Detailed Review
Pure presents itself as an open-minded dating app, available through web and mobile apps with an interface in many languages.
Its privacy policy names Online Classifieds AG, Baarerstrasse 8, 6300 Zug, Switzerland (CHE-274.401.166) as the operator and responsible party for personal data.
Verification
The privacy policy describes an age verification flow run by a third-party partner, Veriff, which may use a liveness photo or an identity document.
Photo verification is a further feature the policy mentions.
Published Policies
The site links community rules, safety and privacy notes, a recommendation policy and a consumer health data policy.
These documents are long and written for several jurisdictions.
Swiss Operator
The operator is registered in Switzerland, which counts as European for this directory. Switzerland is outside the EU but has its own data protection law.
The footer copyright reads 2023, so the site pages are not freshly maintained in every area.
Limitations to Consider
Adult-oriented content, so it will not suit everyone. Verification uses a third-party service that handles images and ID data. The homepage is largely client-rendered, so little feature detail could be confirmed, and pricing is not published. Policies are written with US state rules in mind. See Feeld for a comparable UK option.
