ENGADGET - Mar 30 - In Norway, Tinder recently got into trouble over how its terms and conditions are worded, according to regional news publication Dagens Næringsliv. Under the old terms Tinder had "sweeping" ownership and control over user data. More than that, Tinder could change its terms and even delete user accounts without any sort of notification. Because of the Council's inquiry, Tinder has changed how it'll do business. The changes were:
- Norwegian consumers get Norwegian conditions
- Terms must be easier to understand and shorter
- A summary of the short-form terms will be present before the terms are agreed upon
- Norwegian and European protection rules apply
- Notification of changes to the agreed upon terms
- User-generated items will be deleted when an account is terminated
