Moscow (CNN Business) Tinder users in Russia have a new online partner: The country's intelligence agencies.

Russia's telecommunications regulator Roskomnadzor announced in a statement Monday that the dating app had been added to a register of companies required to share user data with Russian law enforcement and intelligence services, including the FSB, the successor to the Soviet-era KGB.

According to the Roskomnadzor statement, Tinder was added to a special registry that obliges the company to store Russian users' data — including direct messages, photos and video — for up to one year, and to provide it on demand for investigative purposes.
