Smart Barter ("we," "our," "us") is a peer-to-peer listing and communication platform. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information.
Account Information: Name, email address, phone number, profile photo, and general city/area location.
User Content: Listings, messages, reviews, photos, and profile information you create on the platform.
Usage Data: How you interact with the app, including pages viewed, features used, and device information.
Location Data: General location (city/area) to show relevant local listings. We do not track precise GPS location continuously.
Your display name, general city/area, profile photo, listings, reviews, and trade history are visible to other users. Your email address, exact home address, and phone number are never shown to other users.
Smart Barter stores user-generated content including listings, messages, and profile information to operate the platform. Smart Barter does not maintain financial records, trade value ledgers, or transaction accounting for users. Smart Barter may comply with lawful court orders or legal processes but does not voluntarily provide tax reporting because it is not a barter exchange.
Smart Barter uses third-party services for analytics, advertising (AdMob), push notifications, and payment processing (for Premium subscriptions via App Store and Google Play). These services may collect data as described in their own privacy policies.
Free users see advertisements served through AdMob and Smart Barter's direct advertising platform. Ad networks may use cookies or device identifiers to serve relevant ads. Premium users do not see advertisements.
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your information for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your data is permanently removed after a 7-day grace period. Some data may be retained as required by law.
Smart Barter is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18.
You may access, update, or delete your personal information through the app's settings at any time. You may request a copy of your data by contacting support.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes through the app. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance.
For questions about this Privacy Policy, contact our support team.
