Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 27, 2026

TL;DR: We collect only what we need to provide the service, we never sell your data, and you have full control over your information at any time.

We do not use your data to train AI models, nor do we sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

We share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

Service Providers: Trusted vendors who help us operate (e.g., cloud hosting, payment processing, email delivery). They are bound by data-processing agreements.
Legal Requirements: If required by law, court order, or to protect our legal rights.
Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may transfer to the new entity, which will be bound by this policy.
With Your Consent: Any other sharing will only occur with your explicit permission.

Your public digital card (the page others see when you share your QR code or link) is visible to anyone with the link. You can set your card to private in your dashboard at any time.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymise your data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or regulatory purposes (e.g., payment records for up to 7 years).

7. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including:

TLS/HTTPS encryption for all data in transit
AES-256 encryption for sensitive data at rest
Regular security audits and penetration testing
Strict access controls and two-factor authentication for our team

No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you become aware of any security vulnerability, please contact us immediately at security@dvc.co.in.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience. For full details on the cookies we use and how to manage them, please see our Cookie Policy.
