DapUp Corp. ("DapUp", "Company", "we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use our mobile application ("DapUp" or the "App"), website, and related services (collectively, the "Services").
By accessing or using DapUp, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the data practices described herein.
We collect several types of information to provide and improve our Services:
We do not sell your personal data. We share information only as necessary:
We engage third-party service providers under strict confidentiality terms to perform functions such as cloud hosting, analytics, push notifications, customer support, and payment processing.
Basic profile data (name, photo, age, bio) is visible to others during mutual contact discovery or connection requests. Messages are shared between users only upon connection, and we do not retain or access messages post-delivery if end-to-end encryption is enabled.
If DapUp undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any material changes in ownership or use.
Personal information collected for the purpose of SMS messaging (including your phone number and opt-in consent) will not be shared, sold, or traded with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. This excludes text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
DapUp offers an optional feature that enables new users to establish a direct network connection with the Company's co-founders, Jake Cameron and Brian Eddelson (collectively, the "Founders"), upon first use of the App. This section describes how that feature works and the data practices associated with it.
When you elect to use the "DapUp with Jake and Brian" feature within the App, the following actions occur automatically and server-side upon your affirmative tap of the designated button:
This feature is entirely voluntary. You must affirmatively tap the "DapUp with Jake and Brian" button to initiate it. No connection is made without your explicit action.
In connection with this feature, DapUp processes the following data:
Jake Cameron and Brian Eddelson are individual users of DapUp who also serve as co-founders and officers of DapUp Corp. Their accounts are operated in both a personal and representative capacity. By initiating the founder connection feature, you acknowledge that:
You may remove your connection with either or both Founders at any time using the standard connection management features of the App, consistent with your rights under Section 4(A). Removal of the connection does not retroactively delete prior group messages, which remain subject to the data retention policy in Section 6.
You can edit your profile, manage location and contact access permissions via device settings, enable or disable discovery and visibility settings, and deactivate or delete your account in the App.
You can opt-out of SMS communications at any time by replying STOP to any message you receive from us, or through your app settings.
If you reside in California, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and share; access your data and request a portable copy; request deletion of your personal information; and opt-out of data sales (DapUp does not sell user data). To exercise these rights, email: privacy@dapup.app. We will respond within 45 days.
No system is completely secure. You are advised to protect your credentials and report suspicious activity promptly.
We retain your information as long as your account is active; for a reasonable period after deletion (30–60 days) for backup, legal, or fraud-prevention purposes; and as required by law. You may request data deletion via the in-app delete option or by emailing us.
DapUp is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If we become aware that a user is under 18, we will delete their account and all associated data.
Although DapUp is U.S.-based, users from other countries may access the App. If you use DapUp from outside the United States, you consent to transferring your data to and being governed by U.S. data laws, which may differ from your country's regulations.
We currently do not respond to DNT browser signals, as there is no universal standard for this setting.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If material changes are made, we will notify you through the App or by email. Continued use of the App after updates constitutes your acceptance.

To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, DapUp Corp. shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of goodwill, or lost opportunities, even if advised of the possibility.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless DapUp Corp. and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents (including the Founders in their capacity as officers of DapUp Corp.) from any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms, use or misuse of the App, or violation of any law or rights of a third party.
We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, without notice, if you violate these Terms, your behavior presents risk or legal exposure, or as required by applicable law. You may also delete your account at any time via the App settings.
All disputes arising out of these Terms shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). Arbitration shall be conducted in New York, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. You waive your right to a jury trial and any class action proceeding.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles.
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via the App or by email. Continued use of the App after such updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
