Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 24, 2026 · Version 2026-08-24

Ahleen-اهلين helps hosts and participants coordinate meet ups, online or at a meeting point.

Data We Collect

Ahleen may collect account data such as your name, phone number, email address, account identifier, city, language preference, date of birth, gender, profile photo, background photo, profile tags, authentication status, verification status, and account settings.

Ahleen does not currently ask users to upload or store raw national ID or passport images or numbers. If a regulated identity-verification provider is introduced later, the notice and consent flow will explain the provider, purpose, data fields, retention, and choices before processing begins.

When you use meet ups, Ahleen may store request titles, notes, meeting points, city, date and time, radius, access type, invitees, participants, arrival status, host status, activity history, and related sync data.

Your Choices and Consent

During sign-up, you separately accept the Terms and Conditions, acknowledge this Privacy Policy, and accept the Identity Commitment. Optional marketing is a separate choice. Ahleen does not currently request biometric-verification consent. Location access is requested by iOS in context when a location feature needs it, with visibility rules explained in the app.

How We Use Data

We use data to operate accounts, send sign-in codes, coordinate requests, show eligible public requests in Explore, deliver private invitations, sync host and participant status, manage Premium access, filter prohibited content, process safety reports and blocks, improve reliability, protect against misuse, and support account deletion.

Who Can See What

Public requests can appear in Explore. Private requests are intended only for invited users, while link requests are intended for people who receive the shared link. Hosts and participants in the same request may see the request details and arrival status needed for coordination. Phone numbers and any future legal-identity verification details remain hidden from other users. Blocking hides active requests and profiles between the two accounts. Ahleen does not show follower counts.

No Sale or Advertising Tracking

Ahleen does not sell personal data and does not use advertising tracking.

Photos

Profile photos and profile background photos are stored in a private Supabase Storage bucket under the signed-in user's own folder. They are made available only where a user has permission to view the relevant profile or request.

Location

Ahleen uses one-time location fixes to select meeting points, preview maps, estimate distance, and confirm onsite arrival when you request those actions. If you opt into automatic arrival, iOS region monitoring may wake the app near an active meeting point. Ahleen does not start continuous navigation-grade location collection at sign-in, and active location updates stop after the requested fix or when the app becomes inactive.

Safety Reports and Blocking

Ahleen processes private reports about requests, profiles, and profile photos, and stores account blocks so blocked accounts cannot view each other's profiles or active requests. Reports may be retained while they are reviewed and for legal, safety, or dispute handling.

Service Providers

Ahleen may use Supabase for authentication, database, storage, and realtime sync; Apple for App Store, Sign in, purchase, and device services; RevenueCat for subscription entitlement management; and Apple Maps or Google Maps for navigation links.

Purchases

Premium and host-pass purchase status may be checked through Apple and RevenueCat so the app can activate host features. Ahleen does not receive or store your full App Store payment card details. Refund requests are handled by Apple.

Security and Retention

Ahleen uses access controls and platform security measures intended to protect account data. Data is retained only as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal or payment obligations, protect safety and moderation processes, resolve disputes, and maintain backups.

Account Deletion

You can permanently delete your account from Account settings. Deleting an Ahleen account does not cancel Apple billing, so active subscribers should manage or cancel their subscription in the App Store before deletion. Some records may remain for a limited period when required for legal, security, payment, backup, moderation, or dispute reasons.
