Vynce Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 04, 2026
Vynce ("Vynce," "we," "us," or "our") operates a mobile application that helps verified college students discover, RSVP to, and share nightlife and campus events. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
By creating an account or using the Vynce app, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide to us
- Account information: your name, .edu email address, school affiliation, and profile photo.
- Phone number, if you choose to enable SMS notifications.
- Content you post: events, RSVPs, crowd reports, comments, and messages within the app.
- Payment information, if you purchase a Vynce Pass, subscription, or event ticket. Payments are processed by our third-party payment processor (e.g. Apple's In-App Purchase system or Stripe); we do not store full payment card numbers ourselves.
- Customer support communications, if you contact us for help.
Information collected automatically
- Precise location, to show you nearby events on the Live Map and to power crowd-level reporting for venues near you. You can control location access in your device settings.
- Device identifiers (such as a device ID or push notification token), to deliver notifications about events and app updates.
- Usage and product interaction data, such as which events you view, RSVP to, or report crowd data for, used to improve the app and personalize your feed.
- Crash and performance data, used solely to identify and fix technical issues.
2. How We Use Your Information
| Purpose | Examples |
| --- | --- |
| App Functionality | Verifying your .edu email, showing your profile, displaying nearby events, sending notifications |
| Analytics | Understanding which events and features are popular, improving crowd-meter accuracy |
| Product Personalization | Recommending events and organizations based on your school and activity |
| Customer Support | Responding to your questions or issues |
| Safety & Verification | Confirming .edu status to keep Vynce a verified campus community |
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data for third-party advertising, and we do not use any data to track you across other companies' apps or websites.
3. How We Share Information
- Other users: your name, profile photo, school, and RSVP/attendance status may be visible to other verified users, organizations, or event hosts, depending on the event's visibility settings.
- Event hosts & organizations: if you RSVP to an event, the hosting organization or venue may see aggregate attendance and, where applicable, your RSVP.
- Service providers: we share limited data with vendors who help us operate Vynce, such as cloud hosting, push notification delivery, payment processing, and customer relationship tools. These providers are only permitted to use your data to perform services for us.
- Legal reasons: we may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Vynce, our users, or the public.
4. Your Choices
- You can edit or delete your profile information at any time in the app.
- You can disable location or notification permissions in your device settings.
- You can permanently delete your account and associated data from the Profile tab ("Delete My Account"). This action cannot be undone.
- You may contact us at any time to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information.
5. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you the app's features. If you delete your account, we delete or anonymize your personal information within a reasonable period, except where retention is required for legal or safety reasons.
6. Children's Privacy
Vynce is intended for college students and requires a valid .edu email to create an account. Vynce is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
7. Your Regional Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, and the right to opt out of certain data sharing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the information below.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the app or by other reasonable means before the changes take effect.
