do not constitute a real relationship of any kind. Their stories, personalities, and lives are fictional.

We may collect the following types of information:

• Account Information: Email address, display name, and age verification status.
• Messages & Content: Messages you send and receive, as well as any media shared or generated within conversations.
• Usage Data: Pages visited, features used, time spent on the Service, and interaction patterns.
• Device Information: Browser type, operating system, device identifiers, and IP address.
• Payment Information: Transaction records processed through Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers.
• Cookies & Similar Technologies: We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to maintain sessions and improve your experience.

Profiles, names, identities, and interactions are presented as part of a fictional, persona-based entertainment experience.

Messages, media, and other content exchanged through the Service may be stored and processed to provide and improve the Service. You should not share sensitive personal information (e.g. financial details, passwords) through conversations.

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain the Service.
• Personalize your experience and deliver relevant content.
• Process transactions and send related information.
• Communicate with you, including service announcements and support.
• Monitor usage patterns and improve the Service's functionality.
• Detect, prevent, and address technical or security issues.
• Enforce our Terms of Service and protect our legal rights.

We do not sell your personal data. We do not share your conversations with third parties. You can delete everything permanently at any time.

Conversation data is never used to train third-party AI models. We do not share, rent, or sell personal data to advertisers or data brokers.

All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted in transit using TLS. Data at rest is protected with encryption and strict access controls. We employ monitoring and modern security practices to protect against unauthorized access.

We use select third-party services (Supabase for infrastructure, Stripe for payments, analytics tools for aggregate usage). These providers access your data only to perform services on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect it.

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. Conversation data may be retained to maintain continuity of your experience. Upon account deletion, all associated data is permanently deleted within 30 days.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict processing of, or export your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

All purchases, subscriptions, and payments are final and non-refundable. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before the renewal date. Voluntary payments support the platform and selected experience, not specific real-world individuals.

The Service is strictly limited to users aged 18 and older. We require affirmative age confirmation before granting access. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we discover a minor has used our Service, we will immediately delete their account and all data. We comply with COPPA and equivalent child protection regulations.

Interactions are for entertainment and companionship purposes only. The Service does not provide therapy, mental health services, or medical advice. If you are experiencing a crisis, please contact the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988 in the US).

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We disclaim all liability for damages arising from use of the Service, including emotional distress or dependency. Characters may be updated or discontinued at any time without notice.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance.

If you have questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at [email protected].
