Android apps have to request [0] Location Permissions to access the device's location at all. There are different permissions for foreground and background access and for coarse and fine precision, but it does require some explicit permission no matter what. Now, the app's behavior when denied that permission (i.e., whether you will be allowed to use Tinder at all if you deny location permissions) are up to the developer.
