Where data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or UK adequacy decisions to ensure appropriate safeguards.

We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including:
•AES-256-GCM encryption of sensitive personal data (names, emails, phone numbers, addresses) at rest

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
•Access your personal data (Subject Access Request)
•Rectify inaccurate or incomplete data
•Erase your data ("right to be forgotten")
•Restrict processing in certain circumstances
•Data portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
•Object to processing based on legitimate interest
•Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent
To exercise any of these rights, contact privacy@popins.uk. We will respond within 30 days.
We use only essential cookies required for the Service to function:
•Session cookie (next-auth.session-token) — keeps you logged in
•Site auth cookie — for development site access
We do not use advertising, analytics, or tracking cookies. No cookie consent banner is required as we only use strictly necessary cookies.
Our "Request Anything" AI shopping assistant uses a Large Language Model (Anthropic Claude) to interpret free-text shopping requests, suggest items, and estimate prices. The assistant is decision-support only — a human Driver always reviews the basket and physically purchases the items.
No solely-automated decision producing a legal or similarly significant effect is made about you. Pricing estimates from the AI never become the final charge — that is set by the actual till receipt your Driver uploads.
If you object to AI processing of your request, use the standard catalogue instead of the "Request Anything" flow. No personal information beyond the request text + your account ID is passed to Anthropic.
While an active order is assigned to a Driver, the Driver app shares their live location with our servers so customers and admin can see ETA. Location sharing stops automatically when the order reaches DELIVERED or CANCELLED status.
Drivers can review and disable background location at any time in their iOS/Android settings; doing so prevents them from receiving new jobs.
The Service is not intended for children under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. Age-restricted products (alcohol, tobacco, vapes) require Challenge 25 ID verification upon delivery.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email or in-app notification. The "last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
