Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 22, 2026
We collect the minimum we need to run safe events and make good matches — and we never sell your data. Here's exactly what that means.
What we collect
- Contact: your email when you join the waitlist; your name and phone if you register for an event.
- Photos: a profile photo (you can add up to three) so the people you're put on court with can recognize you. (If we add ID verification as we grow, it'll be handled by a dedicated provider and we won't store your ID document.)
- Profile & preferences: your age, hometown, current location (only if you opt in), tennis level, what you're looking for, interests, work, and — only if you choose to share them — political leaning, religion, and whether you snowbird elsewhere. You set what matters to you, and we only show you people you're compatible with.
- Payment: handled by our payment processor. We never see or store full card numbers.
- Event activity: which nights you attend and the mutual connections you choose to make.
- Safety records: if someone is removed from an event for a Code of Conduct violation, we keep a brief private note of who and why so they aren't invited back. It is never shared.
How we use it
- To run the mixers and match you with compatible people.
- To keep events safe — confirming you are who you registered as, and enforcing the Code of Conduct.
- To email you invites and updates. You can unsubscribe anytime.
Who can see what
Your matching preferences are never shown to other players — they only shape who you're put on court with — and are never displayed publicly. Contact information is shared only when you and another person both opt in after a night. We do not sell your data or share it for advertising, ever.
Who we share it with
Only the service providers who help us operate — payment processing, the waitlist form, and email delivery — and only for those purposes. We don't use an identity-verification provider today; if that changes, we'll update this page before it does.
Keeping it & your rights
We keep your information while you're an active member and delete it on request. To access or delete your data, email privacy@lovemeanssomething.com. This website sets no cookies of its own. It loads its typefaces from Google Fonts, and waitlist signups are saved to a private Google Sheet in our Google Workspace account (with a form service, FormSubmit, as a backup if that is unreachable), so those providers see the request your browser makes. We don't track you across other sites and don't respond to "Do Not Track" signals, because we do no behavioral tracking. If this policy changes we'll update it here with a new date, and email registered members about any material change.
