Key facts

Free tier: eHarmony's free tier is rated Demo-only; you cannot message your matches without paying.
Cost: The cheapest premium tier costs $13.90/mo in the US.

Safety: eHarmony has 1 cited data or privacy incident(s) on record; the most recent is dated 2012-06.
eHarmony asks for a long questionnaire before it shows you anyone, and that friction is the point. The onboarding and the full messaging paywall both filter for people who want marriage, which is why we score its intent honesty the highest in this set.
The plans are among the better value here on a twelve-month commitment, though the shorter Premium Light is pricey per month. As with Match, the free tier is a demo.
Its only cited incident is old, a 2012 breach of roughly 1.5 million unsalted password hashes, but it belongs on the record.
On price, avoid Premium Light at about $36.54 a month, the worst per-month rate here. The 12-month Premium plan drops to roughly $13.90 a month and is the one to take. Just know eHarmony bills the entire term upfront in a single charge rather than in monthly installments, so you pay the whole plan at signup.
