Effective Date: February 20, 2026
heyyyyAI Inc ("heyyyy," "we," "us," or "our") operates the heyyyy mobile application (iOS and Android) and web application at heyyyy.ai. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our services.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you sign up, we collect information provided through Google Sign-In, including your name, email address, and profile picture.
Profile Data
Information you provide to personalize your experience, such as gender, preferences, bio, and photos.
Chat Messages
Messages you exchange with AI characters within the app.
Photos and Images
Photos you voluntarily submit through optional in-app features, including photos shared in chat and selfies submitted to the Couple Selfie feature. These images may depict your likeness or other subjects you choose to upload. You may only submit photos that you own or have permission to use.
Usage Data
Information about how you interact with the service, including features used, session duration, and in-app actions.
Device Information
Device type, operating system, app version, and unique device identifiers.
Advertising Identifier
With your permission (via Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt), we may collect your device's advertising identifier (IDFA) to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns through services such as AppsFlyer, Meta, Google Ads, and TikTok. We also collect your device's vendor identifier (IDFV) for analytics and attribution purposes.
2. How We Use Your Information

- Send push notifications and service-related communications
- Detect and prevent fraud or abuse
3. AI & Data Processing
Your chat messages are processed by third-party large language model (LLM) providers, including OpenRouter and OpenAI, to generate AI character responses. Before messages are sent to these providers:
- Personally identifiable information (PII) is stripped from the data
- Your data is not used to train AI models
- Messages are processed solely for the purpose of generating in-app responses
Photos and images you submit through optional in-app features (such as photo sharing in chat or the Couple Selfie feature) are processed by third-party image providers to operate those features:
- Content safety moderation is performed by OpenAI's Moderation API prior to any further processing
- AI image generation (for features such as Couple Selfie) is performed by fal.ai, which receives the submitted image solely for the purpose of generating the requested output
- Submitted images are not used to train AI models by our providers
- For the Couple Selfie feature, the photo you submit is not retained on our servers after the generated image is delivered; only the AI-generated output is stored
