Last updated on January 10, 2024

This Terms of Service( the “Agreement”) is a contract between you and Sugar Match (“We”, "Company", “our” or “us”) and we want you to know yours and our rights before you use our application (the “App” or “Software”)and related services( the “Service”). This Agreement does not apply to any third-party websites, services or applications, even if they are accessible through our Services.

INTRODUCTION
        The app Sugar Match you are visiting is a Subsidiary Site of SDMeet.app and the service terms of SDMeet.app will apply to this candieapp.site.
SDMeet.app ("we," "us," or "our") is pleased to make the Sugar Match app, dating service(as applicable, the "Service") available to you. By registering for the Service, you agree to be bound by the terms set forth in this End User Service Agreement, our Privacy Policy, and all other provisions and policies associated with your access and use (the "Agreement").
        SDMeet.app owns and operates a number of dating websites ("Main Sites") & apps. Although the Main Sites are under common ownership, each has its own members and maintains its own database for storing member profiles and other information provided. Unless otherwise specified below, Member profiles or other information are not shared between these Main Sites. The profile of a member who has registered on one Main Site will not be visible to members of a different Main Site unless that member has separately registered for and created a profile on each Main Site. The only circumstance in which we may share data about members of one Main Site with another Main Site is for security and fraud prevention purposes.
        In addition to our Main Sites, SDMeet.app owns and operates a number of affiliated dating websites that help us provide potential matches for our Members ("Affiliate Sites"). Each Main Site has its own Affiliate Sites that are specifically associated with the Main Site. Users who seek to register through the Affiliate Site are redirected to the Main Site to become a Member. Anyone who seeks to register via an Affiliate Site for SDMeet.app will be directed to become a member of candieapp.site. In addition to the registration function, our Affiliate Sites may provide additional information about our Service, including but not limited to frequently asked questions and contact information. Regardless of whether you register by accessing the Main Site or through one of its Affiliate Sites, you will become a Member of SDMeet.app and your profile will be accessible to all other Members of SDMeet.app, including but not limited to those members who registered through a different Affiliate Site.
        Separate from these Main Sites and Affiliate Sites, certain third-party websites may provide links to our Main Sites and Affiliate Sites ("Third Party Sites"). These Third Party Sites are not owned or operated by SDMeet.app. We do not provide any data about our Members to these Third Party Sites, and we are not responsible for the privacy policies or information practices of these Third Party Websites; we also are not liable for any information that you share with these Third Party Websites prior to being directed to us.

In addition to our "Affiliate Sites" and “Third Party Sites,” some of our Main Sites are associated with one or more Subsidiary Sites ("Subsidiary Sites").  For example, Sugar Match is a Subsidiary Site of our Main Site, SDMeet.app.  When users log in to a Subsidiary Site, they will remain on the Subsidiary Site at all times rather than be redirected to the Main Site.  We share information between and among SDMeet.app,   its Affiliate Sites, and its Subsidiary Sites. Anyone who seeks to register via a Subsidiary Site for SDMeet.app will become a member of SDMeet.app.  In addition to the registration function, our Subsidiary Sites may provide all the functions and additional information about our Service, including but not limited to frequently asked questions and contact information. Regardless of whether you register by accessing the Main Site or through one of the Subsidiary Sites, you will become a Member of SDMeet.app and your profile will be accessible to all other Members of SDMeet.app, including but not limited to those members who registered through a different Subsidiary Site or Affiliate Site. Also, you can log in with the same account information on both the Main site and its Subsidiary Sites after you create an account on any of these sites.
