At BBWHookup.co.uk, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Whether you’re creating a profile, browsing matches, or using our messaging features, your data is handled with care and respect. We understand that discretion and security are crucial on platforms like ours, especially where personal and intimate information is shared. By using our site, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy. We encourage you to read this document fully to understand how your data is managed and to contact us with any questions or concerns.
When you use BBWHookup.co.uk, we may collect personal and usage data to provide our services effectively. This includes information you provide directly such as your email, username, location, photos, gender identity, and preferences. We may also collect technical data like your IP address, browser type, device information, and interaction logs to improve your experience. If you engage with certain features (e.g., messaging, chat, or profile creation), we may store those interactions to maintain quality and safety. Optional profile fields related to sexuality or preferences are treated with enhanced confidentiality. We do not knowingly collect information from individuals under 18, as our platform is strictly for adults. All data collected is necessary for us to deliver a safe, user-friendly, and tailored hookup experience.
We use your personal data to provide and improve our services. This includes creating and managing your user profile, enabling location-based matches, facilitating messages and chat, personalizing your experience, and ensuring a safe community through moderation. Your email address may be used for important service updates or, with your consent, promotional offers and content. We also analyze aggregated, anonymous usage patterns to enhance site functionality and resolve issues. Sensitive information like photos or sexual preferences is never shared without your consent. We do not use your data to make automated decisions that significantly affect you without human involvement. Your privacy is central to our approach, and we strive to balance a seamless experience with strong data protections.
BBWHookup.co.uk uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your user experience. Cookies help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in, show relevant matches, and analyze site traffic. We may also use tools like Google Analytics to understand how users interact with our site, which helps us improve features and performance. Some cookies are essential for site operation, while others are used for optional personalization or marketing. You can manage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings, although doing so may affect how the site functions. By continuing to use BBWHookup.co.uk, you consent to our use of cookies as described. For full transparency, we provide a detailed cookie notice that outlines the types of cookies used and your options for control.
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. However, we may share certain data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the site—such as hosting services, analytics tools, customer support platforms, and payment processors. These partners are contractually bound to use your data only for specific tasks and to maintain its confidentiality and security. If required by law (e.g., court order or investigation), we may disclose limited information to legal authorities. In the event of a merger or acquisition, user data may be transferred under the same privacy protections. We always strive to minimize the data shared and ensure any sharing is secure, lawful, and necessary for our service delivery.
