1. Overview
Genius Matchmaker (“we,” “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what we collect when you use geniusmatchmaker.com, how we use it for private matchmaking and related reminders, and how to contact us or ask us to delete your information. Our services are for adults 18 years of age or older only.
2. What we collect
When you submit an inquiry form or contact us, we may collect:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Your message and details about what you are looking for (for example age range preferences, location in the Bay Area, Instant Date interest)
If you call or email us, we keep the information you choose to share so we can respond. We do not require you to create a public profile on this site.
3. How we use information
We use your information to:
- Respond to inquiries and provide private matchmaking
- Make introductions when appropriate
- Send event or Instant Date reminders when you have asked to be included
- Operate and improve the website
- Comply with law and protect the safety of our clients and staff
We handle inquiries in confidence. We do not use your inquiry details for unrelated marketing lists.
4. SMS / text messages
Text messaging is optional and separate from submitting an inquiry form. We only send SMS if you opt in. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel texts at any time. Reply HELP for help. You can also email or call us to opt out. Consent to receive texts is not a condition of purchasing services.
5. We do not sell personal data
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it with third parties for their own advertising. We may use trusted service providers (for example email, hosting, or SMS delivery) solely to operate our business, under obligations to protect your information.
6. Cookies and basic site data
Our site may use basic cookies or similar technology needed for the site to work (for example remembering a form state or measuring simple traffic). We do not run aggressive advertising trackers for selling your data. You can control cookies through your browser settings; some features may not work if cookies are blocked.
7. How long we keep information
We keep inquiry and contact information only as long as needed for matchmaking, event coordination, legal, or safety reasons, then delete or de-identify it when it is no longer needed.
8. Your choices — contact and delete
You may ask us to:
- Correct information we hold about you
- Delete your inquiry or contact information (subject to limited legal retention needs)
- Stop SMS by replying STOP, or stop email by asking us directly

This service is not for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor contacted us, please tell us so we can delete that information.
10. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after updates means you accept the revised policy.
