1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use Out Again, we may collect the following categories of information:
- Account information, such as your email address, display name, username, and profile photo.
- Content you create, including posts, captions, drink selections, comments, reactions, reports, and friend or group activity you choose to create inside the app.
- Photos and media that you choose to capture, upload, crop, or share through the app.
- Location information if you grant location access, including location used to attach context to posts, suggest venues, and find Local posts within about five miles. Local sharing is optional for each photo. Posts shared to Local store an approximate area. Your recent discovery location is kept privately, expires after 24 hours, and is cleared by routine cleanup.
- Notification and device information, such as push notification tokens and app preference settings needed to deliver notifications and keep your account connected across sessions.
- Purchase information, including the product purchased, Apple transaction identifiers, subscription expiration or refund status, and the Out Again account associated with the purchase. Apple handles payment; Out Again does not receive your card number or bank details.
- Usage and diagnostic information needed to operate, secure, and improve the service, such as activity required to process posts, comments, reports, authentication, and social graph changes.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- create and manage your account;
- let you publish posts, comments, reactions, and group activity;
- help you connect with friends;
- show feed content, profile information, and social interactions;
- verify purchases with Apple, restore purchased benefits, and keep subscription and background access up to date;
- deliver notifications, live activities, and in-app alerts, including photo tags and an optional recap of photos shared by your friends or group. We use your time zone and recent app activity to time recap reminders;
- detect abuse, handle reports, enforce safety features, and support blocking or moderation workflows;
- maintain service security, debug issues, and improve the product.
Advertising
When ads are enabled, Out Again displays clearly labeled sponsored posts using Google AdMob. Google may collect network information, including IP addresses and an approximate location inferred from them; app or device identifiers; ad impressions and interactions; and crash, performance, and diagnostic data. This supports ad delivery, measurement, analytics, and fraud prevention.
Out Again requests non-personalized ads, disables Google's publisher first-party identifier and automatic collection of location from device permissions, and does not request permission to access Apple's advertising identifier. We do not supply your Out Again profile, photos, contacts, social graph, or post locations to the ad service. Non-personalized ads still involve the technical data processing described above.
Google's consent messages collect choices where required. You can revisit available choices through “Ad privacy choices” in the app's Settings. Learn more about how Google uses information from apps and Google's Privacy Policy.
4. Your Choices and Controls
- You can update profile details inside the app.
- You can control whether you grant access to photos, location, and notifications through iOS settings and in-app prompts.
- You can block and unblock users through the app’s safety controls.
- You can delete your account from within the app.
- You can restore purchases from the Out Again+ screen in Settings and manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account subscription settings.
Purchases and Out Again+
Out Again+ is an optional auto-renewing subscription. We use Apple-verified purchase records to provide benefits and process renewals, expiration, and refunds. Purchase access is linked to the Out Again account used when buying. A Plus membership badge is visible to other signed-in users; private purchase records are not.
Separately purchased backgrounds remain available without an active subscription unless the purchase is refunded or revoked. Subscription-only background access ends when the subscription expires. Deleting an Out Again account does not automatically cancel an Apple subscription; manage it in your Apple Account settings.
5. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, maintain safety and moderation workflows, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. If you delete your account, we will process deletion according to our service and backend retention requirements.
6. Children’s Privacy
Out Again is not intended for children. Do not use the service if you are not legally permitted to do so under the applicable age rating and laws in your region.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date on this page. Your continued use of Out Again after an update means the revised policy applies to your use of the service.
