Privacy Policy
Hibbly Review is an independent dating app reviews resource for U.S. singles evaluating the Hibbly platform — we are not a dating platform ourselves and do not operate matching, messaging or profile services. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect on hibbly-review.com, how we use it, and the choices available to you under U.S. privacy law.
1. Introduction & Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to hibbly-review.com (the “Site”), operated by Hibbly Review as an independent affiliate publisher of dating app reviews. It covers information collected when you browse our review of the Hibbly platform, interact with our on-site match finder quiz, or click a call-to-action button that hands you off to a third-party partner. It does not cover the privacy practices of Hibbly itself or any other platform you reach through our links — those services maintain their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read before creating an account.
By using the Site, you acknowledge the practices described here. If you do not agree, please discontinue use. This policy is written to be consistent with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), comparable comprehensive state privacy laws such as those in Colorado and Virginia, and guidance from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) on truthful, non-deceptive data practices.
2. Information We Collect
We collect a limited set of information necessary to operate the Site and to understand how visitors use our content. This falls into four categories:
- Quiz and interaction inputs. Our on-page “Match Finder” quiz asks for an age range, stated intentions, and a ZIP code. These selections run entirely in your browser to display an illustrative result; we do not transmit or store the ZIP code you enter on our servers.
- Device and browser data. Like most websites, our hosting and analytics tools automatically log technical data such as browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and approximate session timestamps.
- Approximate geolocation. We may infer a general, city-or-region-level location from your IP address or from a ZIP code you voluntarily enter. We do not collect precise GPS location.
- Cookies and similar technologies. Small text files and pixel tags help us remember basic preferences and measure aggregate traffic patterns. See Section 7 for details.
We do not ask visitors to create an account, submit a payment method, or upload photographs on this Site. Any profile creation, photo verification, or payment activity happens on the Hibbly platform itself, governed by its own privacy policy.
3. How We Use Data
We use the information described above to operate, maintain, and improve the Site, including to render the interactive quiz result, understand which review sections readers find useful, detect and prevent abuse or automated scraping of outbound links, and comply with applicable law. We do not use the data we collect to build individual dating profiles, and we do not sell reader data to data brokers for unrelated marketing purposes.
Aggregate and de-identified analytics may be used to evaluate content performance and to inform which affiliate partners we continue to feature in future reviews.
4. Data Sharing & Third-Party Affiliate Disclosures
Hibbly Review participates in affiliate marketing. When you click a “See Matches Now” or similar call-to-action button, you are redirected off this Site to a partner registration or tracking page operated by a separate company. That handoff may pass along non-identifying referral parameters (such as which page or campaign sent you) so our partner can attribute the visit, but we do not share your name, email, or account credentials because we never collect them.
We may also share limited technical data with service providers who host the Site, provide analytics, or protect it from automated abuse, under contractual obligations to use that data only to provide services to us. We do not sell personal information in the traditional sense of exchanging it for money, though under the broad definitions used by some state privacy laws, certain analytics or advertising-related sharing arrangements can be treated as a “sale” or “share.” Section 5 explains how to opt out of any such sharing.
5. Your Rights Under CCPA & State Privacy Laws
If you are a California resident, the CCPA gives you the right to know what personal information we hold about you, request deletion of that information, correct inaccurate information, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. Enforcement of the updated CCPA regulations is overseen by the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA). Residents of Colorado, Virginia, Connecticut, and a growing list of other states with comprehensive privacy laws have substantially similar rights of access, correction, deletion, and opt-out, subject to each state's specific definitions and exemptions.
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information: To exercise an opt-out of any sale or sharing of personal information, you may contact us using the details in Section 12 and identify yourself as making this request. We also recognize the Global Privacy Control (GPC), a browser-based opt-out preference signal; where required by California and Colorado law, we treat a detected GPC signal from your browser as a valid opt-out request for that browsing session.
To submit an access, deletion, or correction request, contact us by email or postal mail as listed in Section 12. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests, consistent with applicable law. We do not discriminate against visitors who exercise their privacy rights.
6. Sensitive Personal Information
Under the CCPA, “sensitive personal information” includes categories such as precise geolocation, government identifiers, financial account details, and certain health or biometric data. We do not intentionally collect any of these categories on this Site. The quiz inputs (age range, intentions, ZIP code) are used only to render an illustrative on-page result and are processed client-side; we do not treat them as sensitive personal information requiring a separate opt-in mechanism, but we handle them with the same care described throughout this policy.
7. Cookie & Tracking Policy Summary
We use a limited set of cookies and similar technologies: strictly necessary cookies that let the Site function (such as remembering that you dismissed the mobile menu), and analytics cookies that measure aggregate visitor behavior. We do not knowingly use cookies to build cross-site advertising profiles of individual readers. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings; doing so may affect how certain interactive elements, like the match finder quiz, behave.
For details on our terms of use, cookie handling, and the affiliate relationship disclosed above, see our Terms & Conditions, which contains a fuller cookie policy summary.
8. Children's Privacy
This Site and the dating app reviews we publish are intended solely for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18, and the Hibbly platform we review likewise restricts access to adults. Consistent with the federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), including amendments finalized by the FTC that tightened requirements around consent and third-party disclosure of children's data, we do not knowingly direct any content, cookie-based tracking, or interest-based advertising toward children under 13. If we learn that a minor has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete it.
9. Data Security & Breach Notification
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, including SSL/TLS encryption on this domain, to protect the limited information we process. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a breach involving sensitive personal information as defined by applicable state breach-notification statutes, we will provide notice to affected individuals and, where required, to state regulators or credit reporting agencies, in accordance with the timelines and thresholds set by the applicable state's law.
10. Data Retention
We retain aggregate analytics data only as long as reasonably necessary to understand traffic trends and improve the Site, and we do not retain quiz inputs beyond your browser session since they are processed client-side. Where we hold any personal information subject to a verified deletion request under Section 5, we will delete or de-identify it within the timeframe required by applicable law, unless a shorter retention period is not feasible for legitimate business or legal reasons such as fraud prevention.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, the affiliate partners we feature, or applicable law. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be posted here; continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. We encourage you to review this page occasionally, and to revisit our full Hibbly review for the latest platform information.
