Torrens Market ("the app") is a local secondhand marketplace for Adelaide, South Australia. This policy describes what data the app collects, why, and how you can remove it.
What we collect
| Data | Purpose | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | Sign-in (one-time code) and account identity | Never shown to other users |
| Display name, profile photo, suburb, nationality (optional) | Your public marketplace profile | Nationality is optional and self-declared |
| Listing content (photos, title, description, price, category details) | Publishing your listings | Public to all users |
| Approximate listing location | Distance display for buyers | Coordinates are rounded to a ~1.1 km grid on your device before upload; your exact GPS position never leaves your phone |
| Suburb verification result | The suburb-verified badge | Only a yes/no timestamp is stored — never your coordinates |
| Chat messages and chat photos | Buyer–seller conversations | Visible only to the two participants; chat photos live in a private bucket |
| Meetup proposals and price offers | In-chat deal-making | Visible only to the two participants |
| Reviews and ratings | The public trust-tier system | Reviews you receive are public on your profile |
| Push notification token | Delivering alerts you opted into | Removable by disabling notifications |
| Reports and blocks | Community safety | Reports are not visible to the reported user |
What we do not collect
No advertising identifiers, no analytics SDKs, no contact-list access, no background location, no payment details (trades are settled in person between users). The app is not used to track you across other apps or websites.
Where data lives
Data is stored with Supabase (managed PostgreSQL) in the
ap-southeast-2 (Sydney, Australia) region. Access is enforced by
row-level security: chat, meetups, offers, and favorites are readable only by
their participants/owners.
Sharing
We do not sell or share personal data with third parties. Push notifications are delivered through Expo's push service (message title/body in transit only).
