Privacy Policy
Last updated: 25 August 2026
Plynr Pty Ltd (“Plynr”, “we”, “us” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store and protect personal information when you use the Plynr mobile application, our website, and related products and services (together, the “Services”).
Plynr is a social planning platform that helps people organise plans, coordinate availability, invite friends, communicate about plans, manage calendars and keep memories from the things they do together.
Australian privacy law
Plynr seeks to handle personal information consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), whether or not every aspect of that Act applies to Plynr at a particular time. Where the Privacy Act or another applicable privacy law applies, we will comply with its requirements.
1. Information we collect
The information we collect depends on how you use Plynr and the permissions you choose to give us.
Account and profile information
When you create or use a Plynr account, we may collect information such as your:
name;
email address;
mobile phone number;
username or handle;
profile photo;
authentication information and account identifiers; and
account preferences and settings.
If you sign in using a third-party sign-in provider, such as Apple or Google, we may receive information that you authorise that provider to share with us, such as your name, email address and account identifier.
Contacts and invitation information
If you choose to give Plynr access to your contacts, we may access information such as names, phone numbers and email addresses for purposes including helping you find people you know, add friends and invite people to plans.
You may also provide information about other people directly, for example when inviting someone by phone number or email address, adding a guest or +1, or creating a plan involving another person.
We only use contact information for purposes connected with providing and improving the relevant Plynr features and do not sell contact information.
Contacts access is optional. Where technically supported, we limit contact processing to the information needed to match or invite the people you select. Granting contacts access does not make your address book visible to other Plynr users.
Plans, events and social content
We collect information you create, submit, send, upload or interact with through Plynr. This may include:
Plyn titles and descriptions;
dates and times;
locations;
guest lists and invitations;
RSVPs and attendance information;
polls and poll responses;
scheduling preferences and availability;
answers to questions created by hosts;
messages and chats;
comments and reactions;
reminders and notifications;
photographs and other memories;
information about recurring plans; and
other content you choose to provide.
Some of this information may contain personal information about you or other people.
Some optional fields—such as answers about dietary, accessibility or other personal requirements—may reveal sensitive information. Please only provide sensitive information where it is relevant to a Plyn. Custom RSVP answers are visible only to the Host and any authorised Co-hosts, not to ordinary Guests.
Calendar and connected-service information
If you choose to connect a calendar or other third-party service to Plynr, we may access and process information authorised by you and necessary to provide the relevant integration.
Depending on the integration and permissions you select, this may include:
your connected account identifier;
calendars you choose to connect;
calendar availability or free/busy information;
event information needed to identify scheduling conflicts;
information required to create or sync Plynr events with a connected calendar; and
authorisation tokens required to maintain the connection.
Plynr uses calendar information to provide features such as checking availability, helping users coordinate dates and syncing Plynr plans with connected calendars.
External calendar information is private by default. External Google or Microsoft calendar events are not displayed to a Shared Calendar partner or to other Plynr users. If you opt in to Availability Sharing, Plynr's scheduling system may use free/busy information to rank suggested times, but another participant is not shown your calendar, event titles or named free/busy status through that feature.
We do not sell calendar data or use Google Workspace user data for personalised advertising, advertising profiles or training general-purpose artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.
You can disconnect a calendar integration through Plynr or through the relevant third-party provider, where supported.
2. Google API data
Where Plynr accesses information through Google APIs, our use of that information is limited to providing and improving the user-facing Plynr features for which access was granted.
Plynr's use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
We do not sell Google user data, use it for personalised or interest-based advertising, or use Google Workspace user data to train or improve general-purpose artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.
Access by Plynr personnel to Google user data is limited to circumstances where it is reasonably necessary to provide user-requested support with appropriate permission, protect the security or integrity of the Services, comply with applicable law, or otherwise as permitted by Google's applicable policies.
3. Photos and media
If you choose to upload photos or other media to Plynr, we collect and store the content you select.
We do not access your full photo library simply because you use Plynr. Access depends on the permissions you grant through your device.
Photos and memories uploaded to a Plyn are visible to the authorised participants who have access to that Plyn or its Memories. They are not publicly indexed by Plynr. Removing someone from a Plyn may remove their future access in accordance with the applicable feature rules, but it cannot undo copies another person has already downloaded, captured or shared outside Plynr.
4. Device, technical and usage information
When you access Plynr, we may automatically collect technical information such as:
IP address;
device and operating-system information;
browser type;
app version;
device or installation identifiers;
push-notification tokens;
diagnostic and crash information;
security logs;
dates and times of access; and
information about how features of the Services are used.
We use this information to operate, secure, troubleshoot, understand and improve Plynr.
5. Website and waitlist information
If you join the Plynr waitlist, contact us or submit information through our website, we may collect your name, email address and any information you choose to provide.
We may use this information to administer the waitlist, respond to you and, where permitted, send Plynr product, launch and service updates.
You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe facility provided in the communication or contacting us at hello@plynr.co. We may still send service-related or transactional communications, such as invitations, account notices, security alerts and important updates about Plyns you participate in.
