2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you use the service, we may collect the following categories of information:

• Account details such as your name, email address, mobile number, password hash, and verification status.

3. Location Information

Nearest Deal uses location-related information to show nearby listings, improve relevance, and help users create listings connected to a place. We may use your current location, approximate coordinates, selected country, and selected city. Location access can be denied or changed in your device settings, but some app features may not work properly without it.

4. How We Use Information

• To create and manage user accounts.
• To verify users through phone, email, or other authentication methods.
• To publish, display, sort, filter, and manage listings.
• To send saved-alert notifications, service updates, verification messages, and security messages.
• To support payments, entitlements, featured listings, contact access, and other monetized features.
• To moderate content, reduce abuse, detect fraud indicators, and enforce our platform rules.
• To improve product quality, security, search relevance, and performance.

5. How We Share Information

We may share information in the following limited ways:

• With other users when you choose to post listings or when your profile and listing information are shown in the marketplace.
• With service providers that help us operate the platform, such as hosting, database, email, OTP, analytics, push notification, billing, or support providers.
• With legal authorities, regulators, law enforcement, or advisors where we believe disclosure is required or appropriate.
• As part of a merger, restructuring, financing, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar transaction.

We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling customer data for money. However, certain analytics, advertising, and platform operations may still count as sharing under some laws.

6. User Content and Public Information

Information you place into listings, profile fields, shop pages, or suggestions may become visible to other users. Please avoid including information you do not want shared publicly. We may attempt to detect and remove prohibited content, but we cannot guarantee that all content will be screened, blocked, or removed before it appears.

7. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, and maintain business and security records. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and the purpose for which it was collected.

8. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no system, platform, network, or transmission method is completely secure. You use the service and provide information at your own risk.

9. Children

Nearest Deal is not intended for children under the minimum age required by applicable law to use the service in their jurisdiction. If you believe a child has provided information to us in violation of applicable law, contact us and we will review the matter.

10. Your Choices

• You may update certain profile details from inside the app.
• You may disable some device permissions such as location or notifications in your device settings.
• You may request account-related help by contacting notify@nearestdeal.com.

11. International Use

Your information may be processed or stored in countries other than the country where you live. Data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the service after changes become effective means you accept the updated Privacy Policy.
