Privacy Policy
Last updated November 7, 2026
Jamyvo is a free social community for people aged 18 and over, operated by AssignMe LLC (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have.
What we collect
- Account details: your name, username, email address, and a securely hashed password. Your email is not displayed on your public profile or ordinary social interactions. Optional creator payments have the billing disclosures below.
- If you sign in with Google, Apple or YourStudy Space: your name, your confirmed email address and an account identifier from that service, so we can recognize you next time. We never receive your password for that service, your contacts or anything else in that account. With Apple you can choose “Hide My Email”, and we then receive an Apple relay address instead of your own.
- Profile details you choose to add: photo, bio, role, interests, and website.
- Your date of birth, if you enter it: asked once, before you view sensitive content, to confirm you are 18 or older. It is never shown to other members.
- Content you share: posts, text threads, stories, videos, photos, audio, documents, titles, descriptions, comments, live chat, and direct messages.
- Activity: friend requests and accepted friendships, follows, likes, saves, views and how long you watch, shares, searches and the #tags you use, the interests you pick, blocks, reports, notifications, and settings.
- Your country: from your network or your device’s time zone, or the one you choose in Settings › Privacy & safety.
- Your area and college: your area is set automatically until you choose one. From your internet (IP) address we work out roughly where you are (usually your State or country) with DB-IP’s database (IP Geolocation by DB-IP, CC BY 4.0), which is kept on our own server: your address isn’t sent anywhere for this and isn’t stored for it. When your phone already allows Jamyvo its location, or you allow it on Home’s Area or College tab, your position is used in the same way as below to find your city and colleges near you. Choosing your own area stops the automatic updates. We keep the country, State, county, city and college that are set. If you tap “Use my location” or “Find colleges near me”, your device shares its position once, with your permission. We round it to about 100 metres and send it to OpenStreetMap’s public services (Nominatim and Overpass) to look up place and college names, and show them to you to check before anything is saved. We don’t store or log your position, and only the names you save are kept.
- Technical information: a session cookie that keeps you signed in, and your IP address, which we use briefly to prevent abuse (for example, rate limiting). We don’t use advertising trackers or sell analytics data.
Private collections, groups and recordings
My collection stores your notes, idea cards, review history and planner tasks in your account so you can reopen them on another device. These are private to you. Share a card creates a separate image for your review; nothing is published until you choose Post. Group messages and attachments are available to active members of that group. Group owners can remove messages or members; removing membership stops future access, but cannot recall copies already saved by someone. Group members can see the total number of members participating in the daily challenge, not their answers.
Camera and Beat studio request camera or microphone access only for capture. Beat generation and vocal mixing happen on your device. A recording is sent to our server only if you publish it. Closing the studio discards an unsaved recording. Reposts link to the original creator’s public post and respect that post’s current visibility and reuse settings. My collection items can be deleted individually; account deletion also removes study data and groups you own.
How we use it
- To run the service: show your profile and posts, deliver messages and notifications, and personalize the “For you” feed based on activity in the app (what you watch longest, like, save, comment on, share and search for, your chosen interests, and your country).
- To email you: sign-in and sign-up codes, password resets, a welcome when you join, and security notices (such as a password, email or two-step sign-in change, or account deletion). If you haven’t visited for a week and something happened on your account, we may send a short update with counts only (new followers, likes, comments, unread messages; never message text), at most once a week and a few in a row. Turn these updates off with the link in the email or in Settings › Notifications.
- To answer help questions from Tunza, the in-app helper, and to summarize search results.
- To keep the community safe: review reports, enforce our Community Guidelines, and prevent spam and abuse. Posts, comments, messages and live room text are checked automatically before they appear, for example for slurs, threats, scams and patient information. Posts (text, and the photo or a video’s cover image), comments and group-chat messages are also checked by an AI service, which may blur them as sensitive or send them to a moderator. Moderators don’t read your private messages unless they are reported; end-to-end encrypted messages can’t be read by us at all.
- To translate posts, comments and messages when you tap Translate, and to recognize which language a post is written in.
- To communicate with you about your account, such as password resets.
- To fix problems and improve the app, including feedback you send us.
Who can see what
- Public profiles and public posts can be viewed without signing in. Private profiles are limited to the owner and accepted friends; each post also respects its own audience. Administrator accounts and their content are visible only to their owner.
- Saved and liked collections are private to you.
- Direct messages are visible only to you and the person you’re messaging. Moderators may review messages that are reported to them.
- Each post has its own audience: Everyone, Friends (people who accepted a friend request) or Only you. The creator also chooses whether others can download it or send it in messages.
- Live room video is visible only to the host and people the host admits. A host may record a class on their own device; everyone in the room sees a REC sign while it records, and the host can save the recording to their profile.
- Marketplace listings (title, description, photos, price and the city you choose) are visible to signed-in members until you delete them (a listing marked sold leaves Marketplace but its link still opens). Saved listings are private to you; a seller sees how many people saved a listing, not who.