We may use cookies and similar technologies on our website to operate and secure the website, remember preferences, understand how visitors use it, measure the effectiveness of campaigns and improve our Services. You may be able to control cookies through your browser or device settings, although disabling them may affect website functionality. Where required, we will provide appropriate choices or obtain consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
6. How we collect information
We may collect personal information:
directly from you;
automatically when you use the Services;
from another Plynr user, such as when someone invites you to a Plyn;
from your device where you grant permission;
from services you choose to connect to Plynr; and
from service providers that assist us in operating the Services.
If another user provides information about you, we use that information only for purposes reasonably connected with providing the relevant Plynr functionality and our legitimate operational, safety and legal requirements.
7. How we use personal information
We may use personal information to:
create and manage accounts;
provide and operate Plynr;
create, coordinate and manage Plyns;
show availability and scheduling conflicts;
facilitate invitations, RSVPs and polls;
provide chat and messaging functionality;
sync information with connected calendars;
send reminders, notifications and service messages;
help users find and connect with people they know;
store and display photos and memories;
personalise the user experience;
provide customer support;
investigate bugs and technical problems;
maintain security and prevent fraud, spam and abuse;
understand and improve the Services;
develop new features;
communicate with you about Plynr;
comply with legal obligations; and
establish, exercise or defend legal rights.
Where applicable law requires us to obtain your consent for a particular activity, we will request that consent.
8. How information is shared
With other Plynr users
Plynr is designed to help people plan things together. Information you choose to share may therefore be visible to other users involved in a Plyn, conversation, shared calendar or other social feature.
Plynr applies the following sharing rules by default:
Plyns are not publicly indexed by Plynr. Plyn details are available to the Host, authorised participants and people using a valid invitation link, as applicable to the invitation type.
A Direct Invite link is created for one invitee. A Universal Share Link may be used by multiple people and should be shared carefully. A Host can revoke and replace a Universal Share Link, and removing a direct invitee invalidates that person's Direct Invite link.
Hosts and authorised Co-hosts can see RSVPs and Custom RSVP answers. Custom RSVP answers are not visible to ordinary Guests.
Polls are not anonymous. Poll participants can see who selected each option.
Group Chats and Event Walls are visible to the relevant Plyn participants. “Message Host” is a private channel between the attendee and Host. Direct and Group Messages are visible only to members of those conversations.
Event Host/Co-host private notes and files are not visible to ordinary Guests.
A Shared Calendar is mutual and opt-in. It shows Plynr Plyns under the Shared Calendar rules, but never the owner's external Google or Microsoft calendar events.
A Quick Plyn saved without attendees is Private by default unless the owner expressly chooses to show it in their Shared Calendar. The owner can later change it between Private and Shared Calendar visibility.
Your full date of birth is private and is not displayed on your public-facing profile or to Friends, Plyn participants or a Shared Calendar partner.
Some basic profile information is visible to other users to support social discovery and connections. Do not include information in a profile, Plyn, chat, Wall, poll, photograph or share link that you do not want the relevant audience to see.
With service providers
We may disclose information to trusted companies that help us operate Plynr, such as providers of:
cloud hosting and databases;
authentication;
email, SMS and push notifications;
analytics and crash reporting;
security and fraud prevention;
customer support; and
software infrastructure.
We require service providers to handle information only for appropriate purposes and subject to appropriate privacy and security obligations.
With connected services
If you connect Plynr with a third-party calendar, login provider or other service, we may exchange information with that provider as necessary to perform the action you requested.
Your use of the third-party service is also governed by that provider's own privacy practices and terms.
For legal and safety reasons
We may disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law or a lawful request, protect the rights and safety of Plynr, our users or others, investigate fraud or abuse, or establish or defend legal claims.
Business changes
If Plynr is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring or sale of all or part of its business or assets, personal information may be disclosed as part of that transaction subject to applicable law and appropriate safeguards.
9. We do not sell personal information
Plynr does not sell personal information, contact information or connected calendar data to data brokers or advertisers.
If our business model or data practices materially change, we will update this Privacy Policy and obtain additional consent where required by law.
10. Permissions and choices
Certain Plynr features may request access to information or capabilities controlled by your device, including contacts, calendars, photos and notifications.
You can choose whether to grant many of these permissions and can generally change your permissions later through your device settings or the relevant connected service.
Declining a permission may mean that a feature requiring that permission cannot operate.
11. Data security
We take reasonable technical, organisational and administrative measures designed to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
These measures may include data minimisation, role-based access controls, row-level database security, secure authentication, encryption in transit, restricted administrative access, logging and monitoring, secure invitation tokens, rate limiting, private storage controls and appropriate safeguards used by our infrastructure providers.
No online service or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If we suspect a data breach, we will take reasonable steps to contain and investigate it, assess the likely risk of harm and remediate the issue. Where the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme or another applicable law requires notification, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), or another relevant regulator, as required.
12. Data retention
We retain personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed to provide the Services, fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and meet legitimate security, legal, accounting and operational requirements.
