How do you protect your privacy on a dating site?

Been quietly reading for a while, but protect your privacy on a dating site is the thing I actually need an answer on. My problem with privacy dating site so far has been the data side.

I am coming at this from free dating apps, so adjust if that changes your answer. The thing people underrate about privacy dating site is how much privacy handling depends on your own city.

Concretely, for privacy dating site:

• Message within a day of matching — on privacy dating site that window closes fast
• Give privacy dating site a fortnight of daily use before calling profile findability a dealbreaker
• Set the radius wider than feels comfortable if the privacy dating site pool near you is thin
• Check what privacy dating site does about photo handling before you upload anything you would not want indexed
• Do not move off privacy dating site into private messaging until the link to your real name looks handled
