Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 2025

Welcome to Dopin (“we,” “us,” or “our”). Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and share your information when you use the Dopin mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By using Dopin, you agree to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the information necessary to provide and secure our Service.

a. Account Information

To create and verify your account, we collect:

  • Phone Number: used for verification, login, and security.
  • Username & Password: for identification and authentication.

Optional data you may choose to share:

  • Profile photo, city, or short bio.
  • Personal interests.
  • Industry or field of work
  • Education level
  • Job title or role
  • Languages spoken
  • Home city or location
  • Relationship status (Single, In a Relationship, Married)
  • Gender (Male, Female, Non-binary, Prefer not to say)

Providing this information is entirely optional and can be edited or deleted at any time. We use it only to improve personalization (e.g., showing relevant events or Dopins nearby) — never for advertising, profiling, or selling user data.

b. Content You Create

You may choose to share content such as:

  • Dopins: user-created events or activities.
  • Chats and Messages: communication within Dopins.
  • Event Submissions: factual event data (title, date, time, and location).

Dopin does not collect or display copyrighted materials such as event images or full descriptive content from external sources.

c. Automatically Collected Information

To ensure app security and performance, we collect:

  • Device data (model, OS version, app version, IP, and language).
  • Usage analytics (features used, frequency, engagement metrics).
  • Location data (only if you enable location access).

We do not track your activities across other applications or websites.

2. How We Use Your Information
  • Verify and secure your account.
  • Deliver Dopin’s core functions (creating, joining, and chatting within Dopins).
  • Review and moderate event submissions.
  • Prevent spam, abuse, and unauthorized access.
  • Improve app performance and user experience.
  • Comply with applicable legal and security obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties.

3. Data Retention
  • Permanent Data: Factual event data and chat histories may be stored permanently to preserve continuity and community records.
  • Account Deletion: When you delete your account, your personal identifiers (phone number, username, profile) are removed.

Some anonymized data (e.g., event metadata, analytics, or safety logs) may remain for system integrity and fraud prevention.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We only share your data under specific and lawful conditions:

a. Service Providers

We engage verified third-party providers for hosting, analytics, and security. These partners are contractually obligated to keep your data confidential and secure.

b. Legal Compliance

  • Comply with laws, court orders, or government requests.
  • Detect, prevent, or address fraudulent or illegal activity.
  • Protect the safety, rights, or property of users or Dopin LLC.

c. Business Changes

If Dopin LLC is involved in a merger, acquisition, or restructuring, your data may be transferred in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

5. Security and Data Protection
  • Encrypted network communications (HTTPS/TLS).
  • Encrypted storage of credentials.
  • Access control and employee confidentiality agreements.
  • Routine audits and system security assessments.

Although no platform is entirely immune from risk, Dopin follows recognized security standards to minimize any potential breach or misuse.

In the event of a data breach, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities as required by law.

6. Your Privacy Rights
  • Access or export your data.
  • Request correction or deletion of personal information.
  • Restrict certain data processing activities.
  • Withdraw consent for optional data features (like location).

To exercise these rights, contactprivacy@dopin.io. We verify all requests before action to protect your account security.

7. Age Restriction

Dopin is designed for users 18 years and older.

We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

If we learn that data from a user under 18 was collected, it will be deleted immediately.

8. External Links and Submissions

Dopin may allow users to include links to external websites or third-party event pages.

These external sites are not owned or operated by Dopin, and their data practices are not covered by this Privacy Policy.

We recommend reviewing their respective policies before sharing personal information or RSVPs through those links.

9. International Data Transfers

Dopin LLC is based in the United States. By using Dopin, you acknowledge that your information may be processed in the U.S. or other jurisdictions where our partners operate.

We implement appropriate safeguards for cross-border data transfers, consistent with international privacy standards.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. When we make significant changes, we will notify users within the app or via an in-app notice.
