Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 September 2026

This policy explains what EKSU Marketplace collects, why we use it, and your choices. Questions may be sent to support@eksumarketplace.com.

1. Information we collect

  • Account and profile data: name, email, phone, username, bio, display location and avatar.
  • Listings, Housing and roommate content, task content, messages, ratings, reports, follows and team applications.
  • Verification data, payment references and statuses, subscriptions, boosts, rewards and referrals. Payment providers handle card details; we do not store full card details.
  • IP address, device/browser details, sessions, security and rate-limit events, usage logs and push-subscription technical data.

2. Public information

Your chosen username, name, avatar, bio, display location, follow counts, public ratings and available listings may be visible to others. Listings, Housing posts, tasks and reviews may also be public. Display location is user-entered context, not precise GPS tracking.

3. How we use information

We use information to operate accounts, email verification, Marketplace, Housing, Tasks, messaging, profiles and follows; process verification, subscriptions and boosts; administer rewards and referrals; deliver notifications; review reports; prevent fraud; provide support; review team applications; and improve reliability.

4. Service providers

  • Flutterwave processes applicable payments.
  • Cloudinary stores and delivers uploaded media.
  • Brevo delivers transactional email.
  • Browser push providers deliver Web Push when enabled.
  • Hosting, database, backup and infrastructure providers support the service.

5. Sharing and disclosure

We share data only as needed to provide the service, comply with law, protect users or investigate abuse. We do not sell passwords or payment-card details. User messages are not intentionally public; authorized administrators may access limited information for support and moderation.

6. Retention and account deletion

We retain data only as reasonably needed for operation, disputes, fraud prevention, accounting and legal obligations. Account deletion removes or anonymizes public identity and deactivates public content, while limited financial, security, moderation and message-history records may be retained where necessary.

7. Your choices and rights

You may edit profile data, control supported email/push preferences, withdraw optional permissions, or request access, correction or deletion subject to Nigerian data-protection law. Clearing browser storage can sign you out or reset preferences.

8. Security

We use password hashing, email verification, secure sessions, authorization, rate limiting and audit logs. Production uses HTTPS. No online service can guarantee absolute security; never share passwords or verification codes.

9. Children and students

Users must be able to lawfully create an account and participate in transactions. Users under 18 should involve a parent or guardian as required by applicable law.

10. Changes and contact

We may update this policy as the platform changes. The current date appears on this page. Contact support@eksumarketplace.com with privacy questions.
