7. Children's Privacy and Protection of Minors
Renna is strictly restricted to users aged 16 and older.

8. Your Privacy Rights and Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights including:
- Access to your personal data.
- Correction of inaccurate information.
- Request deletion of your account and personal information.
- Opt-out of certain data processing activities where applicable.
9. Facial Verification Process and Data Handling
To provide identity verification features and maintain a safer community environment, Renna may require users to complete a real-person verification process. During this process, a temporary facial image may be used only for one-time photo similarity comparison and will not be stored after verification.
During this process, users may be required to provide a real-time facial photo or image for verification purposes.
The facial image is used only for a one-time similarity comparison between the submitted verification image and the user's provided profile or verification photo to confirm whether they represent the same person.
We do not:
- Perform facial recognition for identifying individuals.
- Create or store facial biometric templates, facial embeddings, or facial feature profiles.
- Use facial data for advertising, profiling, or any unrelated purposes.
Processing, Storage, and Retention
The facial verification image is processed only for the duration required to complete the verification process.
Regardless of whether verification is successful or unsuccessful:
- The verification image will not be permanently stored.
- The verification image will be deleted immediately after the comparison process is completed.
- We do not retain facial verification data for future use.
Sharing of Facial Verification Data
We do not share facial verification images or related verification information with third parties.
Facial verification data is not sold, rented, transferred, or disclosed to advertisers, marketing partners, or other external organizations.
Security Measures
We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect verification information during processing and ensure that facial verification data is only used for the stated verification purpose.
10. Data Security
We employ industry-standard security measures, including TLS encryption for data in transit and AES-256 encryption for data at rest. Access to backend systems is restricted through appropriate access controls and authentication mechanisms.
11. Creator Monetization and Financial Data
If you qualify as a monetized creator on Renna, we collect necessary financial information to complete payouts.
12. Account Deletion and Data Erasure
You can request account deletion inside the application at any time.
Once confirmed, your public profile and user-generated content will be hidden from public view. Complete clearing of data will be completed within applicable retention periods.
13. Automated Decision-Making
We utilize automated systems for content recommendations and policy enforcement. Users may request human review of moderation decisions.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through appropriate channels.
