Privacy policy
Last updated 13 November 2026
This explains what information Yu Mi collects, why, who can see it, and the choices you have.
Who we are
Yu Mi runs the dating community at yuandmi.org. We decide how your information is used, which makes us the "controller" of it under data protection law.
Yu Mi is run by Kodesh set apart.
Email: support@yuandmi.org
What we collect
- Your account: your email address, or your name and email from Google if you sign up with Google.
- Your profile: first and last name, date of birth, gender, nearest city, occupation, a short introduction and 2 or 3 photos.
- Your faith and partner answers: your answers about the Sabbath, the feasts, your belief in Yahusha and Yahuah, Torah study, food laws, dress, marriage and children, and what you are looking for in a partner, including age range and distance.
- Your age check: the result of the check and how it was done. Your selfie and any ID are handled by our verification provider, not stored by Yu Mi.
- Your activity: interest you show, messages you send and receive, members you block, and reports you make or that are made about you.
- Your membership: whether you subscribe, your price, renewal dates and payment history. Your card details are handled by our payment provider and never reach Yu Mi.
- When you contact us: the emails you send to support@yuandmi.org.
- If you join our launch list: your email address, and your first name and whether you are a man or woman if you choose to give them, plus which website or app sent you to us.
Your religious beliefs
Your faith answers reveal your religious beliefs, which the law treats as especially sensitive. We only use them to match you with other members and to show them on your profile to the members you match with. We collect them only with your explicit consent, which you give when you answer the questions. You can change your answers at any time, or withdraw your consent by deleting your account.
Who can see what
| Information | Who can see it |
|---|---|
| First name, age, city, occupation, introduction and faith answers | Members of the opposite gender who are matched with you, unless your profile is hidden or one of you has blocked the other |
| Your photos | The same members, as a blurred copy. Only members with a paid subscription see them clearly |
| Your last name, date of birth, email and partner preferences | Never shown to other members |
| Your messages | You and the member you are writing to |
| Reports you make | You and the Yu Mi team. The member you report is not told who reported them |
A small number of Yu Mi team members can see account details, photos and reports in order to review reports and keep the community safe.
How we use your information
| What we do | Why we are allowed to |
|---|---|
| Create your account, show your profile and find your matches | To provide the service you signed up for |
| Use your faith answers for matching | Your explicit consent |
| Check you are over 18 | To keep Yu Mi adults only, and with your consent for the selfie and ID check |
| Send sign-in links, renewal reminders and important account emails | To provide the service |
| Handle your subscription, refunds and billing | To provide the service, and to meet tax and accounting laws |
| Review reports, suspend accounts and prevent fraud and abuse | Our legitimate interest in keeping members safe |
| Answer your emails | Our legitimate interest in helping you |
| Email you about our launch, if you joined the launch list | Your consent, which you can withdraw at any time by unsubscribing or emailing us |
We do not sell your information, we do not show advertising, and we do not use your information to train artificial intelligence.
Companies that help us
These companies process information on our behalf, under contracts that require them to protect it:
- Supabase: stores our database and photos, and handles sign-in.
- Cloudflare: hosts the website and forwards emails sent to support@yuandmi.org.
- Resend: sends our emails, such as sign-in links and reminders.
- Google: only if you choose to sign in with Google. It also provides the fonts used on the site.
- Our payment provider (Segpay): takes subscription payments and keeps the payment records the law requires.
- Our age verification provider: estimates your age from a selfie, or checks your ID if needed. It deletes the images straight after the check.
Until Yu Mi opens, only Supabase, Cloudflare, Resend and Google handle any information, for the launch list. Our payment provider and age verification provider only receive information once Yu Mi opens and you choose to subscribe or take the age check.
Some of these companies process information outside the UK and the European Economic Area, including in the United States. When they do, we rely on approved safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
How long we keep it
- We keep your information while you have an account.
- When you delete your account in My profile, we delete your profile, photos, answers, messages, interest, blocks and reports linked to your account straight away. The member you were writing to also loses that conversation.
- Our payment provider keeps payment records for as long as tax and accounting law requires.
- Emails you send to support are kept for up to 2 years.
- Launch list details are kept until you unsubscribe, or for up to 6 months after launch if you do not create an account.
Keeping it safe
Information travels to and from Yu Mi encrypted. Access rules in our database mean each member can only read their own private details, and photos are kept in private storage that only allowed members can open, through links that expire after an hour. Sign-in uses one-time email links or Google, so there are no Yu Mi passwords to steal.
Cookies and storage on your device
We only store what the site needs to work, such as keeping you signed in. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. The fonts and some site code are loaded from Google Fonts and jsDelivr, which can see your device's internet address when they do.
Your rights
You can ask us to give you a copy of your information, correct it, delete it, limit how we use it, or send it to you in a portable format. You can also object to how we use it, and withdraw your consent at any time. You can already edit your profile, change your answers, hide your profile and delete your account yourself in My profile.
To make a request, email support@yuandmi.org from the address on your account. We will reply within one month. If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office in the UK (ico.org.uk), or to the data protection authority where you live.
Adults only
Yu Mi is only for people aged 18 and over. If we learn that someone under 18 has an account, we close it and delete their information.
Changes to this policy
If we make important changes, we will tell you by email or on the site before they take effect. The date at the top shows when this policy last changed.
