1. What Information Do We Collect?

Personal Information You Disclose to Us

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you:

• Submit inquiries or contact forms
• Communicate with us by email or other channels
• Register for updates, events, or informational communications

The personal information we collect may include:

• Name
• Business email address

The personal information we collect generally relates to business representatives acting on behalf of organizations, rather than individuals acting in a personal or consumer capacity.

All personal information you provide must be accurate, complete, and kept up to date.

Sensitive Information

We do not knowingly collect or process sensitive personal information, including data revealing racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, genetic data, biometric data, health information, or information concerning a person's sex life or sexual orientation.

Information Automatically Collected

When you visit or interact with the Services, we may automatically collect certain technical information that does not directly identify you, including:

• IP address
• Browser type and device characteristics
• Operating system
• Language preferences
• Referring URLs
• Approximate location (country or region)
• Information about how and when you use the Services

This information is used to maintain the security and operation of the Services and for internal analytics and reporting purposes.

2. How Do We Use Your Information?

We use personal information for the following purposes:

• To operate, maintain, and improve the Services
• For internal research and development
• To respond to inquiries and communicate with you regarding our services
• To comply with legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations
• To protect the security, safety, and integrity of the Services
• To monitor and prevent fraud, misuse, or unauthorized access
• To fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it

We process personal information only when we have a valid legal basis, including legitimate business interests, contractual necessity, compliance with legal obligations, or consent where required by law.

3. When and With Whom Do We Share Your Personal Information?

We may share personal information in the following circumstances:

• Service Providers: With vendors or service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as hosting, analytics, or communications services
• Business Partners: With partners (such as cloud or marketplace providers) where necessary to support business transactions or service delivery
• Affiliates: With affiliated entities, subject to this Privacy Policy
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets
• Legal Compliance: Where required to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, or lawful government requests
• Others: We may disclose personal information to third parties when explicitly requested by or consented to by you, or for the purposes for which you disclosed the personal information to us as indicated at the time and point of the disclosure (or as was obvious at the time and point of disclosure).

While we do not sell personal information in exchange for monetary consideration, we do disclose personal information for other benefits that could be deemed a "sale" under various data protection laws because it is sometimes broadly defined to include activities such as allowing third parties to receive certain information, such as cookies, IP address, and/or browsing behavior.

4. Do We Use Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies?

We want to process as little personal information as possible when you use our website. That's why we've chosen Fathom Analytics for our website analytics, which does not use cookies and complies with the GDPR, ePrivacy (including PECR), COPPA and CCPA. Using this privacy-friendly website analytics software, your IP address is only briefly processed, and we (running this website) have no way of identifying you. As per the CCPA, your personal information is de-identified. You can read more about this on the Fathom Analytics website.

The purpose of us using this software is to understand our website traffic in the most privacy-friendly way possible so that we can continually improve our website and business. The lawful basis as per the GDPR is "Article 6(1)(f); where our legitimate interests are to improve our website and business continually." As per the explanation, no personal data is stored over time.

5. Is Your Information Transferred Internationally?

Our operations and service providers may process personal information in Ireland, the United States, or other jurisdictions where we or our partners operate.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, and your personal information is transferred outside those regions, we implement appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the use of Standard Contractual Clauses where required.

6. How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

When personal information is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymize it, or, if deletion is not immediately possible (for example, in backup systems), securely store it until deletion is feasible.

7. How We Protect Personal Information

We have implemented commercially reasonable measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Despite these efforts to store personal information in a secure environment, we cannot guarantee the security of personal information during its transmission or its storage on our systems.

8. Do We Collect Information From Minors?

The Services are intended for business and governmental users and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 18. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

9. What Are Your Privacy Rights?

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to:

• Access your personal information
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• Request deletion of your personal information
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

Requests may be submitted to legal@dapple.co. We will respond to verified requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.

You will not be discriminated against in any way by virtue of your exercise of the rights listed in this Privacy Policy. However, should you withdraw your consent or object to processing of your personal information, or if you choose not to provide certain personal information, we may be unable to provide some, or all, of our Services to you.

Only you or an authorized agent that you authorize to act on your behalf may make a request related to your personal information. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests, and if we cannot verify your identity, we may request additional information from you. If you are an authorized agent making certain requests on behalf of another person, we will also need to verify your identity, which may require proof of your written authorization or evidence of power of attorney. We endeavor to respond to requests within the time period required by applicable law. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your requests unless they are excessive or repetitive. If we determine that a request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request. We may deny certain requests, or only fulfill some in part, as permitted or required by law. If you are not satisfied with the resolution of your request and you are afforded a right to appeal such decision, you will be notified of our appeal process in our response to your request.

10. California Residents

California Shine the Light: Under California Civil Code Section 1798.83, individual customers who reside in California and who have an existing business relationship with us may request information about our disclosure of certain categories of personal information to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes, if any. To make such a request, please contact us at legal@dapple.co. Please be aware that not all information sharing is covered by these California privacy rights requirements and only information on covered sharing will be included in our response. This request may be made no more than once per calendar year.

We are not responsible for the practices employed by any websites or services linked to or from our Services, including the information or content contained within them. We encourage you to investigate and ask questions before disclosing personal information to third parties, since any personal information disclosed will be handled in accordance with the applicable third party's privacy policy.
