We do not read your private messages unless:

  • Required for legal reasons
  • Needed to investigate a safety issue

Your safety is extremely important to us.

Deleted accounts are removed from public visibility immediately, and remaining data is purged within a reasonable timeframe except where required for fraud prevention or legal compliance.

7. Children's Privacy

Linyor is strictly for users 18 and older.

We do not knowingly collect or store data from anyone under 18.

If we discover such an account, it will be deleted immediately.

8. Data Security

We use industry-standard security practices to protect your information, including:

  • Encryption in transit and at rest

  • Server-side protections and monitoring

However, no system is perfectly secure. You use the Service at your own risk, and we encourage safe online behavior.

9. International Users

If you access Linyor from outside the United States, your data may be processed in the U.S. or other countries. By using the Service, you consent to this processing.
