Consumer-impact summary
- Privacy - Yubo collects this info on all signed-up users:[2]
Their date of birth. Yubo has a minimum age of 16, user age gates to separate users into different communities based on age. A real-time photo, taken in-app, that is used by age estimation (AI Age Verification) to confirm the date of birth provided is accurate. Their name and gender. Although their real name is needed to set up their Yubo account, they can then use a different username on their profile. A profile photo that shows their face clearly. This can be a photo from their camera roll or a selfie, but photos of other people, cartoons or pictures of pets can’t be used as the main profile picture. Their email address and mobile number. Their mobile number is later verified and Yubo sends them a confirmation code through it. Also, if they want to be verified, the user must submit an ID (passport or driving licence).
