Privacy

Last updated: 14 November 2026

This explains what BeerDrop knows about you and what happens with it. BeerDrop is run by Jasper Aelvoet, Belgium, who is the controller of your data.

What we keep

• Your account: name, username, email address, profile photo, and whether you signed in with Apple or Google.
• Your friends: who you are friends with, open requests, and who you blocked.
• Your beers: who sent what to whom, notes, times, amounts, and the photo or video sent as proof.
• Payments: references to your payments and payouts at Stripe, and the last four characters of your bank account.
• Your phone: a notification token, your language, and your sign-in sessions with the IP address and device type they came from.

What we never see or keep

• Your card number. Card details go straight from your phone to Stripe.
• Your date of birth, home address and full bank account number. You type them in the app when you add a bank account, we pass them to Stripe once, and we do not store them.
• Your location, your contacts or your other photos.

Why we use it

• To run the service you asked for: sending beers, paying out, and showing the photo (contract).
• To prevent fraud and handle reports (legitimate interest).
• To meet legal duties around payments and bookkeeping (legal obligation).
• To send you notifications, if you allowed them (consent; switch them off in your phone's settings).

We do not sell your data, show ads, or track you across other apps.

Who else sees it

• Other people on BeerDrop: your name, username and photo. The person on the other side of a beer also sees the note and the proof.
• Stripe (payments and payouts, identity checks). Stripe is its own controller for that data.
• Amazon Web Services (hosting, in Paris, France).
• Apple, Google and Expo (sign-in and delivering notifications).

How long

• Your account and beers: until you delete your account.
• Payment records at Stripe: as long as the law requires (usually 7 years).
• Reports: up to 2 years after they are closed.

Your rights

You can see and change your details in the app, and delete your account there (You, then Delete my account). That removes your profile, friends, beers and photos. You can also ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, or to object to how we use it: write to contact@beerdrop.app. You can complain to the Belgian Data Protection Authority (gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit.be).

Age

BeerDrop is only for people of 18 and older. We delete accounts of anyone younger.
