Scope of This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to Personal Information collected by MEETO through the MEETO mobile application ("App") and the services made available through it ("Service"). It does not apply to the practices of third parties that MEETO does not own or control, including third-party services you may access through the App or individuals that MEETO does not employ or manage.
Our Service integrates with third-party platforms and service providers — including Google Firebase, CAS.ai, and Google Play Billing — each of which operates under its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review those policies independently. By using our Service, you acknowledge your awareness of these third-party practices.
Age Restriction
During the account creation process, all users are required to provide their date of birth. We do not knowingly collect or solicit Personal Information from anyone under the age of 18. If we become aware that a user under the age of 18 has accessed our Service, we will immediately terminate that account and delete all associated data.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has created an account on MEETO, please contact us immediately at johnapps.official007@gmail.com.
Play Age Signals API — Age Verification
MEETO integrates with the Google Play Age Signals API, a Google Play platform feature that provides an age-verification signal to help us enforce our 18+ eligibility requirement during account creation.
How We Use the Age Signal
- The age signal is checked once during the onboarding process
- If the signal indicates the user is under 18, access to the Service is denied immediately
- The signal is used solely to confirm age eligibility — it is not used for advertising, profiling, or any other purpose
- The signal value is not stored, logged, or retained on any server after the verification step completes
This integration operates in compliance with Google Play Developer Policies and enhances our existing date-of-birth verification to provide a more robust age gate at the point of onboarding.
For more information on the Google Play Age Signals API, please review Google Play's Age Signals documentation.
Account System — Guest-Based Authentication
MEETO operates on a guest-based account system. No email address, phone number, or password is required to create or access an account. When you complete onboarding, an account is automatically created and linked to your device through Firebase Authentication. Each time you reopen the App, you are recognized automatically — no manual login is required.
• If you close and reopen the App, your account is automatically restored.
• If you uninstall and reinstall the App without first deleting your account, your previous account is automatically deleted and a new guest account is created upon reinstall. Your previous profile, messages, and images will not be recoverable.
• If you delete your account through Settings before uninstalling, your data is permanently removed as described in Section 12.
• Your Account ID is displayed in Settings → Account ID. You will need this ID if you contact us to request data deletion or exercise any privacy right by email.
We recommend that users who wish to remove their data use the in-app Delete Account option in Settings rather than simply uninstalling the App.
Information We Collect
There are two primary ways we collect information:
- Information you provide directly to us during onboarding and use of the Service
- Information we collect automatically when you use the App
5.1 Information You Provide to Us
Account and Profile Information
When you complete onboarding, you provide the following:
| Data | Detail | Editable After Signup? |

| Date of birth | Used for age verification and account association | ✓ Yes |
| Profile photo | Optionally uploaded by you | ✓ Yes |
Your display name, gender, and profile photo may be visible to other users of the Service during normal use, including in the Explore People section and during video calls.
User-Generated Content
MEETO enables users to communicate through text chat and image sharing. Content you create includes:
- Text messages sent to other users through in-app chat
- Images sent to other users through in-app chat
Reports and Safety Actions
If you report or block another user, we collect information about that action — including the identity of the reported user and the reason — to investigate potential violations and enforce our Community Guidelines.

Advertising Data
In connection with in-app advertising served through our CAS.ai integration:

| Microphone | Audio during real-time video calls | Never Stored |
| Notifications | Push notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) | Not Stored |
Real-Time Video Calls — Privacy Notice
The core feature of MEETO — random 1-on-1 video calling — is powered by WebRTC technology via Firebase. All video and audio during a call is streamed in real time directly between users. MEETO does not record, capture, log, or store any call content at any point during or after a session.
We strongly advise users never to share sensitive personal information during video calls. While we prohibit unauthorized recording under our Terms of Use and Community Guidelines, we cannot prevent other users from capturing your video using external means. Please exercise caution accordingly.
