Farmers Match respects the privacy of every farmer, rancher, and rural single who joins our community. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep this document plain and honest - the same values we ask of our members.
Information We Collect
Farmers Match collects only the information needed to run a safe, genuine dating platform. This falls into three categories: the details you provide, the way you use the site, and technical data gathered automatically.
Account and Profile Data
When you create a free profile, we collect your name, email address, location (state or region), age, and the profile content you choose to share - such as your farm type, lifestyle priorities, relationship intentions, and photos. You control how much you disclose and can update or remove most of this at any time.
Usage Data
We record how you interact with Farmers Match, including pages you view, searches you run, and profiles you browse. This helps our compatibility system surface better matches and helps us improve the platform. Because our pages are built to work whether or not scripts load, this activity is captured reliably without hiding signals behind unrendered content.
Cookie and Device Data
We automatically collect technical details such as your browser type, device, approximate location from your IP address, and cookie identifiers. This keeps you logged in, remembers your preferences, and protects your account from suspicious activity.
