Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026 · WaveBottle, operated by Anhui Mingxin Culture Media Co., Ltd. (“we”, “us”, “our”)

WaveBottle is a social app for anonymous drift bottles, matching, and messaging. This policy explains what we collect, why we use it, and your choices. We handle personal data responsibly and in line with common expectations (including transparency similar to PDPA-style notices and GDPR-inspired portability/deletion where applicable).

1. Who we are

Controller / operator: Anhui Mingxin Culture Media Co., Ltd., registered in Anhui, China. Contact: wusaya@outlook.com. Official website: www.deutec.top.

2. Data we collect

Account & profile: nickname, optional profile fields (e.g. gender, age range, country, bio), avatar if you upload one.
Authentication: when you sign in with Google, Apple, or similar, we receive identifiers/tokens from the provider as needed to create your session (we do not receive your password from Apple).
Guest mode: a device identifier may be used to link a guest account to your device.
Content you create: messages, drift-bottle text, and related metadata needed to deliver the service.
Technical data: IP address, app version, approximate diagnostics, and security logs to prevent abuse and operate the service.
Payments (VIP): purchase receipts are validated with Apple/Google; we store subscription state as required for entitlement.

3. How we use data

Safety: moderation, reports, blocks, fraud prevention, and enforcing our Terms and Community Guidelines.
Legal compliance and responding to lawful requests.

We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your messages to train public AI models.

4. Sharing

We share data with infrastructure providers (hosting, databases) under contracts, and with payment/identity providers only as needed. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect users’ safety.

5. Retention

We keep data as long as your account is active and for a limited period afterward for security, legal obligations, and dispute resolution, unless a shorter period is required by law.

6. Your rights

Depending on your region you may have rights to access, correct, delete, export, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to object to certain processing. You can delete your account in-app (Settings). You may request a copy of data we hold via wusaya@outlook.com or use in-app export where available.

7. Children

WaveBottle is intended for adults (e.g. 18+). We do not knowingly collect data from children below the minimum age. If you believe we have, contact us and we will delete it.

8. International transfers

Our servers or processors may be located outside your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards.

9. Changes

We may update this policy and will post the new version here with an updated date.
