The Blacklight Group LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) built the Dorpamine mobile app to help users set and achieve short-term goals while fostering accountability through small support groups (“Dorps”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

a. User-Provided Information

  • Name, email address, and optional profile details
  • Content you create (e.g., goals, posts, comments, journal entries)
  • Photos or videos you upload voluntarily
  • Optional location for better user experience

b. Automatically Collected Information

  • Device identifiers (e.g., IP address, device ID)
  • Usage data (screens visited, actions taken)
  • Crash reports and performance logs

c. Ad-Related Information

To support our app through advertising, we may use third-party ad networks (such as Google AdMob or Meta Audience Network) which may collect:

  • Advertising ID (e.g., Apple IDFA, Google AAID)
  • Device information (make, model, OS version)
  • App interaction data to show relevant ads

These third parties may use cookies or similar tracking technologies to personalize ads.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Operate core app features (goal tracking, posts, Dorps)
  • Provide AI-assisted feedback and insights related to your goals
  • Display personalized or non-personalized ads
  • Monitor and improve app performance
  • Communicate updates or respond to support requests

3. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Usage

Dorpamine may use artificial intelligence (AI) features to provide supportive feedback, insights, and suggestions related to your goals and activity within the app.

  • AI features are assistive only and are designed to support—not replace—user decision-making
  • AI interactions are user-initiated and based on content you choose to provide
  • AI-generated responses are not shared publicly unless you choose to share them
  • We do not use AI to make automated decisions that significantly affect users

Where applicable, AI processing may occur on-device or through secure systems designed to protect your data.

4. Data Encryption and Security

  • Sensitive user content, such as goals and messages, may be encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Encryption is designed so that your private content is not readable by unauthorized parties
  • We use secure APIs, authentication controls, and access restrictions to protect your information

While no system is 100% secure, we continuously work to safeguard your data using industry-standard practices.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. However, we may share limited data with:

  • Ad networks for ad personalization
  • Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics for Firebase)
  • Service providers who assist in app infrastructure or support

We may also disclose information if legally required.

6. User Choices and Controls

  • Disable ad tracking via your device settings (e.g., “Limit Ad Tracking” or “Opt Out of Ads Personalization”)
  • Manage what information you share via your profile settings
  • Request access, correction, or deletion of your personal data

To make any requests, email support@dorpamine.com.

7. Data Retention

We retain your information only as long as necessary to:

  • Provide app functionality
  • Comply with legal obligations
  • Resolve disputes and enforce agreements

You may request deletion of your data at any time.

8. Children’s Privacy

Dorpamine is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If we learn we’ve collected data from a child under 13, we’ll delete it immediately.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in app features, including AI or security updates, or to comply with legal requirements. Updates will be posted in the app or on our website with an updated effective date.
