Dumo Privacy Policy

Introduction

At Dumo we want to be clear and transparent about the information we collect, how we use the information, where we store the data and how it is protected.

Creating a family friendly privacy policy

We want to make sure that children and parents understand how we look after your information and how we use your information.

To do this, we have created a family friendly version of our privacy policy. This means that a young person, or their parent, can read the boxes in purple. This will give them a simple summary of each part of this policy.

In fact, we have even checked the text using an onpne tool to make sure this is readable for children as young as 8 years old.

Simple Summary

What information do we need?

When you join Dumo we need information such as your name, address and when you were born. This helps us make your account. We also keep information when you load money onto Dumo or any time you use the Dumo card. This helps us to show you where you have spent money and keep your money safe. We keep information about how you use the Dumo app so we can make it better. We keep details of any time you talk to us by email, phone or chat.

How do we keep your information safe?

When we store your information, we jumble it up to stop other people from seeing it. We teach our staff about keeping your information safe.
Sometimes we share your information with other people to help us run Dumo. When we do this, we make sure they stick to our rules.

Can you change or delete your information?

You can change your email address or phone number in the Dumo app. If you would pke to change anything else, please talk to our support team who will be able to help.
When you leave Dumo, we need to keep some information for six years. When we don’t need your information any more we will delete it.
