fomo circles ("fomo," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By using fomo, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
fomo is intended for users aged 16 and older. During registration, we collect your date of birth to verify that you meet our minimum age requirement. If you do not meet the minimum age, you will not be able to create an account.
If we discover that an account belongs to a user under the age of 16, we will promptly terminate the account and delete all associated personal information. If you believe a user under 16 is using the Service, please contact us at privacy@fomocircles.com.
If you sign in using a third-party service (such as Apple or Google), we may receive your name and email address from that provider, as permitted by your account settings.
We use the information we collect to:
fomo displays advertisements in certain areas of the app (such as the Explore feed) to help support the Service. We partner with three advertising networks:
These advertising partners may collect and use limited data — including your advertising identifier (IDFA), device information, approximate location, and ad interaction data — to serve personalized advertisements. We do not share your name, email, phone number, or content with advertising partners.
When you first launch fomo, iOS will ask for your permission to track your activity across apps and websites owned by other companies. Granting permission enables more relevant, personalized advertising. Declining still allows ads to be shown, but they will be less personalized. You can change this choice at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined under California law.
We are committed to maintaining a safe environment for all users. fomo provides tools to help you control your experience and report concerns:
We review all reports and take appropriate action, which may include removing content, issuing warnings, temporarily suspending accounts, or permanently terminating accounts. We aim to review reports promptly and will notify the reporting user of the outcome when appropriate.
The following content is strictly prohibited on fomo and will be removed upon discovery:
Accounts found to be sharing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or engaging in any form of child exploitation will be immediately terminated and reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and applicable law enforcement authorities.
Your data is stored using Google Firebase infrastructure, which provides enterprise-grade security including encryption in transit and at rest. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
While we strive to protect your information, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your information only for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes described in this policy. Specific retention periods include:
We may retain certain information for longer periods where required by law, for fraud prevention, or to resolve disputes.
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@fomocircles.com. We will respond within 30 days.
You can delete your account at any time from the app settings. When you request account deletion:

Residents of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and other states with comprehensive privacy laws may have similar rights under their respective state laws. To exercise your rights, please contact us at privacy@fomocircles.com.
fomo is operated from the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers maintain facilities. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from the laws of your country.
By using the Service, you consent to the transfer of your information to the United States and other countries as described in this policy. We take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your personal information remains protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
fomo requires all users to be at least 16 years of age. We enforce this requirement through date-of-birth verification during account registration. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 16.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Our age requirement of 16 exceeds COPPA's threshold, providing an additional layer of protection for minors.
If we learn that we have collected personal information from a user under 16, we will promptly terminate the account and delete all associated personal information.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 16 has created an account or provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at privacy@fomocircles.com and we will take steps to remove the account and data.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy within the app and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
