By creating a venue account and using the Service, you consent to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. Consent may be withdrawn by closing your venue account, subject to legal and operational requirements.

6. Venue Account Access & Responsibility

Venue accounts may be accessed by multiple authorised staff members. Venues are responsible for managing access credentials, and all actions taken under a venue account are deemed authorised by the venue.

7. Public Visibility of Venue Content

Content submitted by venues is publicly visible to patrons using the HopSpot app and may be viewed, shared, or interacted with by users.

8. Venue Compliance & Accuracy

Venues are responsible for ensuring submitted content is accurate and complies with applicable laws, including advertising and liquor regulations. HopSpot does not verify content for legal compliance.

9. Analytics & Aggregated Data

Analytics are generated from aggregated and anonymised data. Individual patrons are never identifiable to venues.

10. Patron Data Ownership

Patron personal data belongs to the patron and/or HopSpot. Venues receive aggregated insights only and do not have access to raw personal data.

Information may be shared with trusted service providers or where required by law. HopSpot does not sell personal information.

12. Third-Party Services

HopSpot may link to third-party services. HopSpot is not responsible for their privacy practices.

13. Content Moderation

HopSpot may review or remove content that violates laws or platform rules. Removed content may be retained temporarily for legal or moderation purposes.

14. Account Deletion & Venue Visibility

Deleting your venue account removes access to the dashboard and deletes account credentials. Your venue’s public listing may remain visible to patrons. To fully remove your venue from the app, you must submit a written request to privacy@hopspot.app.