Information We Do Not Collect
In the interest of full transparency, the following categories of information are not collected by MEETO at any stage:
| Data | Reason |
|---|---|
| Video or audio call content | All calls are real-time via WebRTC — content is never recorded or stored |
| Precise GPS location | Not requested or used at any point |
| Biometric data | No facial recognition, fingerprints, voice prints, or biometric identifiers collected |
| Device contacts or phone book | Not accessed |
| Email address or phone number | Not required — MEETO uses a guest-based account system |
| Financial or payment data | Handled entirely by Google Play — never transmitted to or stored on our servers |
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to operate, maintain, improve, and protect our Service:
- Create and manage your account — establish and maintain your guest-based profile through Firebase Authentication
- Provide the core Service — enable random video calling, text chat, image sharing, and the Explore People feature
- Verify your age — enforce our 18+ requirement at the point of account creation using date-of-birth verification and the Play Age Signals API
- Personalize your experience — apply your gender filter preferences and surface relevant user profiles
- Enable communication — transmit messages and media between users
- Maintain platform safety — process user reports, enforce our Community Guidelines, manage blocks, and detect abuse
- Improve performance — analyze usage patterns, crash reports, and diagnostics through Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics
- Deliver notifications — send service-related alerts via Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)
- Serve advertisements — display ads through CAS.ai and its connected partner ad networks
- Verify subscription status — confirm active subscription through Google Play Billing
- Comply with legal obligations — respond to lawful governmental requests and enforce our Terms of Use
Advertising — CAS SDK
MEETO uses CAS.ai (cas.ai), a third-party advertising mediation platform, to serve advertisements within the App. CAS.ai connects our App to a network of demand-side advertising partners, which may include:
- Google AdMob
- ironSource
- Unity Ads
- AppLovin
- Mintegral
- InMobi
- Chartboost
- 150+ additional demand-side platforms (DSPs)
These advertising partners may independently collect and use your Google Advertising ID (GAID) and ad interaction data — including impressions, clicks, and behavioral signals — to deliver interest-based advertisements and for purposes governed by their own privacy policies. MEETO does not sell your Personal Information to these partners.
CAS.ai Privacy Policy: https://cas.ai/privacy-policy/
Data Storage and Infrastructure
Your data is stored and processed using Google Firebase, operated by Google LLC on global cloud infrastructure. By using our Service, you acknowledge that your data may be stored on servers located outside your country of residence.
Firebase data practices: firebase.google.com/support/privacy
Account Deletion and Data Retention
Deleting Your Account
You may permanently delete your MEETO account at any time through the following steps:
Account deletion on MEETO is permanent and irreversible. Because MEETO operates on a guest-based system with no email or password, there is no mechanism to recover a deleted account. Once deletion is confirmed, you cannot retrieve your profile, chat history, or shared images.
You may also request deletion by emailing us at johnapps.official007@gmail.com or by visiting our Account Deletion page. To process your request, please include your Account ID, which is displayed in Settings → Account ID inside the App. Requests submitted without an Account ID may not be actionable, as we have no other mechanism to uniquely identify your account.
What Happens to Your Data Upon Deletion
| Data | What Happens |
|---|---|
| Profile data (name, photo, date of birth, gender) | Permanently deleted immediately |
| Chat messages (text) | Permanently purged from our servers within 20 days |
| Images sent in chat | Permanently purged from our servers within 20 days |
| Video and audio call content | Not applicable — never stored |
| Report history and block logs | Retained For safety, abuse prevention & legal compliance |
General Data Retention Periods
User Safety — Report and Block
MEETO provides in-app tools to help you protect yourself and others on the platform:
- Report — You may report any user at any time for behavior that violates our Community Guidelines. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team and may result in warnings, temporary suspension, or permanent bans.
- Block — You may block any user to prevent them from contacting you or appearing in your matches. Your blocklist is accessible and manageable at any time through Settings → Blocklist.
Children's Privacy — COPPA 2026 Compliance
Age Enforcement
Our onboarding process requires all users to provide their date of birth. Users identified as under 18 are automatically denied access. We also use the Play Age Signals API (Section 03) as a supplementary verification layer at account creation.
