1. Who we are

Taply is operated by Digital Space, Udyam registration number UDYAM-HR-03-0082227. In this policy, “Taply”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean Digital Space and the Taply service. For privacy questions, contact us at care@taply.biz.

2. Information we collect

We collect information needed to provide Taply, including:

• Account information: name, email address, phone number, sign-in details, and account preferences.
• Card information: the profile, contact details, business information, services, prices, links, photos, and privacy settings you choose to add to a Taply card.
• Collection information: cards you save to your Taply collection, your choices to save a contact to a device, and card update status.
• Physical-card scanning: when you choose to scan a paper card, Taply may use your device camera or selected photo-library image to read the front and optional back. The image is processed locally in the browser or app for text extraction and is not uploaded to or retained by Taply by default. Only the details you review and explicitly save become part of your private Taply collection.
• Service and technical information: feature use, card views, shares, saves, device/browser details, IP-derived diagnostic information, and security logs.
• Support and transaction information: feedback or messages you send us, and, where paid plans or templates are offered, order, payment-status, and tax records supplied by our payment partners. We do not store full payment-card details.

3. How we use information

We use data to create and maintain accounts and cards; provide sharing links, QR codes, contact-save files, collections, and discovery; process subscriptions and template purchases; measure aggregate card activity; respond to support requests; prevent misuse; and comply with law. We also use it to improve and develop Taply.

Scanner permissions are optional. Taply requests camera access only when you choose “Use camera” in the physical-card scanner. You can instead choose an image from your photo library, deny or revoke camera access, and enter the card details manually. Scanner images are used for the requested text extraction and are discarded when the scan is reset or closed; they are not stored as contact-card images unless a future feature clearly says otherwise.

Product news and offers are optional. We send promotional emails about Taply features, templates, or offers only when you separately choose to receive them. You can switch this off in Account at any time and may also use an unsubscribe link in a marketing email. Your choice does not affect access to Taply.

4. Public cards and your controls

You decide which card fields appear to people with a direct link or QR code, which fields appear in Taply Discover, and whether a card is Public, Unlisted, or Private. A phone number can be visible to a direct recipient without being searchable in Discover. When you add a city, postal or ZIP code, and country, Taply uses the city to show relevant public cards nearby; postal codes are not used to expand a city-wide result. Public cards may be found through Taply Discover and shared by anyone with the link. Unlisted cards can be accessed by people with the link or QR code. Private cards are not intended to be publicly accessible. Please do not add information you do not want a recipient to see or save.

Search-engine listing is a separate, optional choice. Making a card visible in Discover does not automatically submit it to Google or another search engine. If you separately enable “Show my card on Google and other search engines”, Taply may publish a reduced business profile containing your name, role, company, services, city, country, approved website/social links, and—only when you also enable phone visibility in Discover—your phone number. That profile never includes your email, street address, postal code, precise coordinates, private collection information, or direct-share link. Turning the option off removes the profile from Taply’s sitemap and makes it unavailable, although search providers may take time to refresh results or cached snippets they already collected.

When someone saves your card, they may add the fields you allow to their Taply collection and, after their confirmation, to their phone contacts. Card creators see aggregate save totals only; Taply does not show creators the identity of people who saved a card unless we clearly introduce and disclose such a feature in the future.

5. Sharing and service providers

We may share information with providers that help us host Taply, authenticate users, send emails, process payments, prevent fraud, provide analytics, and support customers. They may use data only to provide services to us or as otherwise permitted by law. We may also disclose information when required to protect users, enforce our terms, comply with law, or respond to a valid legal request.

We do not sell or rent personal data. A business transfer, merger, or reorganisation may involve a transfer of relevant data, subject to this policy and applicable law.

6. Retention, security, and international processing

We retain information for as long as needed to operate Taply, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect the service. You can request deletion of your account or personal data through the contact details below; some records may be kept when law requires it. We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.

Our providers may process data in India or other countries. Where data is transferred, we take steps appropriate to the service and applicable law.

7. Your choices and rights

You can edit or delete your cards, control public fields, change Discover and search-engine visibility, export available account data, and manage selected preferences (including product-news emails) in Taply. You may ask us to access, correct, erase, or explain the use of your personal data, or withdraw consent where processing relies on it, by emailing care@taply.biz. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. You may have additional rights under applicable data-protection law.

8. New features, children, and updates

Taply will evolve. If a future feature needs additional personal data or a materially different use of data, we will provide an updated notice and seek consent where required. Taply is not directed to children. Do not create an account or submit another person’s information unless you have the right to do so.

We may update this policy from time to time. The current version and its effective date will always appear on this page. Material changes may also be notified in the app or by email.
