What we collect

When you register, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and city. When you list a business, we additionally collect your business name, address, category, and description. When you make a payment, transaction details are processed by Razorpay — we do not store card details. We also collect standard server logs including IP address and browser type for security purposes.
