Badoo EU privacy policy adds Bumble Trading LLC as a second controller and a photo-ranking data section
The new version names Bumble Trading LLC as a second data controller alongside Badoo Trading Limited. It adds a section saying profile-photo engagement data is collected to rank photos, which cannot be turned off. The algorithms section is reworded to cover recommendations 'to everyone' and now lists photo-verification status as an input. The diff is truncated, and the removed legal-basis table and California-rights text may be moved or cut off rather than deleted.
