Young & Success (“Y&S,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information when you register for or use the Y&S mobile and web services at youngandsuccess.com.
| Category | Data | How collected |
|---|---|---|
| Account & registration | Email, password (stored encrypted), name, handle, profile photo, bio, interests | Provided by you at sign-up or in profile settings |
| Service usage | Posts, comments, chats, shorts, growth logs, likes, follows, saves, and other content you create | Generated through use of the service |
| Push notifications (FCM) | Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) device token, notification consent status, token refresh timestamps | When you allow notifications in the app |
| Device & access | OS, app version, access logs, diagnostic/error data (when needed) | Collected automatically |
| Optional | Location tags on posts (only if you choose to add them) | Your choice |
We do not intentionally collect government ID numbers, phone numbers, or other sensitive data unnecessary for this service.
Depending on your region, we process personal data based on: (a) performance of our contract with you (providing the service); (b) your consent (e.g., push notifications); (c) legitimate interests (security, abuse prevention); and (d) legal obligations.
When you allow notifications in the Y&S app, a device registration token (FCM Token) issued by Google Firebase Cloud Messaging is stored on our servers (Firestore).
We do not sell FCM tokens or use them for unrelated advertising.
We do not sell your personal information. We use trusted processors to operate the service:
| Processor | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Google LLC (Firebase) | Authentication, database, storage, hosting, push notifications (FCM) |
Your data may be processed in countries where our service providers operate (including the United States). We rely on appropriate safeguards where required by applicable law.
Depending on your jurisdiction (including GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA where applicable), you may request access, correction, deletion, portability, or restriction of your personal data, and you may withdraw consent where processing is consent-based.
Account deletion is available in the app under Settings → Delete Account. Upon deletion, your account, profile, and primary data are removed. Contact: youngandsuccessofficial@gmail.com
When retention is no longer necessary, we delete personal data without undue delay using methods that prevent recovery of electronic records where applicable.
Y&S is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). Users in Korea must be 14 or older. Do not register if you do not meet the minimum age in your region.
We use access controls, HTTPS encryption in transit, Firebase security rules, and hashed password storage, among other technical and organizational measures.
We may update this policy when laws or our services change. Material changes will be announced in the app or on our website.
