Dealiqa is a classifieds marketplace app that helps people buy and sell items and services locally. This policy explains, in plain terms, what information we collect when you use the app, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
§1Scope & who we are
This policy applies to the Dealiqa mobile app, its website at dealiqa.com, and its companion admin dashboard (together, "Dealiqa", "we", "us"). It covers every account holder, buyer, and seller using the app to browse, list, message, or transact. Dealiqa was previously called DailySell; only the name has changed.
It does not cover third-party websites or services you may reach through links inside the app, or the practices of other users you communicate with — please review their own privacy practices separately.
§2Information we collect
Account information
To create an account you provide a phone number, which we verify with a one-time passcode. You may optionally add your name, an email address, a profile photo, and your city. If you sign in with Google, we receive your name and email from Google's sign-in flow.
Listings you create
When you post an item or service for sale, we store the title, description, price, category, condition, and any photos you upload, along with the location you choose to attach to the listing (coordinates, city, state, and country).
Location
If you enable location access, we use your device's coordinates to show listings near you and to power the "nearby" search feature. Location access is optional and can be turned off in your device settings at any time — the app remains usable without it, with reduced ability to sort listings by distance.
Messages & chat
When you message a buyer or seller about a listing, we store the conversation — including text, offer amounts, and any photo or file attachments you send — so both participants can retrieve their chat history.
Photos
Listing photos, profile photos, and chat attachments you choose to upload are stored with our image hosting provider (see §4) and linked to your account or listing.
Device & usage information
We collect a push-notification token from your device (so we can alert you about new messages and offers), basic usage signals such as listing view counts, and standard technical data your device sends with every request (IP address, app version, general device type) for security and troubleshooting.
§3How we use it
- Operate the marketplace — show your listings to nearby buyers, connect you with sellers, and keep your chat history available across devices.
- Verify your identity — confirm your phone number via one-time passcode so listings and messages can be traced to a real account, which helps deter fraud.
- Send notifications — alert you to new messages, offers, and account activity through push notifications.
- Keep the platform safe — investigate reported listings or users, enforce our content rules, and prevent abuse.
- Improve the app — understand which features are used so we can fix problems and prioritize improvements.
§5Storage & security
All traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS). Passwords are never stored in plain text — they are hashed before being saved. Access to production systems is restricted to the operator of the service.
No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable, industry-standard measures to protect your information against unauthorized access.
§6Data retention
We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. Listings are automatically archived after a period of inactivity. If you delete your account, we remove your personal information within a reasonable period, except where we are required to retain limited records for legal, security, or fraud-prevention purposes.
§7Your rights & choices
- Access & correction — you can view and edit your profile information directly in the app at any time.
- Location — you can disable location permissions in your device settings; the app will continue to work without it.
- Notifications — you can disable push notifications in your device settings.
Delete your account and data
To request deletion of your Dealiqa account, send an email to sayyedhussain9044@gmail.com from the email address or phone number associated with your account, with the subject line "Delete my account". We verify the request came from the account owner and process it within 30 days.
What happens to your data:
- Deleted immediately: your profile information (name, email, profile photo, city), your active listings, and your saved favorites.
- Deleted within 30 days: your chat messages and any message attachments.
- Retained up to 12 months, then deleted: minimal account-activity records (such as login timestamps and listing history) kept only where needed to investigate fraud, abuse, or policy violations, or to meet a legal obligation.
§8Children's privacy
Dealiqa is intended for users aged 18 and over, since listings can involve in-person meetups and payment arrangements between strangers. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has created an account, please contact us so we can remove it.
§9Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the app evolves. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above and, where appropriate, notify you within the app.
