Privacy Policy

What we collect

• Account details: mobile number, name, and if you sign in with Google or Facebook, your account id, name, email and profile photo.
• What you post: listings, photos, messages, offers, reviews and reports.
• Technical data: device and browser type, approximate location from your IP address, and pages you use, to keep Visvash secure and working.
• Payments are handled by PayHere. We receive the payment result and method type, never your full card number.

How we use it

• To run your account, show your listings, deliver chats and notifications, process payments, prevent fraud and spam, and improve Visvash.
• Your mobile number is shown to buyers only on ads where you tick “Show my phone number” (it appears when a buyer taps Call or WhatsApp). Untick it to get chat messages only.

Who we share it with

• Service providers that run Visvash for us: Railway (hosting and database), Notify.lk (SMS codes), PayHere (payments), Google and Facebook (if you choose to sign in with them).
• Authorities, when Sri Lankan law requires it or to prevent fraud or harm. We do not sell your personal data.

Your rights

• Under the Personal Data Protection Act No. 9 of 2022 you can ask to see, correct or delete your data, and withdraw consent. Email us and we will reply within 21 days.
• You can edit your profile and delete listings any time from My account.

Keeping data

We keep account data while your account is open. Chats and reports may be kept for up to 2 years after deletion to handle disputes and fraud, and payment records as long as tax law requires.