The period for which we retain information depends on its nature and why we hold it. In general:
account and profile information is retained while your account remains active;
Plyn details, RSVPs, polls, messages, photos and memories are retained while needed to provide the relevant Plyn, Past, Memories and communication features, or until deleted through available controls;
connected-calendar access information is retained while the relevant integration remains connected and is revoked or deleted when the integration is disconnected or the account is deleted;
imported calendar information and derived availability data are retained only while needed to provide calendar and scheduling functionality;
contact and invitation information is retained while needed to provide invitations, manage active Plyns, prevent abuse and maintain relevant records;
technical, security and diagnostic information is retained for a limited period appropriate to troubleshooting, security and fraud-prevention purposes;
waitlist and marketing information is retained until you unsubscribe, withdraw consent or the information is no longer required; and
transaction, corporate, dispute and legally required records may be retained for the period required or permitted by applicable law.
If you delete your account, we will ordinarily delete or de-identify personal information associated with your account from our active systems within 30 days, except where particular information must or may be retained for legal, security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution or other legitimate purposes.
Information may remain temporarily in secure backups until those backups are overwritten through our normal backup and disaster-recovery processes. Backup information is access-restricted and is not used for ordinary product purposes.
Content you shared with other users may continue to appear where it forms part of another person's Plyn, message history, photograph, attendance record or other shared record. Where appropriate, we may remove your account identifiers or attribute the content to a deleted account rather than delete information that other participants reasonably rely on.
When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we take reasonable steps to delete it or de-identify it in accordance with applicable law.
13. Deleting your account and withdrawing consent
You may request deletion of your Plynr account and associated personal information through the account-deletion functionality provided within the app or by contacting us.
You may also revoke access to connected accounts or permissions at any time through Plynr, your device settings or the relevant third-party provider.
Revoking a permission will prevent future access where technically applicable but may not automatically delete information previously provided to Plynr. You can request deletion separately.
14. Accessing or correcting your information
You may request access to personal information we hold about you or ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading.
Some information can be viewed or updated directly within Plynr.
For other requests, contact us using the details at the end of this Privacy Policy. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
Depending on applicable law, there may be circumstances in which we are permitted or required to refuse a request. Where required, we will explain the reason.
15. International users and overseas processing
Plynr is based in Australia. We seek to store primary production data in Australia where reasonably practicable. However, some of the service providers that help us operate Plynr may process or store personal information outside Australia.
Overseas recipients may include providers of:
cloud hosting, databases and data storage;
authentication and connected-account services;
calendar integrations;
app development, distribution and update infrastructure;
email, SMS and push notifications;
invitation and link-routing services;
analytics, diagnostics and security services;
customer support and other operational infrastructure; and
telecommunications and communications delivery services.
These overseas recipients are likely to be located in the United States. Information used to deliver an email, SMS, notification or other communication may also be processed in the country where the recipient is located. Additional countries may become relevant if our providers or operations change, and we will update this Privacy Policy where it is practicable and appropriate to identify them.
Before disclosing personal information to an overseas recipient, where Australian Privacy Principle 8 applies, we take reasonable steps appropriate to the circumstances to ensure that the recipient handles the information consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles. These steps may include reviewing privacy and security terms, using contractual data-protection commitments, limiting the information disclosed, selecting Australian hosting locations where available, applying access controls and assessing relevant security practices.
Plynr may remain accountable under Australian privacy law for certain acts or practices of an overseas recipient.
We do not treat your general use of Plynr as blanket consent to overseas disclosure where doing so would remove protections that would otherwise apply under Australian Privacy Principle 8. If we need to rely on informed consent for a particular overseas disclosure, we will explain the practical consequences and seek that consent separately.
If you live in a jurisdiction that gives you additional privacy rights, including rights relating to access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability or withdrawal of consent, you may contact us to exercise those rights where they apply.
16. Children
Plynr is not designed or directed primarily to children.
Users must satisfy the minimum-age requirements contained in our Terms of Use and any additional requirements that apply in their country.
If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child in circumstances where the collection is not permitted, we will take appropriate steps to delete the information.
17. Other people's information
When you provide information about another person through Plynr, such as by inviting them to a plan, adding a guest, syncing contacts or uploading a photograph containing another person, you should only do so where you have an appropriate basis to provide and use that information.
Please respect the privacy of other people when using Plynr.
18. Third-party websites and services
Plynr may contain links to third-party websites, venues, booking platforms or other services.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing them with personal information.
19. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as Plynr evolves or where our legal or regulatory obligations change.
The “Last updated” date at the top of this page identifies the latest version.
Where a change is material, we may provide additional notice through the Services or by another appropriate method.
20. Privacy questions and complaints
If you have a question, request or complaint about privacy or our handling of personal information, please contact:
Privacy Officer
Plynr Pty Ltd
Australia
Email: hello@plynr.co
We will consider privacy complaints and aim to respond within a reasonable period.
If you are not satisfied with our response and Australian privacy law applies to your complaint, you may be entitled to contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
Nothing in this Privacy Policy limits any rights you have under applicable privacy or data-protection laws.