- Events, and who said Going or Interested, are visible to the people who can see the event (everyone signed in, or the host’s friends). An online event’s joining link is shown only to the host and people going.
Passkeys and device notifications
You can add a passkey for device-based sign-in. Jamyvo stores its public key, credential identifier, name and usage timestamps. Face ID, fingerprints and device screen-lock verification happen on your device; Jamyvo does not receive biometric images or templates. You can remove passkeys in Sign-in & security after email confirmation. Existing authenticator-app verification remains required when enabled.
Native notifications are optional. If you enable them, Jamyvo stores an encrypted device registration token linked to your signed-in session and sends notifications through Apple Push Notification service on iPhone/iPad or Firebase Cloud Messaging on supported Android devices. A notification can say who liked, followed, commented or messaged you (turn names off in Settings › Notifications), and contains routing and account identifiers and an unread count, but never the text of a message. We store the device’s time zone for quiet hours and the result of the last delivery to that device. Notification registrations are removed when you sign out of that session or delete your account. You can turn notifications off for a device or through account preferences and system settings.
Sharing
We don’t sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us run the app (such as hosting, storage, live video delivery and email delivery) under confidentiality obligations. To keep the community safe, the text and the photo or video cover image of posts, the text of comments and the text of group-chat messages are sent to Anthropic (Claude) to check our Community Guidelines. When you tap Translate, the text you are translating is sent to Anthropic to translate it; for an end-to-end encrypted message, only the message you chose is sent, and we don’t keep it. One-to-one end-to-end encrypted messages are otherwise never sent. Tunza answers app-help questions from app documentation; app-help questions and search terms are not sent to an external AI model. We also share information when required by law, or to protect the safety of people using the service. If advertising is introduced in the future, we will update this policy before it begins and explain your choices.
Stories and disappearing messages
Messages stay saved unless the sender chooses disappearing mode for that message. A disappearing message becomes unavailable 24 hours after the recipient first views it in an accepted conversation; opening an unaccepted message request does not start the timer. Stories become unavailable 24 hours after posting and can be deleted sooner. Expired content is removed from active storage during cleanup. Recipients can make screenshots or other copies outside the app; disappearing mode cannot remove those copies, and retained backups follow their normal rotation.
Story audiences can be Everyone (signed-in members) or Friends. Removing a friend or blocking an account stops their future access to friends-only stories and posts. Existing mutual follows are carried into accepted friendships once during this upgrade to preserve the audience of older friends-only content.
Retention and deletion
We keep your information while your account is active. You can delete posts, comments, messages you sent and conversations at any time (Settings › Your content), and you can permanently delete your account in Settings › Account. Deleting your account removes your profile, posts, uploaded files, comments, likes, follows and messages from our active systems. Backups are overwritten on a rolling basis.
Your choices and rights
- Download a copy of your data in Settings › Your data.
- Control who can comment on your posts and who can message you in Settings › Privacy & safety.
- Block or report any account.
- Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights to access, correct, or delete your information. Contact us to make a request.
Security
Passwords are stored using a strong one-way hash, sessions use secure cookies, and connections are encrypted in transit. New one-to-one private messages sent through the updated app use end-to-end encryption with the Matrix Olm/Megolm client engine, including photos and videos. Decryption keys remain in participating devices’ local storage. The service stores and relays encrypted content, public device keys and encrypted key-delivery events. It can see participants, times, approximate sizes and delivery/read metadata. The first device keys are remembered automatically; compare device fingerprints outside this chat to verify who controls them. Changed devices require explicit approval before sending. A saved encrypted message-key backup and its separate recovery key can restore the history keys it contains. We cannot recover a lost recovery key. New devices do not automatically receive earlier history. Older direct messages, group chats and Relay conversations still use server encryption, not end-to-end encryption, and are labeled accordingly in private conversations. Moderators receive selected decrypted direct-message text only when a participant explicitly shares it in a report. Recipients can save or redistribute messages. End-to-end encryption does not protect a compromised device or malicious app update. Two-step sign-in with an authenticator app is available in Settings. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a unique password. Report a security problem to support@assignme.health.
Photo and video details
Photos and videos from phones and cameras often carry hidden details: where they were taken (GPS), the device, and the date. For public/social uploads we remove these before anyone else can see them; the picture and sound themselves are not changed. To make the app fast, we also keep a lighter copy of each photo and video for feeds and profiles, beside your original. End-to-end encrypted private attachments preserve the original bytes, including embedded metadata, which recipients can inspect; the server cannot strip metadata from ciphertext.
Safety and legal requests
If you send a request on our Safety & legal requests pages (for example, about intimate images shared without consent, child safety, or copyright), we keep what you send, your email address and the time, stored encrypted, to handle the request and as a record of it. For copyright notices, we may share the notice with the member whose content was removed. Content removed for child sexual exploitation may be kept, encrypted, for one year for a report to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, as US law requires.
Age requirement
Jamyvo is only for people aged 18 or older. We don’t knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has an account, contact us and we’ll remove it.
Changes
We’ll post updates here and change the date above. For significant changes, we’ll let you know in the app.
