Dunyo — People Operations and Project Management for Growing Teams
Effective Date: October 5, 2026
Last Updated: October 5, 2026
1. Introduction
Dunyo, Inc. ("Dunyo," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals who use our platform at dunyo.app (the "Service"). Dunyo is a workspace that brings people operations and project management together, helping growing teams organize their people, plan and track their work, and support career growth. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it.
This Policy applies to:
- Workspace Administrators and Members who use the Service directly — including managers, people and HR teams, and other employees;
- Individuals whose personal data is entered into the Service by a customer organization (such as employees whose org structure, absence, or career data is managed through Dunyo).
If you are an employee whose data has been entered into Dunyo by your employer, your employer is the data controller for your data. Please contact your employer for questions about how your data is handled within the Service.
2. Data Controller and Contact
For personal data relating to Workspace Administrators and Members who directly use the Service, Dunyo, Inc. is the data controller:
Dunyo, Inc. Email: [email protected] Address: 651 N Broad St, Suite 201, Middletown, DE 19709 Website: https://dunyo.app
For personal data relating to employees or other individuals entered into the Service by a customer organization, that customer organization is the data controller. Dunyo acts as a data processor on their behalf, as governed by our Data Processing Addendum.
EU Representative: Dunyo has not yet designated an EU representative under Article 27 GDPR. If you are an EEA resident with questions or requests regarding your personal data, please contact us directly at [email protected].
