Privacy Policy

What we collect

Account info (name, email, phone), pickup addresses, photos you upload, payment method (via Stripe; we don't store card numbers), driver ID and vehicle info, location while you're driving on the platform, and platform usage data.

How we use it

To match you with a Buddy or a job, price jobs accurately, route drivers, process payments, prevent fraud, respond to support requests, and improve the platform. We do not sell your personal information.

Who we share with

The other party in a transaction (a Buddy sees your address and photo; a customer sees the Buddy's name, rating, and vehicle). Service providers (Stripe for payments + identity, Twilio for SMS, Vercel for hosting, our email provider). Government authorities when legally required.

Retention

Account data: kept while your account is active plus 3 years for tax and dispute records. Photos: kept 90 days after the pickup is complete, then deleted. Aggregate anonymized data may be retained longer.

Your rights (PIPEDA)

You may request a copy of your personal information, correct it, or delete it by emailing privacy@junkbuddy.io. We respond within 30 days.
