You are responsible for reviewing the information you publish and avoiding unnecessary disclosure of confidential or highly sensitive personal information.

The platform may request browser location permission to help you find nearby members, professionals, businesses and community services.

Location permission is optional. When precise coordinates are unavailable, we may use city, district or state information to provide approximate results.

We may use cookies and similar technologies to keep users signed in, remember preferences, improve security, measure traffic and understand how the platform is used.

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorised access, misuse, loss or alteration.

No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security. Members should use strong passwords, protect their login credentials and report suspicious activity promptly.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the platform, meet legal obligations, prevent fraud, resolve disputes and enforce agreements.

Certain information may remain in backups or records for a limited period after account deletion.
