1. Purpose
DaggaSpot helps users locate nearby, legally operating cannabis spots in South Africa. We respect your privacy and collect only the minimal data required for the site to function safely and effectively.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Public Users
- Location data: Your browser’s location may be temporarily read to show nearby spots. We do not store, log, or retain any user-location data.
- Device and browser information: We receive anonymized analytics (e.g., browser type, screen size, approximate region) to understand traffic patterns. All analytics are processed in aggregate form with no identifiers such as IP addresses or device fingerprints.
2.2 Spot Listings
Spots voluntarily submit information to appear publicly on the map, which may include: spot name, description, images, contact details (phone, email, address), social media links, membership fee and signup instructions, and geographic location (lat/long). All information shown is self-provided by the spot and can be updated or deleted on request.
3. How We Use Information
- Display spot listings publicly to visitors
- Help users locate spots near them
- Provide anonymized engagement analytics (e.g., total page views, link clicks)
No personal user data is stored or analyzed beyond these purposes.
4. Analytics and Aggregated Data
We collect anonymous engagement metrics such as total page views and total clicks on a spot’s social media links. These are aggregated and shared only with the relevant spot as summary statistics (e.g., “150 views this month”). No individual user or device data is visible to any spot.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share any user or spot information with outside parties. Access to data is limited to our hosting and analytics infrastructure providers (e.g., Fly.io, Neon.tech) and authorized DaggaSpot personnel who maintain the system. All partners operate under confidentiality and data-protection obligations.
6. Cookies and Tracking
DaggaSpot uses only essential cookies for session functionality. We do not employ advertising, cross-site, or third-party tracking cookies.
7. Security
All communication is encrypted using HTTPS. We maintain technical and organizational safeguards to protect data against loss, misuse, or unauthorized access.
8. User and Spot Rights
Under POPIA, you may request confirmation of any personal data we hold, ask for correction or deletion of inaccurate or outdated data, and withdraw consent for data processing (where applicable). To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below.
