Short version: we don't know who you are. No accounts, no tracking, no cookies. The only data we store is what you choose to pin — and that's anonymous.
Who we are
indiahousing.rent is a community rent transparency platform for India. We are not a broker, agent, or housing platform. We do not facilitate rentals or collect fees.
What we collect
When you add a pin, we store:
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Latitude and longitude | To place your pin on the map |
| Rent amount | Core data of the platform |
| BHK type, furnishing | To help searchers filter |
| Optional note (max 150 chars) | Context you choose to share |
| Photo or video (if uploaded) | Stored in our media bucket, publicly viewable |
| Timestamp | To show recency and compute verification age |
We do not collect: your name, phone number, email, IP address, device ID, or any information that can identify you personally.
No accounts, no login
The platform is fully anonymous. You do not create an account. We cannot trace any pin back to the person who submitted it.
Cookies and tracking
We do not use cookies, analytics scripts, advertising pixels, or any third-party tracking technology. We do not track your behaviour on the platform.
Media uploads
Videos and photos you upload are stored in a Supabase storage bucket and served publicly. Anyone who views a pin can see the media. Do not upload content that contains your face, name, address, or any personally identifying information.
Third-party services
- Supabase — database and file storage (supabase.com)
- Leaflet / OpenStreetMap — map tiles (no account required)
- Mapbox — search geocoding (if configured)
- Google Fonts — Plus Jakarta Sans typeface
These services may log standard server access data (IP address, request metadata) as part of their normal operation. We do not share any pin data with these services beyond what is necessary to display the map.
Data retention
Pins remain on the platform indefinitely unless reported and found to violate our terms, at which point they are hidden or deleted. There is no automatic expiry.
Your rights
Because submissions are anonymous, we are unable to identify which pin belongs to you. If you have a specific concern about a pin you submitted, contact us and we will do our best to assist.
Children
This platform is not intended for users under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy occasionally. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance.
