PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: 5 October 2026

At FazPar, we take privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we use it, how it is processed and what rights you have.

FazPar is responsible for processing the personal data collected through the website and the application process.

If you have any questions about privacy or your personal data, you can contact us at:

geral@fazpar.com

WHAT DATA WE COLLECT

When you apply to FazPar, we may collect information needed to understand your profile and identify potential matches.

This information may include:

• first and last name;
• date of birth;
• gender or identity;
• country, city/locality and, where applicable, postcode;
• occupation, employment status and educational background;
• languages spoken;
• information about children and whether you would like to have children;
• habits and lifestyle, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, physical exercise, travel and routine;
• preferences regarding the person you are looking for;
• values, interests and relationship priorities;
• answers you choose to provide to open-ended questions;
• email address;
• mobile phone number;
• photographs provided during the application process.

We do not request information about salary, income or assets.

SPECIAL CATEGORY DATA

Some information provided voluntarily may reveal special category personal data, such as religious or spiritual beliefs and, depending on the answers provided about relationships and preferences, information relating to sexual orientation.

This type of information is processed only where necessary for the compatibility process and where the candidate has provided explicit consent.

You may choose not to provide optional information about religion or spirituality.

HOW WE USE YOUR DATA

Your data may be used to:

• review your application;
• understand your profile, preferences and personal goals;
• look for potential matches with other candidates;
• calculate internal compatibility indicators;
• enable human review of potential matches;
• contact you in connection with the FazPar process;
• where authorised, present a limited summary of your profile to a potential match;
• show photographs only to previously selected potential matches and where appropriate authorisation has been provided;
• manage the mutual-interest process and any subsequent introduction;
• comply with applicable legal and security obligations.

Applying to FazPar is free.

Submitting an application does not guarantee that a match will be found.

HOW MATCHING WORKS

FazPar uses structured information from applications to help identify potential compatibility.

Some criteria may be compared automatically and may generate an internal compatibility score.

This system is used only to help organise and prioritise potential matches.

No introduction is decided solely by automated means.

Before a potential match is presented, there is always a human review of the profiles and the compatibility identified.

Open-ended answers, photographs and other information requiring interpretation are not used to make an automatic final decision about an introduction.

SHARING INFORMATION WITH POTENTIAL MATCHES

FazPar profiles are not public.

When we identify a potential match, we may present each person with a limited summary of the other person’s profile.

At the initial stage, this summary does not include:

• surname;
• home address or exact location;
• email address;
• mobile phone number.

Photographs may only be shown as part of the FazPar process and in accordance with the permissions provided by the candidate.

Personal contact details are only shared when there is mutual interest, both people decide to move forward and the applicable conditions for the introduction have been met.

TOOLS USED TO PROCESS DATA

FazPar uses technology services necessary for the operation of the service.

Tally

The application form is provided through Tally.

Tally acts as the form service provider and stores application data on behalf of FazPar. According to the information provided by Tally, form data is stored in Europe and protected by encryption both in transit and at rest.

Google Sheets and Google Apps Script

Certain structured application data is used in a private Google Sheets database to organise candidates and calculate compatibility indicators.

Photographs are not part of the automated scoring process.

Google Apps Script is used to automate internal operations relating to the organisation and calculation of potential matches.

Hosting and email

Hostinger is used for services associated with the website and FazPar’s email address.

Communications relating to applications may be sent through geral@fazpar.com.

These tools are used only for purposes necessary for the operation and management of FazPar.

LAWFUL BASES FOR PROCESSING

Depending on the purpose, the processing of personal data may be based on:

• the candidate’s consent;
• explicit consent for special category data, where applicable;
• the steps necessary to provide the requested service;
• compliance with legal obligations;
• FazPar’s legitimate interests relating to the security, organisation and operation of the service, provided that these interests are not overridden by the rights of the data subject.

Where processing is based on consent, consent may be withdrawn at any time.

DATA RETENTION

Application data is retained for as long as the profile remains active and for as long as it is necessary to identify potential matches and manage the service.

You may, at any time, ask for your application to be deactivated or request the deletion of your personal data.

Some information may be retained for longer where this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, resolve an issue relating to the service, or protect the legitimate rights of FazPar or the data subject.

When personal data is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected, it will be deleted or anonymised, unless a legal retention obligation applies.

SECURITY

FazPar seeks to limit access to personal data to the people and tools necessary for the operation of the service.

Applications are not published on the website.

The candidate database and the internal matching system are not publicly accessible.

Photographs are not used as part of the automated compatibility calculation.

Despite the measures adopted, no technological system can guarantee absolute security.

YOUR RIGHTS

Under applicable data protection law, you may request:

• access to your personal data;
• rectification of inaccurate or outdated personal data;
• erasure of your personal data, where applicable;
• restriction of processing;
• objection to processing, where applicable;
• data portability, where applicable;
• withdrawal of consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at:

geral@fazpar.com

You may also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority.
