Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 1, 2026

This policy explains what MeeTeer ("we") collects and why. MeeTeer is operated by Reza Mesgar, Montréal, Québec, Canada. Questions: support@meeteer.com.

What we collect

• Account: email address, username, password (handled by Firebase Authentication), and sign-in with Apple or Google if you choose them.
• Profile: your photo and the settings you choose.
• Location: your precise location while you use the app, and in the background if you allow it, to show nearby spaces, keep you present in a space you joined, and notify you about nearby places. Your location is sent to our server for these purposes. When you only look around, it is rounded to about 100 m. We do not keep your position after it has been used, except for hangout routes and the places you choose to add to the map.
• Hangout routes: recorded only when the person who creates a hangout turns on live location sharing. Your position is then saved during the hangout, stored encrypted, and shown only to the members of that hangout.
• Content you create: posts, confessions, comments, messages, photos, voice messages, spots, rooms and hangouts.
• Device and service data: a push notification token, sign-in sessions with device type and app version.

How we use it

Only to run the app: showing the map, delivering messages and notifications, keeping your account secure.

Data travels between the app and our server over encrypted connections (HTTPS). The text of messages and notifications is stored encrypted on our server, and so are our database backups. This is not end-to-end encryption: reported messages can be read when we review a report.

MeeTeer does not show ads today. If we add local offers later, they will be selected on your device, and it will be your choice to see them. We will update this policy first.

Who can see what

Other people can see your username and photo, and what you post in spaces and rooms. Private spaces and rooms show their content to members only. Confessions do not show your name to other users.

Services we use

• Google Firebase: sign-in, emails and push notifications.
• Google Maps: the map. Map requests go to Google under its own privacy policy.
• Apple and Google: sign-in, if you choose them.
• Contabo GmbH (Germany): server hosting. Google and Contabo may store data outside Québec and Canada.

We use only providers that commit to protecting your data to the same standard as this policy.

How long we keep it

We keep your data while your account exists. Backups may keep deleted data for a limited time.

Deleting your account

Delete your account in the app under Settings, or see this page. We remove your email, name, photo, password, push tokens, sessions, friends and memberships. Your posts, comments and messages stay, shown as "Deleted user", so conversations remain readable. Contact us to ask for their removal.

Person in charge of privacy

Reza Mesgar is responsible for protecting personal information. Contact: support@meeteer.com.

Your choices and rights

You can turn off location and notifications in your phone's settings. You can ask for access to your data, or to correct or delete it, at support@meeteer.com.

Children

MeeTeer is not for children under 16.

Changes

We will update this page if this policy changes.
