Last Updated: April 12, 2025

At Ignite Your Spark ("we," "us," or "our"), we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and safeguard your data when you visit or interact with our website, yourdomain.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you consent to the practices described below. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information when you use the Site:

  • Personal Information: Data you voluntarily provide, such as answers to our quiz (e.g., preferences, age range), email address, or other details submitted through forms or signups.
  • Usage Data: Information about your interactions with the Site, including IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and time spent, collected automatically via cookies or similar technologies.
  • Third-Party Data: Information shared when you click affiliate links or engage with third-party services (e.g., dating platforms), as described in Section 4.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide and improve the Site’s features, such as personalizing quiz results or enhancing user experience.
  • Facilitate connections to third-party services, such as dating platforms, through affiliate links or advertisements.
  • Analyze Site usage to optimize performance, content, and marketing campaigns.
  • Communicate with you, such as responding to inquiries or sending promotional offers (with your consent).
  • Comply with legal obligations, such as data protection laws (GDPR, CCPA).

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to enhance your experience and track usage. These may include:

  • Essential Cookies: Necessary for the Site to function, such as remembering your quiz answers.
  • Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how users interact with the Site, e.g., via Google Analytics.
  • Advertising Cookies: Enable personalized ads and track affiliate link performance, e.g., via Taboola Pixel.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, but disabling cookies may limit Site functionality. For details, see our Cookie Policy (available upon request).

4. Sharing Your Information

We may share your information with:

  • Third-Party Partners: Dating platforms or affiliate networks (e.g., our partners) when you click links or sign up for services. These partners have their own privacy policies, which you should review.
  • Service Providers: Companies that support our operations, such as hosting providers, analytics tools, or marketing platforms, bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
  • Legal Authorities: If required by law, regulation, or legal process (e.g., court orders), or to protect our rights and safety.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

5. Affiliate Links and Third-Party Services

The Site includes affiliate links to third-party dating platforms. Clicking these links may share data (e.g., IP address, referral details) with those platforms to facilitate your signup and track our commissions. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. Please review their policies before providing personal information.

6. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on your location (e.g., EU, California), you may have rights under GDPR, CCPA, or other laws, including:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate data.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your data, subject to legal obligations.
  • Opt-Out: Opt out of data sharing or marketing communications.

7. Data Security

We use industry-standard measures (e.g., HTTPS encryption, secure servers) to protect your data. However, no online platform is 100% secure. You use the Site at your own risk, and we are not liable for unauthorized access beyond our control.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined above, typically no longer than 12 months after your last interaction with the Site, unless required by law. Usage data may be retained longer for analytics, anonymized where possible.
