Privacy Policy
Last updated 4 November 2026
This policy explains what DOPA collects, why, who it is shared with and what you can do about it. DOPA is run by Martín Albornoz Correa, Chile. Contact: dopaapp7@gmail.com.
In short: we collect what is needed to run your account, show your work, deliver your messages and complete your orders. We do not sell your data, we do not show ads, and we do not track you across other apps or websites.
What we collect
- Account: your email address, name, @handle, profile picture, bio, country and any link you add.
- What you post: photos, videos, audio, 3D scans, webpages, captions, tags, comments and journal entries, including persistent Moments. Journal entries and Moments follow the visibility you choose; Moments stay saved until you delete them.
- Messages: what you send in Messages, including photos, videos and files.
- Health (only if you allow it): when you add a workout to a journal day, DOPA reads that workout from Apple Health. A route is stored as a shape without location. Health data is never used for advertising or shared for that purpose, and DOPA never writes to Health.
- Buying and selling: what you bought or sold, the shipping name, address and phone number needed to deliver it, and the PayPal email a seller is paid to.
- Activity in the app: things like which pieces were opened and for how long, so the app can show you what is new and sellers can see interest in their work.
- Device: notification tokens and an app-installation identifier for Android notifications, plus whether you are online so the people you know can see a green dot.
We do not collect your contacts or your browsing history, and we do not track your location in the background.
Places, only when you choose: DOPA stores locations you attach to posts and Journal entries or Moments. These selected map points may be precise and follow the visibility of the content you share. World uses your selected area to find forums. Android requests approximate device location only if you choose Nearby; you can instead search for or select any place on the map.
3D reconstruction: when you start a photo-based 3D build, the selected photographs are sent to DOPA's reconstruction service to create your model.
Why
- To run your account and show your work to the people you choose.
- To deliver messages and notifications.
- To process orders and get them shipped.
- To keep DOPA safe: reviewing reports and removing content that breaks the community guidelines. Posts may be checked by an automated moderation service before a person decides.
- To find and fix problems.
Who it is shared with
Only with the companies that run parts of DOPA for us, and only what each one needs:
- Supabase — database and sign-in.
- Cloudflare — storage and delivery of photos, videos and other media.
- PayPal — payments. We never see your card details.
- DHL and our print partners (Prodigi, Gelato) — the shipping name, address and phone number for an order.
- Apple — delivering notifications.
- Google Firebase Cloud Messaging — delivering Android notifications. Google receives the notification payload, app-installation identifier and technical information needed for delivery. DOPA does not include Firebase Analytics or advertising tracking.
- Anthropic — automated checks of posted content for safety, when enabled.
Everything you post publicly can be seen by other people on DOPA. Private journal entries and messages are only visible to you and the people in the conversation. We may disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect people from harm.
How long we keep it
As long as your account exists. When you delete your account, your profile, posts, journal and messages are deleted. Records of orders are kept as long as tax and consumer law requires.
To enforce account suspensions, we keep private records of safety decisions and protected one-way hashes of previously used sign-in identifiers (email address, phone number or linked sign-in ID). They are not public and are not used for advertising. Active suspension records and these hashes can remain after account deletion to prevent the same suspended identity from returning. When access is restored, the sign-in hashes for that suspension are removed. Write to dopaapp7@gmail.com to appeal a safety decision.
Your choices and rights
- Edit or delete any post, and your whole account, inside the app.
- Turn Health access, notifications and photo access on or off in your device settings.
- Ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it or to delete it, by writing to dopaapp7@gmail.com. We reply within 30 days.
Children
DOPA is not for children. You must be at least 16 to use it. If we learn that an account belongs to someone younger, we delete it.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will say so in the app before it takes effect. The date at the top shows the latest version.
