Last Updated: April 25, 2025
Version: 1.1
DLIA ("we", "us", "our") operates the DLIA mobile application (the "App") and the website at dlia.app (collectively, the "Platform"). DLIA is a peer-to-peer marketplace that enables users to list and purchase unused, non-refundable bookings including flight tickets, hotel reservations, event tickets, and car rentals.
We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, your rights over your data, and how to contact us.
By creating an account or continuing to use our services, you confirm that you have read and understood this policy.

- First name and last name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Password stored as a one-way cryptographic hash

We store your authentication method locally on your device to manage your session correctly.

To become a seller on DLIA, identity verification is required. As part of this process, we collect:
- Government-issued photo ID, such as a passport, national identity card, or driver's licence
- Verification status, including pending, approved, or rejected
This information is processed and reviewed by the DLIA team. Your photo ID is treated as sensitive personal data and is subject to strict access controls.

When you list a booking or make a purchase, we collect:
- Booking details, including type, category, subcategory, price, quantity, and description
- Listing images you upload
- Bid amounts you submit
- Transaction history, including purchases, sales, and confirmation status
1.5 Location Data
With your permission, we collect your approximate or precise location to show you nearby listings and provide location-based features. Location access is requested only when the App is in use. We do not track your location in the background.
1.6 Device and Technical Data
We automatically collect:
- Device type, model, and operating system
- App version
- IP address
- Crash logs and diagnostic information
- Session identifiers and authentication tokens
1.7 Push Notification Data
We use OneSignal to deliver push notifications to your device. When you grant notification permission, OneSignal assigns a unique push notification token to your device. This token is stored on OneSignal's servers, used to deliver transactional and promotional notifications from DLIA, and associated with your DLIA account.
You can revoke notification permissions at any time in your device settings or via Settings and notification preferences in the App.
1.8 Camera and Media Data
We request access to your device's camera and media library to allow you to:
- Upload listing images
- Upload your photo ID for KYC verification
We do not access your camera or media in the background and do not store raw camera data beyond what you explicitly upload.
1.9 Payment Data
Payments are processed through Stripe. When you make or receive a payment, Stripe collects and processes card details, billing information, transaction amount, and related metadata. We receive only tokenized payment references and transaction outcomes from Stripe.
Stripe's privacy policy governs their handling of payment data: https://stripe.com/gb/privacy
1.10 Messaging Data
When you communicate with other users via the in-app messaging feature, we store the content of those messages on our servers. This is necessary to facilitate the conversation and may be reviewed in the event of a dispute or complaint.
1.11 Cookies and Tracking
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies, including:
- Essential cookies required for the site to function
- Analytics cookies used to understand how users interact with the site
- Preference cookies used to remember your settings
You can manage cookie preferences via the cookie banner on our website. Our App uses local device storage rather than browser cookies for session management.
