FLAUNT Privacy Policy
This policy explains what FLAUNT collects, why, who it goes to, how long we keep it, and what you can do about it. The data controller is Flaunt Technologies L.L.C-FZ, a limited liability company registered in the Meydan Free Zone, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, licence number 2654245.01, with its registered office at Meydan Grandstand, 6th floor, Meydan Road, Nad Al Sheba, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Contact: biz@flaunt.ae.
The short version: filming and exporting clips needs no account and sends us nothing. Joining the community collects the minimum needed to run it. We never sell your data and never use it for advertising.
1. What we collect, and why
Without an account. Filming, soundtracking and exporting a clip happens on your phone. The only data that leaves it is anonymous usage events (section 1.4) and, if you use Form Check, a few still frames (section 1.3).
1.1 Account data (only if you join the community)
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Year of birth | To confirm you are 16 or over. We store the year only, never the full date |
| Username and bio | To identify you in the community |
| Recovery email (optional) | To restore your account on a new phone. Never shown to anyone, never used for marketing |
| Anonymous account identifier | To link your posts, comments, follows, likes, saves and settings to your account |
1.2 Content and community data
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Posts: clips, captions, lift type, weight, tags | To show them in the community |
| Comments, likes, follows, saves, pinned post | To run the community |
| Hidden words | To hide comments you do not want to see; applied on your device and our server |
| Activity (who liked, commented or followed you) | To show you in the Activity tab |
| Blocks, mutes, reports you make | To enforce your choices and the Community Guidelines |
| Per-post "feature" consent and, if you give it, a social handle for credit | To feature your clip on FLAUNT's own channels only where you agreed |
1.3 Form Check
When you run Form Check, your phone extracts a few still frames (never the video) from the clip and sends them, with the lift type, to our server and on to Anthropic (section 3). We keep the result and a cryptographic fingerprint of the clip so you are not charged a check for re-running the same clip. We do not keep the frames.
1.4 Technical and usage data
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Anonymous device identifier | Generated by the app, not derived from your phone's hardware or Apple identifiers; resets if you delete the app. Lets us count usage and set Form Check limits before you have an account |
| Usage events (which screens and features you use, timings, counts) | To understand what works and fix what does not. Events never contain free text, search queries or usernames |
| Moderation data (automated screening results, reports, actions, audit records) | To keep the community safe and to explain our decisions |
We do not collect your precise location, contacts, photos library, health data, or anything from other apps. The app asks for camera and microphone permission only to film, and for add-only Photos permission only to save your clips; it cannot read your photo library.
2. How we use it
- To provide the app and community features you use.
- To moderate content and enforce the Terms and Community Guidelines.
- To restore your account if you added a recovery email.
- To improve FLAUNT using anonymous usage data.
- To feature your clip on FLAUNT's own channels, only with your per-post consent.
- To comply with the law, including preserving and reporting content where required.
We do not use your data for advertising, do not sell it, and do not share it for others' marketing.
3. Who we share it with
We use these processors to run FLAUNT. Each receives only what its job needs and is bound by contract to use it for that job alone.
| Processor | What it receives | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Account, content, community, moderation and usage data | Database, authentication and server functions |
| Cloudflare | Clips, poster images, moderation frames | Media storage and delivery |
| Google Cloud (Vision) | Four still frames from each upload | Automated screening for prohibited content |
| Anthropic | Form Check frames and lift type | Generating Form Check observations |
| Loudly | Track requests | Supplying the soundtrack catalogue |
| Zoho | Reports, appeals, support emails, recovery codes | Email delivery and support inbox |
We disclose data to authorities where the law requires it, including the preservation and reporting of content involving the exploitation of minors.
4. Where your data is stored
Our servers are in Seoul, South Korea (production) and Ohio, United States (development). Our processors operate in the United States, the European Union and other countries. Where data about people in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland is transferred outside those areas, we rely on standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards with each processor.
5. How long we keep it
| Data | Retention |
|---|---|
| Account and content data | Until you delete the post or the account |
| Content removed by moderation | 30 days for appeals, then purged |
| Moderation events, actions and audit records | 12 months |
| Reports against an account that has been deleted | 30 days |
| Activity entries | 90 days |
| Form Check results and clip fingerprints | Until you delete the clip's post or your account |
| Anonymous usage events | 24 months |
| Content preserved under a legal obligation | As long as the law requires |
Account deletion completes within 24 hours of your request.
6. Your rights and choices
- Delete your account at any time in Settings. This removes your profile, posts, comments, likes, follows, saves and Form Check results.
- Delete any post or comment at any time.
- Withdraw feature consent by deleting the post; we remove the clip from FLAUNT's own channels within 7 days.
- Export your data: email biz@flaunt.ae and we will send your posts, comments and Form Check results as a JSON file within 30 days.
- Hide like counts, mute, block, and hidden words are all in Settings.
If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you also have the rights to access, rectify, restrict and object to our processing, to data portability, and to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority. Our legal bases are: performance of our contract with you (providing the app and community); our legitimate interests in keeping the community safe and improving FLAUNT; your consent, where we ask for it (featuring your clip; Form Check); and legal obligation.
If you live in California, you have the right to know what we collect, to delete it, and not to be discriminated against for exercising those rights. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined in California law.
To exercise any right, email biz@flaunt.ae. We respond within 30 days.
7. Children
FLAUNT's community is for people aged 16 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16. If you believe a child under 16 has an account, email biz@flaunt.ae and we will close it.
8. Security
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access to personal data inside FLAUNT is limited to staff who need it to run the service and is protected by two-factor authentication. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects you, we will tell you and the relevant authorities as the law requires.
9. Changes
We will post any change here with a new effective date. If the change is material, we will tell you in the app before it takes effect.
