Law Enforcement Guidelines

1. Overview

Modern Day Matchmaking LLC ("MDM", "we", "us", or "our") is a matchmaking service based in Boulder, Colorado. We recognize the important work of law enforcement and are committed to responding to lawful requests for information in a manner consistent with applicable law, our Privacy Policy, and our users' rights.

As a small business, we hold a limited amount of member information, such as application and assessment details, contact information, and communications with us. We will review each request carefully and disclose information only to the extent required or permitted by law.

2. How to Submit a Request

Law enforcement officials may submit requests for member information by email to hello@moderndaymatchmaking.com with the subject line "Law Enforcement Request." To help us respond accurately and promptly, please include:

• The requesting agency, the name and badge/ID number of the requesting official, and an official agency email address or letterhead;
• A direct contact phone number and email for verification;
• The specific user(s) at issue, identified by full name, email address, and any other identifying details available;
• A clear description of the information sought and the date range;
• A copy of the valid legal process (see Section 3) authorizing the request.

Requests that are overly broad, vague, or unsupported by valid legal process may be narrowed or declined.

3. Required Legal Process

We require valid legal process appropriate to the type of information requested. In general:

• Basic subscriber information (such as a name, email address, or account creation details) may be disclosed in response to a valid subpoena, court order, or equivalent legal process.
• Non-content records (such as transaction or account activity records, to the extent we maintain them) generally require a court order or equivalent legal process.
• Content of communications (such as messages exchanged with us) generally requires a valid search warrant issued upon a showing of probable cause, or other process required by applicable law.

We will not disclose information without appropriate legal process except in the limited emergency circumstances described in Section 4, or where otherwise permitted or required by law.

4. Emergency Requests

If a request involves a genuine emergency — an imminent risk of death or serious physical harm to any person — law enforcement may submit an Emergency Disclosure Request to hello@moderndaymatchmaking.com with "EMERGENCY" in the subject line.

The request should describe the nature of the emergency, the specific harm and why it is imminent, the person at risk, and the information needed to address it. In such cases, we may voluntarily disclose information to the extent we believe in good faith that doing so is necessary to prevent the emergency, as permitted by law.

5. Data Preservation Requests

Law enforcement may request that we preserve specific member records pending the issuance of valid legal process. Preservation requests should identify the relevant user(s) and the information to be preserved. Where reasonable and lawful, we will take steps to preserve available records for a limited period pending receipt of valid legal process.

6. User Notice

Our policy is to notify members of requests for their information before disclosure, so that they may seek to protect their rights, unless we are prohibited from doing so by law or court order, or unless we believe in good faith that notice would be counterproductive or would create a risk of harm. Exceptions include emergencies and matters involving child safety.

7. Child Safety & NCMEC

We have a zero-tolerance policy toward child sexual abuse and exploitation, as described in our Acceptable Use Policy. Where we become aware of apparent child sexual exploitation, we will preserve relevant information, report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and/or appropriate authorities, and cooperate with resulting investigations.

8. Authentication & Costs

We may take reasonable steps to verify the authenticity of any request and the identity of the requesting official before responding, including contacting the agency through publicly listed channels. Requests must come from official government channels; we may decline requests we cannot authenticate. We reserve the right to seek reimbursement for costs associated with responding to legal process, to the extent permitted by law.
