Privacy Policy
Overview
This privacy policy explains how Hyderabad Ads handles information submitted through classified ads, business listings, contact forms, report forms and normal website usage. The site is built for local discovery and safety, so we collect only the information needed to operate, moderate and improve the service.
Information you submit
When you submit a classified ad, business listing, contact message or report, we may receive details such as name, email, phone number, WhatsApp number, Telegram username, location, listing text, business details, uploaded images, message content and page URLs you mention.
Information collected automatically
Basic technical information may be logged by the website, hosting provider, security tools and analytics tools. This can include IP address, browser type, device data, visited pages, referrer, date and time, security events and spam-detection signals.
How we use information
- To publish, edit, moderate or reject submitted listings and business profiles.
- To respond to contact messages, correction requests and scam reports.
- To detect spam, duplicate submissions, unsafe payment requests and suspicious behaviour.
- To improve local categories, search, safety guides and site performance.
- To comply with lawful requests or protect users from fraud and abuse.
Public listing data
Information included in a published ad or business listing can become visible to visitors and search engines. Do not submit private identity documents, bank details, passwords, OTPs, private addresses or any sensitive data that should not be public.
Contact and Telegram delivery
Messages from contact forms may be delivered to the site operator through the project contact bot. This helps us respond faster, but you should not send passwords, payment credentials or sensitive documents through the form.
Cookies, analytics and ads
The site may use cookies or similar technologies for basic functionality, analytics, security, advertising and affiliate tracking. Third-party tools may process data under their own policies.
Data sharing
We do not sell private submission data as a standalone product. Data may be shared with service providers that help run hosting, security, analytics, forms, moderation and communication. Public listing data is visible by design after publication.
Retention and deletion
We keep submissions, reports and logs for as long as needed to operate the site, resolve disputes, prevent repeated abuse and maintain safety records. You may request correction or removal of your own listing by sending the page URL and proof that you control the submission.
Children and sensitive data
The site is not intended for children to submit personal data. Do not submit Aadhaar, PAN, bank account, card, OTP, password, health, caste, religion or other sensitive personal information through public forms.
