Privacy policyEffective 3 September 2026 · v1.0

What we collect, and what we do not.

The short version, in plain words. Everything below it is the same thing said precisely.

We collect what a delivery needs

Your phone number to sign you in, the addresses a parcel travels between, and — for drivers — the documents the law requires before someone may carry goods.

We do not sell it, ever

Five named companies process parts of it on our behalf, listed further down with exactly what each one receives. Nobody else gets it, and no one pays us for it.

You can take it back

Delete your account from the app and the personal data goes. There is a 30-day window first, because a mistaken tap should be recoverable and erasure is not.

Everything we collect, and who it applies to.

Most of this list is not about you. Documents and bank details are what the law asks of someone carrying goods for hire — we never ask them of a customer.

We do not collect anything not on this list. If you find something we hold that is not here, it is an error — tell us and we will fix both the data and this page.

Where your phone number actually goes.

One piece of data, followed end to end. Every other field takes a shorter path than this one.

  1. Your phone

    You type the number into the app.

    Nothing has left the device yet.

  2. Our server

    Stored against your account, and a six-digit code is generated.

    The code is stored as a hash, never in the clear.

  3. MSG91leaves us

    Receives your number and the code, so it can send you the SMS.

    They see the number because they are the ones sending the text. Nothing else goes with it.

  4. Back to us

    You enter the code; we compare it and sign you in.

    The code is deleted automatically ten minutes after it was issued.

If you delete your account

The number is replaced with a placeholder and cannot be read back. We keep a one-way SHA-256 hash of it so that a deleted number can never be used to open a new account — which lets us answer “is this that number?” forever, and “what was the number?” never.

How long we keep it.

Two of these are deleted by a job on a clock. The rest are kept while your account is open — and we would rather say so than name a deadline nothing enforces.

  • Sign-in codesDeleted automatically
    10 minutes

    A database TTL index, plus an hourly sweep. Not a policy — a mechanism.

  • Trip verification codesDeleted automatically
    60 minutes

    Expire with the trip they belong to.

  • A closed account, before erasureDeleted automatically
    30 days

    A daily job erases accounts past this mark. The window exists so a mistaken deletion can be undone by support — and not after.

  • Bookings and trip recordsNo automatic deletion
    While your account is open

    Nothing deletes these on a schedule. They are your delivery history, and they go when the account is erased.

  • Driver documentsNo automatic deletion
    While your account is open

    We are required to be able to show that a driver carrying goods was verified.

  • Payments and invoicesNo automatic deletion
    As long as tax law requires

    A tax invoice is not ours to delete. Indian law sets how long these are kept, and that outlives an account.

The axis is logarithmic — ten minutes and thirty days cannot share a straight line without one of them disappearing. Bars that run off the right have no end date because no job ends them; that data goes when your account is erased.

Who else touches it. All five.

We do not sell your data and nobody pays us for it. These five companies process a part of it because a delivery cannot happen otherwise — each gets only its own slice, and none of them talk to each other.

  1. RazorpayPayments and driver payouts

    Payment identifiers, amount, and the contact details a payment needs.

    Your card and UPI credentials are entered on their side. They never reach us.

  2. MSG91Sign-in text messages

    Your phone number and the six-digit code.

    Only at the moment a code is sent.

  3. Amazon Web ServicesDocument storage

    Driver KYC documents and photographs.

    Storage only. Nothing is read from them except by us.

  4. Google MapsAddresses, routing and the live map

    Pickup and drop coordinates, and a driver's position while a trip is live.

    Required for the map you watch a delivery on.

  5. FirebasePush notifications

    A device token, if your app registers one.

    ⚠️ Not currently in use. The integration exists and has never been switched on — no push notification has been sent to anyone.

When location is on, and when it is not.

This applies to drivers. A customer's location is never continuously read — only the addresses on a booking.

On a trip

Read continuously, and shown to the customer whose delivery it is.

Location on
  1. OffOfflineNothing is read. The app is not tracking you.
  2. OnOnline, waitingYour position is read so nearby work can be offered to you.
  3. OnOn a tripRead continuously, and shown to the customer whose delivery it is.
  4. OffTrip deliveredContinuous reading stops. One last-known point remains until you go online again.
  5. OffOffline againNothing is read.

What you can ask us to do.

These are not favours. Three of the five you can do yourself, right now, without contacting anybody.

See what we hold

Ask, and we will send you the personal data on your account.

Correct it

Name, email and business billing details are editable in the app. Ask us for anything that is not.

Delete your account

In the app: Settings → Delete account. It closes immediately; the data is erased 30 days later.

Turn off notifications

In the app, per channel. It never affects a delivery you have already booked.

Complain

To us first — we would rather fix it. If that fails, to the authority in your jurisdiction.

What “delete” actually does.

Three stages, and the middle one is deliberate. We would rather be able to undo a mistake than be fast about it.

  1. The moment you tap it

    The account closes. You are signed out everywhere, the number stops working as a login, and nobody can book with it.

  2. For the next 30 days

    The data still exists, and support can restore the account if the tap was a mistake. Nothing new happens on it.

  3. After that

    A job erases the personal data. The phone number is replaced with a placeholder that is not a phone number, and only a one-way hash of the original remains — enough to stop that number opening a new account, and not enough to ever read it back.

You can stop this at any point in the first 30 days by contacting support. After that there is nothing to restore — which is the point of erasing something.

If something here is wrong, tell us.
