Law Enforcement & Legal Request Policy
Effective Date: September 19, 2026
Last Updated: September 19, 2026
This Policy explains how Meethouse, operated by Skyroket, handles requests from law enforcement agencies, courts, regulators and other governmental authorities seeking information associated with Meethouse users or the Meethouse service.
Meethouse takes privacy seriously while also recognizing that valid legal processes and emergency circumstances may require disclosure of information.
1. General Principle
Meethouse may disclose personal information where disclosure is:
- required by applicable law
- required by valid legal process
- necessary to comply with a lawful order
- necessary to protect the rights, safety or security of Meethouse, users or another person
- otherwise permitted by applicable law
Meethouse does not voluntarily provide unlimited access to user information merely because a governmental entity requests it.
2. Types of Requests
Meethouse may receive:
- court orders
- subpoenas
- warrants
- production orders
- preservation requests
- regulatory requests
- law enforcement requests
- emergency requests
- other legally valid requests
The requirements for each request depend on the jurisdiction and type of information sought.
3. Requests Should Be Directed to Meethouse
Authorities seeking information should provide requests through appropriate official channels.
Requests should identify:
- requesting authority
- official contact information
- legal basis
- relevant jurisdiction
- specific account or identifier
- categories of information requested
- relevant time period
- applicable deadline
- relevant legal document
4. Specificity
Meethouse may seek clarification where a request is:
- overly broad
- unclear
- incomplete
- technically impossible to identify
- inconsistent with applicable legal requirements
Where legally permissible, Meethouse may request that an authority narrow the request to information relevant to the investigation or proceeding.
5. User Information That May Exist
Depending on the account and circumstances, Meethouse may possess information such as:
- phone number
- email address
- date of birth
- gender
- profile information
- photographs
- account information
- device identifiers
- IP or technical information
- location information
- chat information
- reports
- subscription information
- transaction identifiers
- security information
- crash or technical diagnostic information
Meethouse does not necessarily possess all categories for every user.
6. Location Information
Location information can be particularly sensitive.
If a lawful request seeks location information, Meethouse may evaluate:
- what location information actually exists
- the time period requested
- the legal authority provided
- whether the request is sufficiently specific
- whether disclosure is legally required or permitted
Meethouse does not guarantee that historical location information exists for a particular account.
7. Messages and User Content
Where legally valid, requests may seek:
- chat information
- profile information
- photographs
- reports
- other user-generated content
Meethouse will assess the request under applicable law.
Meethouse does not guarantee that deleted content remains available.
8. Deleted Information
Information deleted from active systems may not be available for disclosure.
However, certain information may remain temporarily in:
- backups
- security logs
- legal records
- fraud-prevention systems
- other systems where retention is legally permitted or required
Deletion does not guarantee immediate physical destruction from every backup system.
9. Emergency Requests
In situations involving an apparent threat of:
- death
- serious bodily injury
- imminent violence
- serious danger to a person
Meethouse may respond to emergency requests where permitted by applicable law.
Emergency requests should clearly explain:
- the nature of the emergency
- the person at risk
- why the information is necessary
- what information is requested
- the urgency
- official contact information
Meethouse may disclose information when legally permitted and reasonably necessary under the circumstances.
10. No Guarantee of Emergency Disclosure
Meethouse cannot guarantee that it will disclose information in every emergency.
Disclosure depends on:
- applicable law
- available information
- technical availability
- authenticity of the request
- circumstances of the emergency
- jurisdiction
Emergency services should be contacted directly when immediate intervention is required.
11. Preservation Requests
Where legally permitted, Meethouse may preserve specified information for a limited period while an authority obtains appropriate legal process.
Preservation does not necessarily mean disclosure.
A preservation request may require a subsequent lawful request for production.
12. Legal Review
Meethouse may review requests for:
- authenticity
- jurisdiction
- legal authority
- scope
- relevance
- specificity
- applicable privacy obligations
Where appropriate, Meethouse may consult legal advisers.
13. Cross-Border Requests
Meethouse operates internationally.
A request from one country concerning a user or information located in another country may raise additional legal issues.
Meethouse may consider:
- applicable local law
- jurisdiction
- international legal-assistance mechanisms
- treaty obligations
- data-protection requirements
- conflict-of-law issues
Meethouse may require appropriate legal process before disclosing information.
14. Requests From Foreign Authorities
Foreign government requests may be evaluated under applicable law and available international mechanisms.
Where appropriate, Meethouse may require requests to proceed through recognized legal channels.
15. User Notification
Where legally permitted, Meethouse may notify an affected user of a legal request.
Meethouse may not notify a user where:
- notification is prohibited by law
- a court order prohibits notice
- notification would jeopardize an investigation
- an emergency circumstance makes notification inappropriate
- another lawful restriction applies
Where legally permissible, Meethouse may delay notification until the relevant restriction expires.
16. Challenging Requests
Where appropriate and legally permissible, Meethouse may:
- seek clarification
- request narrowing
- object to an insufficient request
- challenge a request
- seek legal review
- decline to provide information not legally required
Meethouse's response depends on the specific legal circumstances.
17. Compliance With Privacy Laws
Meethouse may be subject to privacy requirements including, where applicable:
- Indian data-protection law
- EU GDPR
- UK GDPR
- California privacy law
- other applicable privacy laws
Government requests do not automatically eliminate applicable legal privacy obligations.
18. Account Security
Meethouse may provide information necessary to protect:
- account security
- platform security
- users
- employees
- infrastructure
- third parties
19. Fraud and Abuse Investigations
Meethouse may preserve or disclose information where permitted or required to:
- investigate fraud
- investigate account compromise
- prevent financial crime
- investigate abuse
- protect users
- enforce platform rules
- comply with law
20. Law Enforcement Does Not Receive Direct System Access
Meethouse does not provide routine unrestricted access to its databases or user accounts merely because an authority requests information.
Information is handled through appropriate channels and subject to applicable law.
21. No Guarantee of Complete Records
Meethouse cannot guarantee that all information requested by an authority:
- exists
- was collected
- remains available
- is technically retrievable
- is attributable to a particular person
Technical limitations, deletion and retention practices may affect availability.
22. Accuracy
Information supplied in response to a lawful request will be provided based on the information reasonably available to Meethouse.
Meethouse does not guarantee that information supplied by users is accurate.
23. Transparency
Where appropriate and legally permissible, Meethouse may publish aggregated information concerning government requests, legal requests or transparency matters.
Any transparency reporting will avoid disclosures that are prohibited by law or that could compromise investigations or user security.
24. Contact for Authorities
Law enforcement and government authorities should use an official channel and provide sufficient documentation to authenticate the request.
