When you sign in via Telegram, we receive your Telegram user ID, first name, last name (if set), and username (if set). We do not receive your phone number or Telegram password.
Information you voluntarily add to your profile (age range, county, gender, preferences, bio, social handles) is stored on our servers solely to power your profile page.
We do not store any photos, videos, or media. All images and media shared in the California Hookups community are hosted exclusively by Telegram on their servers. We have no access to, control over, or copies of any media you post. Telegram's own Privacy Policy governs how your media and messages are stored.
The only data stored on our servers is the profile information you explicitly enter on this website (preferences, bio, kink questionnaire answers, etc.).
Your information is used solely to:
• Display your profile to yourself when logged in
• Manage your community access and group membership
• Allow community administrators to moderate the platform
• Improve the community experience
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties.
This platform optionally collects information about sexual preferences and lifestyle choices. This information is stored securely and is never shared outside the platform. Your kink questionnaire data is private by default and only made visible to other members if you explicitly choose to enable that setting.
The limited profile data you enter on this website is stored on a private server. We take reasonable precautions to protect it. Do not share information you would not be comfortable with the community knowing. For media and message storage, refer to Telegram's Privacy Policy.
As a California resident, you have the right to:
• Know what personal data we collect about you
• Request deletion of your personal data
• Opt out of the sale of your personal data (we do not sell data)
• Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights
To request access to or deletion of your data, contact us through the California Hookups Telegram group.
We use a session cookie to keep you logged in. This cookie contains no personal information — it is a random token that expires when you sign out or close your browser. We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics.
Login is handled by Telegram's authentication widget. Once logged in, your session is managed by our own servers. We do not use any advertising networks or data brokers.
This platform is strictly for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we become aware that a minor has created an account, we will delete their information immediately.
You can request full deletion of your profile data at any time by contacting an administrator in the California Hookups Telegram group. Your data will be removed within 30 days.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects when it was last revised.
For privacy-related requests, contact us through the California Hookups Telegram group.
