Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 13, 2026

Welcome to Afirin.Net. Your privacy is incredibly important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information when you use our social platform, filter country-specific content, or engage with other members.

By accessing or using Afirin.Net, you agree to the terms laid out in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

To provide our location-filtered experience and community features, we collect the following types of information:

Account Information: When you register, we collect your name, email address, username, and password.
Profile and Location Data: To power our country-filtering feature (e.g., viewing posts, events, offers, and jobs in the Maldives or other regions), you may choose to provide your location or select your preferred region.
User-Generated Content: We store the original photos, posts, event listings, course links, and job postings that you publish on the platform.
Payment Details (Payout Setup Only): To allow other members to send you gifts, you may choose to list your third-party payment details (such as your PayPal email or Bank Account number) directly on your public profile or donation interface.

2. Direct Member Gifting & Financial Data Disclaimer

Afirin.Net features a unique, decentralized gifting system designed to support creators directly.

No Transaction Processing: Afirin.Net does not act as a payment processor, payment gateway, or financial intermediary. We do not handle, touch, or process the funds sent between members.
Direct Peer-to-Peer Transfer: When you link your PayPal or Bank Account details, you display those details so that other members can transfer gifts directly to you using those third-party services.
Third-Party Liability: All financial transactions occur strictly between users on external platforms (like PayPal or your banking portal). Afirin.Net is not liable for transaction failures, disputes, refunds, or security breaches occurring on these third-party platforms. Please review their respective privacy policies before transacting.

3. Strict Original Content Policy

To maintain an authentic environment, Afirin.Net strictly mandates that members must only post their own original content.

If you post plagiarized, stolen, or copyrighted materials belonging to others, your content will be removed, and your account may be permanently suspended.
By posting on Afirin.Net, you grant us a license to display your content to other users (and filter it by country/category), but you retain full ownership of your original work.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the data we collect to:

Operate, maintain, and optimize the Afirin.Net platform.
Categorize and filter content accurately by country, popular status, recent activity, and category (Events, Offers, Courses, Photos, Jobs).
Facilitate connection and direct gifting between creators and their audiences.
Enforce our Terms of Service and protect the community against fraud, spam, and copyright infringement.

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We respect your data privacy. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Your data is only shared in the following scenarios:

Public Display: Information you choose to put on your public profile (such as your posts, country, or payment handles for gifts) will be visible to other users.
Legal Compliance: We may disclose your information if required to do so by applicable laws, or in response to valid legal requests by public authorities (e.g., to comply with regional data protection and cybersecurity frameworks).

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you reside, you may have specific rights regarding your personal information, including:

Access & Correction: The right to view and update your profile details and linked payment accounts at any time.
Content Deletion: The right to delete your original posts or request the permanent deletion of your account.
Location Privacy: You can change or remove your regional preferences, though this will impact your ability to experience localized country feeds.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our features or local regulatory updates. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date."
