Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

BrandzBy ("we," "us," or "our") operates a community platform - including this website and our mobile app - that helps local businesses reach more customers and helps customers discover local businesses near them. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

By using our website, app, or contacting us through our social media channels, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

• Business registration details: if you register your business with us, we collect your business name, phone number, email address, area, city, state & country, website, business type, business description, and optional business photo.
• Contact information: if you email us, message us on social media, or fill out a contact form, we collect the information you choose to share, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information such as government ID numbers, financial account details, or precise health data.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To feature registered businesses on our platform, with only the public information you choose to share.
• To communicate with you, for example - responding to inquiries or updating you about your business listing.
• To operate, maintain, and improve our website and app.
• To understand how our platform is used, so we can make it more useful for businesses and customers.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. Business details you submit for a public listing (such as your business name, address, description, and contact details) are shared publicly on our platform by design, since the purpose of registration is to help customers discover your business.

We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, or property of BrandzBy, our users, or the public.

5. Data Retention

We retain business registration and contact information for as long as needed to provide our services. For example, to keep your business listing active or until you ask us to remove it.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the information you share with us. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Rights and Choices

You can ask us to access, correct, update, or delete the information we hold about you or your business at any time by contacting us at info.brandzby@gmail.com. If you'd like your business listing removed from our platform, just let us know.

8. Children's Privacy

Our website and app are not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

9. Third-Party Links

Our website and app may contain links to third-party sites, such as social media platforms or the websites of registered businesses. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties, and we encourage you to review their own privacy policies.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our platform grows. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
