WeChat Go: The One Travel Tool To Rule Them All

WeChat Go: The One Travel Tool To Rule Them All

WeChat is more than just a chat app. Now, WeChat can help you on your travels around Europe! WeChat and the Netherlands Royal Communications Group (KPN) launched WeChat Go “Europe Experience” Mini Program in late March.

This Mini Program follows the cooperation between WeChat Go and KPN in July 2017 where a KPN WeChat Go SIM card was launched offering coverage in over 32 European territories. The WeChat Go “Europe Experience” Mini Program has launched for six of the most popular travel destinations in its first phase: Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, Rome, London and Barcelona. It’s a one-stop platform for tourists to obtain detailed information about these six cities, including tourist attractions, culinary delights, and shopping.

Not only does it offer details such as opening hours and location descriptions, the Mini Program also allows users to purchase tickets for popular places and receive promotional discount vouchers for local vendors.

These are among the latest steps that WeChat has taken to establish a comprehensive travel experience for Chinese outbound tourists. Following in the footsteps of its collaboration with KPN, WeChat is also now looking to upgrading users’ experiences in United States and Southeast Asia and open more opportunities with overseas business partners.

With all of these new features constantly being rolled out, it is clear that WeChat is increasingly becoming more than just an app. It’s a lifestyle.

‘Will & Grace,’ ‘RHONY’, ‘Runway All Stars’ Say Goodbye and More TV This Week

Check out our weekly guide to TV this week, and make sure you’re catching the big premieres, crucial episodes and the stuff you won’t admit you watch when no one’s looking.

Bravo’s best Real Housewives returns with season 10 of the Real Housewives of New York. This season chronicles the collapse of Countess Luann’s marriage and subsequent arrest, Bobby Zarin’s death and potentially the disastrous boat trip that almost had the cast going full Titanic. All the drunken drama comes roaring back Wednesday at 9 p.m. Eastern on Bravo.

Has there ever been a queen to make such an impact in such little time as Vanessa “Miss … Vanjie” Mateo? I think not. No matter who snatches this season’s crown, she’s a winner, baby. Watch the remaining contestants duke it out for the crown on RuPaul’s Drag Race Thursday at 8 p.m. Eastern on Vh1.

Say farewell to Will, Grace, Jack, Karen and the other assorted kooks as the Will & Grace revival wraps it’s first season back Thursday at 9 p.m. Eastern on NBC.

The sixth Project Runway All Stars winner is decided on Thursday’s finale, 9 p.m. Eastern on Lifetime. Guest judges include Zac Posen and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Rosario Dawson’s “JR” is forced into an awkward double date with the title character on Jane the Virgin, Friday at 9 p.m. Eastern on The CW. Will Petra have to choose one Jane over the other?

HERE’S WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW REGARDING OUR HIV STATUS DATA AND…

HERE’S WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW REGARDING OUR HIV STATUS DATA AND PRIVACY POLICY  

As a company that serves the LGBTQ community, we understand the sensitivities around HIV status disclosure. Our goal is and always has been to support the health and safety of our users worldwide.

Recently, Grindr’s industry standard use of third party partners including Apptimize and Localytics, two highly-regarded software vendors, to test and validate the way we roll out our platform has drawn concern over the way we share user data.

In an effort to clear any misinformation we feel it necessary to state:

  1. Grindr has never, nor will we ever sell personally identifiable user information – especially information regarding HIV status or last test date – to third parties or advertisers.  
  2. As an industry standard practice, Grindr does work with highly-regarded vendors to test and optimize how we roll out our platform. These vendors are under strict contractual terms that provide for the highest level of confidentiality, data security, and user privacy.
  3. When working with these platforms we restrict information shared except as necessary or appropriate. Sometimes this data may include location data or data from HIV status fields as these are features within Grindr, however, this information is always transmitted securely with encryption, and there are data retention policies in place to further protect our users’ privacy from disclosure.
  4. It’s important to remember that Grindr is a public forum. We give users the option to post information about themselves including HIV status and last test date, and we make it clear in our privacy policy that if you choose to include this information in your profile, the information will also become public. As a result, you should carefully consider what information to include in your profile.

As an industry leader and champion for the LGBTQ community, Grindr, recognizes that a person’s HIV status can be highly stigmatized but after consulting several international health organizations and our Grindr For Equality team, Grindr determined with community feedback it would be beneficial for the health and well-being of our community to give users the option to publish, at their discretion, the user’s HIV Status and their Last Tested Date. It is up to each user to determine what, if anything, to share about themselves in their profile.

The inclusion of HIV status information within our platform is always regarded carefully with our users’ privacy in mind, but like any other mobile app company, we too must operate with industry standard practices to help make sure Grindr continues to improve for our community.  We assure everyone that we are always examining our processes around privacy, security and data sharing with third parties, and always looking for additional measures that go above and beyond industry best practices to help maintain our users’ right to privacy.

– Scott Chen, CTO of Grindr
