Users may report inappropriate content or behavior and block other users through the features available within the Application.
While SparkUp takes reasonable measures to promote safety, SparkUp does not guarantee the identity, intentions, conduct, or authenticity of every user. Users are responsible for exercising appropriate judgment when communicating with or meeting other users.
6. Subscriptions and Digital Purchases
SparkUp may offer Premium subscriptions and message packs. Purchases and subscriptions are processed through the Apple App Store. Applicable prices, subscription periods, features, and purchase conditions are displayed within the Application before purchase.
Auto-renewable subscriptions may renew automatically in accordance with the applicable Apple App Store terms unless cancelled by the user. Users can manage or cancel subscriptions through their Apple Account settings.
Deleting the Application or a SparkUp account does not automatically cancel an active subscription.
7. Message Packs
Free users may receive a limited number of messages for starting conversations. Once the applicable limit is reached, users may purchase additional message packs within the Application.
Message packs are digital features available only within SparkUp, have no monetary value, cannot be transferred or exchanged, and are non-refundable except where required by applicable law or Apple policies.
8. Personalized Recommendations and Ranking
SparkUp may use automated and AI-assisted systems to personalize profile recommendations and ranking based on user preferences and interactions within the Application.
Personalized recommendations and match results are intended to assist profile discovery and do not guarantee compatibility, communication, a match, or any particular outcome.
Information about the processing of personal data in connection with personalized ranking and related features is provided in the Privacy Policy.
9. User Content
Users retain ownership of the content they provide through SparkUp. By providing content, users grant SparkUp a non-exclusive right to store, process, display, and otherwise use that content only as necessary to operate, provide, moderate, and protect the Service.
Users must own or have the necessary rights and permissions to provide content through the Application and must not infringe the rights of others.
10. Limitation of Liability
