Camera and Photo Access

Our app requests camera access to allow you to:

• Take profile photos directly within the app

We do not access your camera without your explicit permission, and photos are only used for the purposes you intend.

• Help you find activities in your area

You can disable location access at any time through your device settings.

Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Except for the mobile-messaging limits in SMS / Mobile Messaging Privacy, we may share your information:

• With other users as part of the app's functionality (e.g., your profile is visible to others). This does not include your mobile phone number, SMS opt-in data, or messaging consent.
• With service providers who help us operate our platform. Those providers do not receive your mobile phone number, SMS opt-in data, or messaging consent for marketing or promotional purposes.
• If required by law or to protect our rights

We do not share, sell, rent, or provide your mobile phone number, SMS opt-in data, or messaging consent to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

SMS / Mobile Messaging Privacy

If you opt in to receive text messages from Playa, we use your mobile phone number and messaging consent information to provide the messages you requested, such as RSVP confirmations, event reminders, and important event updates. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You may reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance.

We do not share, sell, rent, or provide your mobile phone number, SMS opt-in data, or messaging consent to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

You have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Correct inaccurate data
