It's your data and always will be.
Geneva does not own your data. Members of your groups ("homes") on Geneva do not own your data. We will never sell your data to third parties and we will never show you advertising. Our app does not track or collect location information, nor does it use 3rd party cookies, web beacons, pixels or fingerprinting. You can learn more about our business model here.
Your Geneva home is your own private space.
Groups ("homes") on Geneva are private. We do not see messages or any other content inside your home. We can only see messages that are flagged to us by users for violating our Town Rules or Terms of Service.
We collect your location to recommend homes for you to join.
We require that you share your physical location with us when you create an account so you can discover homes in your location. After you set a location, other Geneva users will be able to view the city you’re in through your profile, but will never be able to see your precise location. You may opt out of displaying your location in your profile. We only collect precise location if you check into an IRL event organized through Geneva that has enabled geofenced check-in.
We collect your birthday to help you connect with other users around the same age.
We require that you share your birthday with us when you create an account. After you set a birthday, other Geneva users will be able to see your age through your profile, but will never be able to see your exact birthday. You may opt out of displaying your age in your profile.
Sharing your contacts is optional.
We give you the option to sync the contact list on your phone with Geneva so that you can easily invite your contacts to a Geneva home and discover the homes your contacts are in. You can control whether other users can discover you and your homes in your account settings. We do not share your phone number with other users on Geneva.
Syncing contacts is entirely optional. If you opt to sync contacts, we keep a record of your contacts list so we can let you know when your contacts join Geneva. If you un-sync your contacts, we will delete their information from our servers.
