Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 24, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Realstake Ventures Private Limited ("Rentley", "We", "Us", or "Our") collects, uses, and protects information in connection with the Rentley rental platform. This policy is compliant with the Information Technology Act, 2000, and applicable rules thereunder.

1. Overview

At Rentley, your privacy is not an afterthought — it is a core design principle. We collect only what is necessary to deliver a safe, efficient, and trustworthy rental experience. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

By creating an account and using the Rentley platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the data practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Service.

2. Information We Collect

Identity & Contact Data

Your name, email address, phone number, and profile photo provided during account registration.

Verification Data

Government-issued ID information (e.g., Aadhaar, PAN) collected to ensure platform safety and prevent fraud. Handled with maximum security.

Location Data

Geographic information (city, pin code, and optional device location) used to show you relevant listings and to accurately pin property locations on our map.

Profile & Preference Data

Lifestyle preferences, languages spoken, and interests that you add to your profile to enable better tenant-owner matching.

Usage & Device Data

Anonymised data such as browser type, IP address, pages visited, and session duration used to improve the performance and design of our platform.

Communication Data

Messages, inquiries, and walk-in requests made through the platform, retained to resolve disputes and improve our moderation capabilities.

3. How We Use Your Data

  • To Provide Services: Connecting tenants and property owners, enabling walk-in scheduling, and managing listings.
  • Account Verification: Authenticating user identity to prevent fraud and maintain a safe community.
  • Communication: Sending transaction alerts, OTPs, platform updates, and responses to your support requests via email or SMS.
  • Platform Improvement: Analysing anonymised usage patterns to design better search algorithms, filter tools, and UI features.
  • Legal Compliance: Fulfilling obligations under applicable Indian laws, including responding to lawful government or regulatory requests.
  • Safety & Moderation: Investigating reports of policy violations, potential fraud, or harm to our users.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

  • Between Users: Profile information (name, photo, languages) visible to property owners when you express interest in a listing, and vice versa.
  • Service Providers: Trusted third-party vendors such as Neon (database), Cloudinary (media storage), and Resend (email delivery) who process data solely on our behalf and under strict data agreements.
  • Legal Obligations: When required by law, a court order, or governmental authority under Indian law.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction, with prior notice to you.

5. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures, including TLS/SSL encryption in transit, AES-256 encryption at rest (via Neon), and session-based authentication (via Auth.js/NextAuth). Access to personal data is restricted on a need-to-know basis. While we take every reasonable precaution, no method of data transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. If you request account deletion, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it by law (e.g., financial records, dispute resolution logs) for the period mandated by applicable Indian regulations.

7. Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correct any inaccurate or incomplete data via your profile settings.
  • Delete your account and associated personal data by contacting us at contact@rentley.in.

  • Object to the processing of your data for marketing or profiling purposes.

To exercise any of these rights, please write to us at contact@rentley.in. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Cookies & Tracking

We use session cookies strictly necessary for authentication (via NextAuth) and to maintain your logged-in state. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. You may configure your browser to decline cookies, but this may affect core platform functionality such as staying signed in.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, notify you via email or a prominent in-app notice at least 7 days before the change takes effect.
