Privacy Policy
1. Who We Are
FriendshipClub.xyz (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a digital friendship and social networking platform that helps people connect across multiple social networks through curated, positive communities. We operate independently and are not affiliated with any other company or platform (e.g., Telegram, Facebook, etc.). Our goal is to make friendship accessible, safe, and fun for everyone.

4. Community Interaction Data
When you join any FriendshipClub.xyz community (e.g., Telegram or Facebook group), your participation — messages, likes, comments, and media — is handled by that respective social platform, not us.

After that period, data is securely deleted from our servers.
11. Third-Party Platforms

Each of these providers maintains its own secure privacy and data management systems compliant with applicable laws.
