What we collect
- Your name and email address, and your password (stored only as a secure hash), or your Google account id if you sign in with Google.
- Your phone number and district, only if you add them.
- What you post: listings, wanted requests, offers, proposals, messages and photos.
Why we use it
Only to run Sathva: to show your posts, let people contact you and keep your account secure. We do not sell your information, show ads, or use tracking or analytics tools.
Who can see what
- Anyone can see your listings, wanted requests and your first name.
- Messages, offers and proposals are visible only to the two people in that conversation.
- Your phone number is shared only with the other person, and only after an offer or proposal is accepted.
- Listing photos are public. Photos in chats and proposals are private and shown only through short-lived links to the two people involved.
- Your email address is never shown to other users.
