There’s more to Match than just Match. Register with us, create your perfect online dating profile and so you don’t miss out on a chance to find that special someone, your profile can be made visible to members of our dating services for the over 50s or single parents if you’re part of categories of singles they address and you consented to it. That means you will increase your chances of being contacted!

We want Match to be a fun, safe online dating site where you can meet serious, committed singles ready for a real relationship. The safety of our clients is our top priority, and we work hard to keep our site safe. We moderate every single profile picture and description on our site, and the protection of your personal data is our priority.
Plus if you ever feel uncomfortable about a profile or a message you receive you can always block or report a member to our moderators. They’ll be happy to help. We also have lots of tips about making sure you stay safe while you’re using our site and when you decide it’s time to meet in real life. Just take a look in our help centre.
With Match, you’re in charge. You can visit singles’ profiles without alerting them, or set your preferences so you can only be contacted by singles who match your search criteria. The choice is yours!
Choose “Incognito Mode”
Incognito mode is your online dating superpower. It lets you view other people’s profiles discreetly – they won’t know you’ve visited – and ensures you only appear to people you know you’re interested in. Which means less hassle – and more chance of finding a date!
Opt for “Zen Mode”
Zen mode is great when you need a little peace and quiet. Activate it and only people who match your criteria will be able to contact you – so you know they’re worth a look.
Every day, you’ll be sent personalised selections of singles’ profiles by email and via our push notifications. Check out our recommendations wherever you are – don’t let love pass you by!
Talk about yourself. The secret? Be natural, honest and spontaneous. A few lines are enough to make an impression.
Why not add a bit of humour, too?
Be precise: the more search criteria you complete, the greater your chances are of being contacted by singles who share the same interests as you.
Share your photos. Create an album that reflects your personality.
Meet the person who’s right for you thanks to our detailed search.
Discover our personalised selection of detailed dating profiles.
Come and meet other singles at our Match evenings and activities.

Store and/or access information on a device. Develop and improve services. Advertising based on limited data, advertising measurement, and understanding of the audiences.
These tools are necessary for the website/app to function and thus cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling out forms.
These tools allow us to count visits and traffic sources and understand how users move around the website/app. This in turn helps us assess how the website/app performs and which features are the most and least popular so we can continue improving your experience.
These tools are used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and make advertising more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed, selecting advertisements based on your profile and measuring the number of ads displayed and their performance, such as how many people clicked on a given ad. If you do not allow these tools, the ads will be less relevant to you. These tools do not involve the sharing of unique identifiers or other data that would allow third parties to track you across apps and websites.
Cookies, device or similar online identifiers (e.g. login-based identifiers, randomly assigned identifiers, network based identifiers) together with other information (e.g. browser type and information, language, screen size, supported technologies etc.) can be stored or read on your device to recognise it each time it connects to an app or to a website, for one or several of the purposes presented here.
Advertising presented to you on this service can be based on limited data, such as the website or app you are using, your non-precise location, your device type or which content you are (or have been) interacting with (for example, to limit the number of times an ad is presented to you).
Information regarding which advertising is presented to you and how you interact with it can be used to determine how well an advert has worked for you or other users and whether the goals of the advertising were reached. For instance, whether you saw an ad, whether you clicked on it, whether it led you to buy a product or visit a website, etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of advertising campaigns.
Reports can be generated based on the combination of data sets (like user profiles, statistics, market research, analytics data) regarding your interactions and those of other users with advertising or (non-advertising) content to identify common characteristics (for instance, to determine which target audiences are more receptive to an ad campaign or to certain contents).
Information about your activity on this service, such as your interaction with ads or content, can be very helpful to improve products and services and to build new products and services based on user interactions, the type of audience, etc. This specific purpose does not include the development or improvement of user profiles and identifiers.
The choices you make regarding the purposes and entities listed in this notice are saved and made available to those entities in the form of digital signals (such as a string of characters). This is necessary in order to enable both this service and those entities to respect such choices.
This setting controls whether your data is shared with other Match Group companies for certain business purposes including personalizing your experience, tailored recommendations for other Match Group services and better understanding how you use Match Group services.
From time to time, we may show you offers for other Match Group services that we believe you’d be interested in based on your profile and activity on Match Group services. We’ll also measure the effectiveness of and improve our cross-brand marketing efforts as you interact with these offers. If this toggle is off, the offers you see may be less relevant to you. For example, you may see an offer for a service where you already have an account.
When this toggle is on, we will share information about your use of our service (for example, the fact that you have a subscription) within Match Group to help us understand how people typically use Match Group services, for instance by more accurately counting the number of unique registered, active or paid users across Match Group services, how many Match Group services they use on average, how people go from one to the other, and how usage patterns might differ across demographics.
