Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 17, 2026
Last Updated: April 17, 2026
Cheeky Loo (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you have regarding your information when you use cheekyloo.com (the “Site”) and related services.
1. Who We Are
Cheeky Loo is operated by Cheeky Loo LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Illinois, United States.
For any privacy-related questions or requests, contact us at hello@cheekyloo.com.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information:
Information You Provide Directly
• Account information: When you create an account, we collect your email address, a display name of your choosing, and a password (which we store only in encrypted/hashed form). You may also optionally provide your real name.
• Reviews and content: When you submit a bathroom review, rating, photo, or comment, we collect and store that content along with your account identifier.
• Communications: If you contact us (for example, via email to hello@cheekyloo.com), we retain your message and any information you include.
Information Collected Automatically
• Device and usage information: When you visit the Site, we automatically collect limited technical information such as your browser type, device type, operating system, referring website, and pages visited. This is used to operate and improve the Site.
• Cookies: We use essential cookies required for core functionality such as keeping you logged in and maintaining session security. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
• Analytics: We may use privacy-friendly analytics tools that collect aggregated, anonymized information about Site usage (such as page views and visitor counts). These tools do not track individuals across websites.
Location Information
• Transient location: When you use features like "Near Me" to find bathrooms near you, your device shares its approximate location with us only for the purpose of returning relevant results. We do not store your location data after the search is complete. Your location is used in the moment and then discarded.
Photo Information
• Uploaded photos: When you upload a bathroom photo, we store the image on secure cloud hosting for display on the Site.
• EXIF data removal: Photos taken with mobile devices often include hidden metadata (EXIF data) that can reveal GPS coordinates, timestamps, and device information. We automatically strip this metadata from uploads to protect your privacy.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
• Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its features
• Create and manage your account
• Publish reviews, ratings, and photos you submit
• Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
• Enforce our Terms of Use and keep the Site safe (including moderating inappropriate content)
• Comply with legal obligations
• Communicate important updates about the Site or your account
We do not use your information for advertising, behavioral profiling, or automated decision-making that produces legal effects.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We never have, and we never will.
We share information only in the following limited circumstances:
• Service providers: We use trusted third-party services to operate the Site, including providers for hosting, database storage, email delivery, mapping/geolocation, and image hosting. These providers only access information as necessary to perform their services and are contractually obligated to protect it.
• Publicly visible content: Any reviews, ratings, photos, or display names you post are visible to other users of the Site. Do not post anything you wouldn't want to be publicly associated with your account.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or court order, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Cheeky Loo, our users, or the public.
• Business transfers: If Cheeky Loo is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change.
5. Your Choices and Rights
You have the following rights regarding your information:
All Users
• Access and update: You can view and update your account information at any time by logging into your account.
• Delete your account: You may request deletion of your account and associated data by emailing hello@cheekyloo.com. We will process your request within 30 days. Note that anonymized or aggregated data may be retained, and legal/safety requirements may require us to retain certain records.

6. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including:
• Encrypted storage of passwords
• Secure (HTTPS) connections throughout the Site
• Access controls limiting who can view user data
• Regular security reviews of our systems
No online service can guarantee perfect security. If we become aware of a security incident affecting your information, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
7. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. When you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
8. Children's Privacy
Cheeky Loo is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with information, please contact us at hello@cheekyloo.com.
Note: Cheeky Loo's features, such as filtering for "Baby Changing" amenities, describe characteristics of bathrooms, not characteristics of users. We do not collect information about users' children.
9. International Users
Cheeky Loo is operated from the United States. If you access the Site from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. By using the Site, you consent to such transfer.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. When we do, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. If the changes are material, we will provide additional notice (such as by email or a prominent notice on the Site).
Your continued use of the Site after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