COPPA 2026 — Data We Do Not Collect
In compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), as updated and expanded effective April 22, 2026, we confirm the following:
| Data Category | Collected? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Biometric data | Never | No facial recognition, fingerprints, voice prints, or biometric identifiers of any kind are collected or processed |
| Precise geolocation | Never | Location is derived from IP address at country level only — no GPS coordinates are requested or stored |
| Email address or phone number | Never | Guest-based system requires no contact information |
| Video or audio content | Never Stored | All calls are real-time WebRTC — content is never recorded or retained |
Google Advertising ID (GAID) — CAS.ai Disclosure
MEETO uses CAS.ai to serve in-app advertisements. CAS.ai and its partner networks access the Google Advertising ID (GAID) for the purpose of delivering contextual and interest-based advertisements to users. The GAID is used solely for ad delivery and is governed by CAS.ai's privacy policy and applicable platform policies.
Because MEETO's 18+ hard block prevents any minors from accessing the Service, GAID collection through CAS.ai is never associated with a user under 18. You may reset or limit your GAID at any time via Settings → Google → Ads on your Android device.
Data Minimization Commitment
We are committed to data minimization. We collect only the Personal Information that is strictly necessary to provide and operate the Service. We do not collect, retain, or share Personal Information beyond what is described in this Privacy Policy. Data that is no longer needed for its stated purpose is deleted in accordance with the retention practices described in Section 12.
If a Minor Bypasses Our Controls
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has circumvented our age verification and accessed our Service, please contact us immediately at johnapps.official007@gmail.com. We will promptly terminate the account and delete all associated data upon verification. For more information, please review our Child Safety Policy.

Utah Minor Protection Act — S.B. 194
MEETO complies with the Utah Minor Protection in Social Media Act (S.B. 194), which took effect on May 7, 2026. Because MEETO enforces a strict 18+ hard block at onboarding — verified through mandatory date-of-birth entry and the Play Age Signals API (Section 03) — no user under 18 years of age is permitted to create an account or access the Service.
Our Compliance Measures
- 18+ Hard Block — All users must confirm they are 18 or older during onboarding. Users identified as under 18 are denied access immediately and no account is created
- Play Age Signals API — We use Google Play's age verification signal as a supplementary check at account creation, in addition to user-provided date-of-birth
- Account Termination — Any account determined to belong to a minor is immediately terminated and all associated data deleted without delay
- No Data Collection from Minors — We do not knowingly collect, store, or process any Personal Information from anyone under 18 years of age
If you are a parent or guardian who believes your minor child has accessed MEETO, please contact us immediately at johnapps.official007@gmail.com. We will terminate the account and delete associated data promptly upon verification.
Louisiana Age Verification — H.B. 142
Louisiana H.B. 142, effective July 1, 2026, requires operators of certain online platforms to implement age verification measures for users located in Louisiana. MEETO complies with this requirement as follows:
Our Age Verification Approach
- Mandatory Date-of-Birth Verification — All users must enter their date of birth during onboarding. Any user who does not meet the 18+ threshold is blocked from creating an account and cannot access the Service
- Play Age Signals API — We supplement onboarding verification with Google Play's Play Age Signals API, which provides an additional age verification layer based on the user's Google account data
- Continuous Enforcement — Our 18+ policy is enforced at the point of account creation. Accounts found to belong to users under 18 are terminated immediately
We do not collect or retain any government-issued identification or other sensitive verification documents as part of our age verification process. Verification relies on user-provided date-of-birth information and the Play Age Signals API signal.
If you have questions about our Louisiana compliance or need to report an age verification concern, please contact us at johnapps.official007@gmail.com.
Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your Personal Information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include Firebase's built-in security rules and encryption in transit, mandatory age verification at onboarding, and in-app reporting and enforcement tools.
However, no method of data transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You use the Service at your own risk, and we encourage you to take appropriate steps to protect your device and account.
