FORBES - Oct 1 - In an article published on the Guardian UK, Judith Duportail made use of the European Union's data protection laws to request Tinder that they release all the data that they have available on her. She received eight hundred pages. Tinder managed to secure a staggering amount of data on her personal life, even her most intimate moments. Tinder makes it very clear from the get-go that information shared with the app is not certain to remain private. There should be laws to enforce this, but there really aren't any. A dating app, in the eyes of law, is just like any other app. Based on the information disclosed on its terms of usage, it has every right to use your information however it sees fit.
