1. Information we collect

Account and profile information. When you register, we collect your email address, password (handled by our authentication provider), name or display name, mobile number and selected Kerala district. We receive account and authentication identifiers needed to operate your account. We do not store your password as ordinary profile text.

Registration location. During registration, the app requests location permission and obtains a one-time, high-accuracy device location. With the registration-location consent recorded in the signup data, latitude, longitude, accuracy and capture time are stored as registration evidence. This is not continuous or background location tracking. Your district may also be stored in your profile and used as your marketplace location.

Listings and photos. If you create or edit a listing, we collect the listing details you provide, such as title, description, category, condition, price and district/location, together with photos you choose to upload. Listing images are stored in our listing-image storage and may be publicly accessible so other users can view listings.

Messages and marketplace activity. We process conversations and messages between buyers and sellers, saved-listing records, listing views and related timestamps so marketplace features can work.

Reports and safety records. If a user reports a listing, account or conversation, we process the report details and related identifiers so administrators can review and address abuse, fraud or policy violations.

Boost purchases. If you purchase a listing-visibility Boost, the app processes the selected product, listing and purchase information. Our server verifies the purchase with Google Play. We retain purchase verification and transaction records, including a hash of the Google Play purchase token, purchase status and related Boost grant/event information. The raw purchase token is used for verification and is not stored as the purchase-token record.

Technical and session information. The app and service process authentication/session tokens and information included in requests that are necessary to sign you in, maintain sessions, communicate with the service and protect accounts. We do not intentionally collect contacts, call logs, SMS, microphone or camera data through the app based on the Android manifest and dependencies reviewed for this policy.

2. How we use information

Verify Google Play Boost purchases, activate eligible Boosts, prevent duplicate or fraudulent transactions and maintain purchase records.
Maintain, secure, troubleshoot and improve the service.

3. What other users can see

Resell is a peer-to-peer marketplace. Listing details and listing photos are intended to be visible to other users. Public seller information used with listings and conversations can include your display name and profile photo/avatar. Do not include personal contact details or other sensitive information in a listing or message unless you are comfortable sharing it with its recipient or marketplace audience.

Your precise registration coordinates and registration-location evidence are not part of the public seller profile. They are restricted to trusted server-side administrative access and are not displayed as a public location tracker.

4. How we share information

We share information only as needed to provide and protect Resell:

With other users: listing content, listing photos and limited public seller profile information; messages with the participants in the relevant conversation.
With Supabase: our backend provider for authentication, database, file storage and realtime messaging infrastructure.
With Google Play: purchase details and the purchase token as needed to verify and manage in-app Boost purchases through Google Play Billing and the Google Play Developer API.
With authorised administrators: information needed to moderate listings, investigate reports, protect users, administer the service and handle account-deletion requests.
For legal and safety reasons: where disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to protect users, the public, our rights or the security of the service.

We do not sell personal information. We do not use the reviewed app code to serve third-party advertising or to build advertising profiles.

5. Storage and security

Account, profile, marketplace, message, report, registration-location and Boost records are stored or processed using our Supabase backend. Listing images are stored in the Resell listing-images storage bucket. Authentication credentials and service secrets are handled by the relevant authentication and server systems. We use access controls and server-side checks intended to restrict private information and administrative operations. No internet service can guarantee absolute security. You should use a strong, unique password and keep your sign-in credentials confidential.

6. Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain marketplace functionality, resolve disputes and reports, enforce our rules, meet legal obligations and protect the service. Retention periods can differ by information type. We do not state a fixed deletion period where one has not been established.

When you request account deletion, the deletion process is designed to remove your account/profile, your listings and associated listing photos, saved-listing records and registration-location data; messages may be anonymised or redacted, while conversations and records needed for moderation or other legitimate purposes may be retained in a limited form. Historical reports and Boost purchase, grant and audit records may be retained with personal identifiers removed or set to null where applicable. Deletion may require additional time if storage or authentication cleanup needs retrying.

7. Your choices and account deletion

You can choose what listing information and photos to publish and can stop using the app at any time. Location permission can be managed in your Android device settings; registration requires the location evidence described above. You can request deletion from the account-deletion option in the Resell app. The app may ask you to confirm the request and re-enter your current password. Follow the in-app status and retry instructions if deletion cannot be completed immediately.

Account deletion does not necessarily erase records that must be retained for legal, security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution or transaction-record purposes; retained records are limited and de-identified where the system supports it. You may also view our Account Deletion instructions or contact the app publisher using the developer contact details shown on the Resell Google Play listing for privacy questions or requests.

8. Children

Resell is a general marketplace service and is not designed for children under 13. We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact the app publisher using the developer contact details on the Google Play listing so the matter can be reviewed.

9. Third-party services

Resell relies on Supabase for backend infrastructure and Google Play services for app distribution and Boost purchase processing. Those providers process information under their own terms and privacy policies. Your use of Google Play is also subject to Google's applicable terms and privacy information.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the app, our data practices or applicable requirements change. The revised policy will be published at this page with an updated date. Please review it periodically.

11. Contact

For questions, concerns or privacy requests, contact the Resell app publisher through the developer contact information displayed on the Resell listing in Google Play or email contact.resellapp@gmail.com.

This policy describes the Resell app implementation reviewed for publication. The publisher should keep it accurate as app features, providers and data practices change.
