Bumble EU policy adds legitimate interests as a legal basis for some feedback features
For profile and photo feedback, the policy previously cited only contractual obligation as the legal basis. It now says optional features like photo feedback or best photo rely on contractual obligation, while non-optional ones like prompt feedback rely on Bumble's legitimate interests. The six-year retention after account deletion is unchanged.

Won back
- Clearer explanation of which feedback features rely on which legal basis
