Our Privacy Commitment
At True Love Compass, your privacy is a top priority. Your privacy is at the core of the way we design and build the services and products you know and love, so that you can fully trust them and focus on building meaningful connections.
We appreciate that you put your trust in us when you provide us with your information, and we do not take this lightly.
We do not compromise with your privacy. We design all our products and services with your privacy in mind. We involve experts from various fields, including legal, security, engineering, product design and others to make sure that no decision is taken without respect for your privacy.
We strive to be transparent in the way we process your data. Because we use many of the same online services you do, we know that insufficient information and overly complicated language are common issues in privacy policies. We take the exact opposite approach: we have written our Privacy Policy and related documents in plain language. We actually want you to read our policies and understand our privacy practices!
We work hard to keep your information secure. We have teams dedicated to keeping your data safe and secure. We constantly update our security practices and invest in our security efforts to enhance the safety of your information.
Termination/ Renewability of Subscription
Subscriptions are processed using the payment method subscribers provided on the website. Subscriptions will be automatically renewed until subscribers cancel. If the subscription includes an automatically renewing feature, your payment method will continue to be periodically charged for the subscription until you cancel. After the initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, subscriber’s subscription will automatically continue for the price and time period they agreed to when subscribing, until they cancel.
If subscribers commit to a subscription plan, they agree to pay the prices displayed to them for the Services selected as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on their payments (and as may change from time to time). If subscribers initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with their payment method, True Love Compass may terminate their account immediately in its sole discretion, on the basis that subscribers have determined that they do not want a TLC Connects subscription.
Subscriber’s Right to Cancel – Subscribers may cancel their subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date they subscribed to avoid the auto-renewal of subscription. Subscribers may submit a Subscription Termination request on the True Love Compass website, tlc-dating.com or write to info@tlc-dating.com to cancel their subscription.
Termination by True Love Compass – If we terminate an account for any reason, here is what subscribers need to know.
True Love Compass reserves the right to investigate and, if appropriate, suspend or terminate an account without a refund if the subscriber has violated our Terms, misused our Services, or behaved in a way that True Love Compass regards as inappropriate or unlawful, on or off our Services. We reserve the right to make use of any personal, technological, legal, or other means available to enforce the Terms, at any time without liability and without the obligation to give subscribers prior notice, including, but not limited to, preventing them from accessing the Services.
Refund Policy & Cooling-off Period
Generally, all app subscriptions are final and non-refundable, and there are no refunds for partially used periods.
In accordance with local law, subscribers are entitled to a full refund during the 3 days after the subscription or purchase of value-added services begin. Please note that this 3-day cooling-off period commences when the subscription starts.
Service Recovery and Dispute Resolution
True Love Compass adopts the 3-Step Dispute Resolution Procedure with clients in alignment with SDNTrust guidelines.
Step 1: Identification of Dispute
True Love Compass receives the subscriber’s complaint via email or feedback form on tlc-dating.com website.
Step 2: Resolve to Settlement
True Love Compass will respond and try to resolve the complaint with the subscriber within 3 working days. If the investigation into the complaint cannot be completed within 3 working days, True Love Compass will send a written acknowledgment to the client, indicating the agreed timeframe with client to resolve the dispute.
Step 3: Independent Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
If the dispute remains unresolved, subscribers may approach an independent Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) body, such as the Small Claims Tribunal, Singapore Mediation Centre or CASE.
Profile & Marital Status Verification Service
Subscribers may register for True Love Compass’ profile and marital status verification service. By registering, you agree to allow True Love Compass to make use of requested supporting documents to verify your identity, profile photo and marital status.
Upon successful verification of your profile and marital status, you will be awarded the Verified Profile Badge and Verified Single Badge respectively on your profile page and will be notified by email of the status of your application. After awarded these badges, you MUST NOT attempt to change your profile avatar photo, name, date of birth or marital status.
“Single” in the context of the marital verification service refers to members who are not legally married and may include divorcees and widowers.
True Love Compass’ system has the capability to perform systematic and periodic checks of subscribers’ profile details against previously provided supporting documents. Any attempt by subscribers to make changes to their profile avatar photo, name, date of birth or marital status after verification will result in suspension of their accounts.
Privacy Policy
We appreciate that subscribers trust us with their information, and we intend to always keep that trust. This starts with making sure subscribers understand the information we collect, why we collect it, how it is used and their choices regarding their information. This Policy describes our privacy practices in plain language, keeping legal and technical jargon to a minimum.
Information you give us
It goes without saying, we cannot help subscribers develop meaningful connections without some information about you, such as basic profile details and the types of people you’d like to meet. We also collect information generated as subscribers use our services, for example access logs, as well as information from third parties, like when you access our services through a social media account. If subscribers require additional info, we go into more detail below.
Subscribers choose to give us certain information when using our services. This includes:
- When you create an account, you provide us with at least your login credentials, as well as some basic details necessary for the service to work, such as your email, gender, marital status and date of birth.
- When you complete your profile, you can share with us additional information, such as details on your personality, lifestyle, interests, and other details about you, as well as content such as photos and videos. To add certain content, like pictures or videos, you may allow us to access your camera or photo album. Some of the information you choose to provide us may be considered “special” or “sensitive” in certain jurisdictions, for example your racial or ethnic origins, sexual orientation, and religious beliefs. By choosing to provide this information, you consent to our processing of that information.
- When you commit to a subscription or value-added service, you provide us or our payment service provider with information, such as your debit or credit card number or other financial information.
- When you participate in surveys or focus groups, you give us your insights into our products and services, responses to our questions and testimonials.
- When you choose to participate in our promotions, events or contests, we collect the information that you use to register or enter.
- If you contact our customer care team, we collect the information you give us during the interaction. Sometimes, we monitor or record these interactions for training purposes and to ensure a high quality of service.
- If you ask us to communicate with or otherwise process information of other people (for example, if you ask us to send an email on your behalf to one of your friends), we collect the information about others that you give us in order to complete your request.
- Of course, we also process your chats with other users as well as the content you publish, as part of the operation of the services.
