Contact and data controller
Contact Vynli at support@vynli.nl about your account and personal data. The full legal name, registered address and other details of the data controller still need to be added.
Which data do we use?
Registration uses your name, date of birth, email address and gender if supplied. An email link lets you set your password and confirm your email address. You can later add your city, favorite food and hobbies and set the audience for profile details on your profile. Passwords are hashed. IP addresses, browser details, sign-in attempts and security changes are recorded for account security; IP addresses and browser details are encrypted at rest. We also store your language, time zone, bio, profile images, privacy choices, notifications and notification preferences, friendships, group memberships, posts, photos, videos, comments and likes. For games we store participants, game progress and in-game text messages. When you contact us, we process your contact details and question.
Why do we use this data?
Account and content data are needed to provide the features you request, such as signing in, sharing and playing together. This is processing for performance of the contract. Technical session data, such as an IP address and browser information, helps operate and secure the service. The specific balancing of interests for security logging and any other processing still needs documentation.
Who can see your content?
Friends-only posts are visible to you and accepted friends. Public posts on a public profile can be viewed without an account. A restricted profile limits access to its posts and photos. Only me hides content from other members. Custom photo albums are accessible to you and your friends. Public groups are accessible to signed-in members; private groups to their owner and members. Game messages are accessible only to the participants in that game. A recipient can copy or forward content; only share information you want that audience to receive. Authorised moderators can review published content. Only a private message reported by a participant is made available for moderation. The community rules describe review and access.
Your privacy choices
Under My account → Privacy, choose separately who can view your profile and who can find you. New settings default to Friends. Choose the audience for each profile detail and post. You can also manage friend requests and game invitations. The security center lets you sign out devices and report unfamiliar sessions. Your email address is not displayed in general profile or search results. Change your name, bio, language and time zone through your account or profile.
Retention, deletion and recovery
Deleted content disappears from normal views and direct links. Vynli retains original content and files for restoration by authorised administrators only. No automatic permanent deletion period for original content has been configured yet. Sensitive copies in closed moderation cases and contact details are minimised after 365 days unless an appeal remains open. The moderation audit log remains available. Security history and inactive device sessions older than 90 days are cleaned up daily. Incomplete registrations are removed approximately two days after their email link expires; temporary profile details are cleared immediately on completion. Other retention periods still need to be established. Contact us to request permanent deletion.
Cookies and other services
Vynli uses necessary cookies for your session, security and optionally staying signed in. An encrypted device cookie helps recognize new devices and lasts up to one year. Your browser also remembers which game alerts you have seen. Example images may load from Unsplash, which receives technical information including your IP address. Hosting and email services process data to operate Vynli. The suppliers, processing locations and any safeguards for transfers outside the EEA still need confirmation.
Your privacy rights
You can request access, correction, deletion, restriction or transfer of your data and, where applicable, object or withdraw consent. Email support@vynli.nl from your account email address. We may request proportionate identity verification; do not send an identity document in advance. You may lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority.
