DATA HANDLING PRACTICES

How We Protect and Manage Your Data

We apply technical and organisational measures across every layer of your account — from the moment you key in your UPI ID to the point a withdrawal lands in your PhonePe wallet.

Data We Actually Collect

We collect your name, contact details, payment identifiers such as your UPI handle or Paytm number, device type, and session timestamps. We do not collect data beyond what your account activity requires.

Cookie Usage

We use cookies to keep your session active and remember your language preference. Analytics cookies help us understand which pages load slowly on Indian mobile networks so we can fix them. You can manage cookies in your browser settings.

Account Security Measures

Your password is stored as a one-way hash — we cannot read it. Two-factor authentication is available and we encourage you to enable it. All data in transit between your device and our servers is encrypted.

Data Retention Schedule

Active account data is held for the duration your account remains open plus the period required by applicable law. If you close your account, most personal data is deleted within 90 days unless a legal obligation requires us to keep it longer.

Third-Party Sharing

We share data only with payment processors such as UPI networks, Paytm and PhonePe to complete transactions, and with fraud-detection partners. We do not sell your personal data to advertisers or unrelated third parties.

Requesting Data Changes

You may request a copy of your data, ask us to correct inaccuracies, or ask for deletion by contacting [email protected]. We will confirm receipt within 48 hours and complete the action within seven working days.

Common Questions About Your Privacy at 9yardz

The questions below cover the data rights and account privacy topics we hear most often. If your question is not listed here, our privacy team at [email protected] will respond within seven working days.

We collect your name, email address, phone number, date of birth for eligibility checks, and payment identifiers like your UPI handle or Paytm-linked number. Device type and session timestamps are also recorded to protect your account from unauthorised access.

Transaction references are stored to match deposits and withdrawals to your account. Full UPI credentials and PhonePe wallet details pass through the payment gateway — we hold only the reference ID and amount, never your full payment credentials.

Yes. Email [email protected] from your registered address with the subject line 'Data Access Request'. We will compile and send you a summary of the personal data on your account within seven working days of receiving your request.

Submit a deletion request via the on-site form in Account Settings or email [email protected]. Once verified, we delete personal data within 90 days. Data we are legally required to retain — such as transaction records — will be held only for the statutory period.

We share data only with payment processors (UPI networks, Paytm, PhonePe) to complete transactions and with fraud-prevention partners. We do not sell or rent your personal data to advertisers, data brokers, or any unrelated third party.
