9. Changes to This Policy

LoveLink is committed to transparency regarding how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. As our platform evolves, regulatory requirements change, and user feedback shapes our services, we may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect those changes.

9.1 How We Notify You of Changes

We believe in keeping you informed. When we make modifications to this policy, we will notify you through one or more of the following methods:

• In-App Notification: A prominent banner or popup will appear within the LoveLink application upon your next login.
• Email Notification: For material changes, we will send an email to the address associated with your account at least 30 days prior to the effective date.
• Website Posting: The updated policy will be published on our website with the revised "Effective Date" clearly displayed at the top of the document.

9.2 Material vs. Minor Amendments

We categorize policy updates to ensure you understand the significance of changes:

• Material Changes: Updates that significantly alter how we collect, share, or use your personal data, or that impact your privacy rights. We will provide advance notice and, where required by law, seek explicit consent before these changes take effect.
• Minor/Technical Changes: Updates for clarity, formatting, legal compliance, or non-substantive clarifications. These will take effect immediately upon posting but will not materially impact your privacy rights.

9.3 Your Options When We Update This Policy

If you do not agree with the revised terms, you retain the right to discontinue using LoveLink services. Please note:

• You may delete your account at any time by visiting Settings → Account → Delete Profile.
• Data retention and deletion requests will be processed in accordance with Section 12 of this policy and applicable data protection laws.
• Continuing to access or use the platform after the effective date of any material change constitutes binding acceptance of the updated policy.

9.4 Historical Versions & Archiving

LoveLink maintains an archive of previous policy versions for transparency and compliance purposes. You can request access to historical versions by contacting our Data Protection Officer. Note that only the currently published version governs your use of the platform.

9.5 Regulatory & Jurisdictional Updates

LoveLink operates globally and must comply with varying data protection regulations (including but not limited to GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and emerging AI/dating platform legislation). Changes made to satisfy legal or regulatory requirements will be clearly labeled as such and will take effect as mandated by applicable law.
