1. Data we collect

Account: your name, email, photo, phone number, and the name registered to your ZAAD or eDahab account, which our team uses to verify your number. Usage: listings, messages, deals, reviews, and reports. Device: a hashed device identifier and a notification token. If you choose: a photo of your ID and a selfie.

2. Why we use it

To run the service, verify accounts, detect fraud, handle reports and disputes, and send you safety alerts. We do not sell your data for advertising.

3. Scanning messages and listings

Messages and listings are scanned automatically to detect scams. Safety staff can read messages when there is a report, a dispute, or signs of fraud.

4. What other members see

Your name, photo, city, reputation, reviews, and listings. They do not see your email, phone number, or documents.

5. Location

We use your location only to show safe spots near you, while that screen is open. We do not store your location.

6. ID verification

ID photos are optional. They are stored in a private area that only the review team can open, and deleted once a decision is made.

7. Who we share with

Only companies that provide services to us: data hosting (Supabase), sign-in (Google, Apple), notifications (Expo, Apple), and crash reports. We may also share data when the law requires it.

8. How long we keep it

We keep data while your account is open. When you delete your account, your profile, listings, and messages are deleted. If an account was banned, we keep a hashed email, number, and device so the person cannot return.

9. Your rights

You can edit your data in Settings and delete your account. To ask for a copy of your data, contact the support address.

10. Children

Celis is not for anyone under 18. If we learn of such an account, we will close it.
