Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 02, 2026

1. Information We Collect

Personal Information: When you sign up, we collect information like your name, email address, and phone number. For seller verification, we may collect government-issued ID details and other documents required for KYC.

Property Information: When you list a property, we collect details like address, photos, price, and features.

Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you interact with our platform, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited.

2. How We Use Your Information

To Provide and Improve Services: We use your information to operate our platform, facilitate communication between buyers and sellers, and improve user experience.

For Trust & Safety: Your information is crucial for our verification processes, fraud detection, and to maintain a secure environment for all users.

Communication: We may use your contact information to send you platform updates, security alerts, and support messages.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety.

4. Data Security & Communication

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

User-to-user messages on our platform are end-to-end encrypted using the industry-standard AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). This means that Bhumikaa and its employees cannot read the content of your private conversations. Only you and the person you're communicating with can read what is sent.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to customize user experiences, keep you logged in, and analyze platform traffic. You can read more about how we use cookies and how to manage them in our Cookie Policy.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to access, update, or delete your personal information. You can do this from your account settings page.

7. Indian IT Rules 2021 Compliance

In compliance with the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, we have appointed a Grievance Officer. If you have any complaints or concerns regarding the platform, please refer to our Terms of Service for contact details and the redressal process.

8. DigiLocker & UIDAI Aadhaar Verification Practices (DPDP Act 2023)

Authorized Providers Only: Bhumikaa does not operate custom or unverified Aadhaar authentication infrastructure. Identity verification is processed strictly via authorized DigiLocker and Cashfree Secure ID service providers.

Explicit User Consent: In full compliance with the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023, identity checks are initiated only after explicit, voluntary user consent is provided.

Data Minimization Policy: Bhumikaa strictly adheres to UIDAI storage regulations. We never store full 12-digit Aadhaar numbers, biometric data, or unmasked UIDAI documents in our databases. We only retain legal UIDAI metadata (verified name, year of birth, gender, state verification), verification status, and timestamp to maintain platform trust.

9. Property Document Verification & RERA Compliance (RERA Act 2016)

Property Document Audits: When sellers submit ownership documents (Sale Deeds, Encumbrance Certificates, Property Tax Receipts), Bhumikaa uses automated AI forensics and admin audit desks to verify name matching, property address alignment, and digital tamper detection.

Document Vault Encryption: Uploaded property legal documents are stored in encrypted vaults and are never shared with unauthorized third parties or public search engines.

RERA Registration Validation: Commercial builder listings are cross-verified against official state Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) databases under RERA Act 2016.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
