Submit an application — your full name, date of birth, email address, phone number, and details about the property you are applying for (address, move-in date, number of bedrooms and bathrooms).

Contact us — any information you include in messages sent through our contact form or email.

We also automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our website, including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and timestamps. This is collected through standard web analytics tools.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

With your co-signer — necessary personal details are shared with the qualified co-signer who will be listed on your application, solely for the purpose of fulfilling the service.
With landlords or lenders — information included in your official offer letter as needed to complete your application.
With service providers — trusted third-party vendors who assist in operating our platform (e.g., payment processors, cloud hosting, email delivery). These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data.
For legal compliance — if required by law, court order, or governmental authority.
Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. If you close your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within 90 days, unless we are required to retain it for legal, regulatory, or fraud prevention purposes.

Application data is retained for a minimum of 12 months to comply with recordkeeping obligations, after which it is securely deleted.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit (TLS/SSL), encrypted storage of sensitive data, and restricted internal access on a need-to-know basis. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If we become aware of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.

6. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to maintain your login session, remember your preferences, and analyse how our website is used. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Disabling cookies may limit some functionality of the website.
