1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how waahanasale.lk collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you use our platform.
2. Information we collect
We collect information you provide directly — such as your name, contact details, and listing content — as well as technical data like your device type, IP address, and how you interact with the platform.
3. How we use your information
We use your information to operate the marketplace, display your listings, enable messaging between users, provide support, prevent fraud, and improve our services.
4. Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. Listing details you publish are visible to other users. We may share data with service providers who help us operate the platform, or where required by law, such as responding to subpoenas or assisting law enforcement.
5. Third-Party Services and Advertising
We may use third-party analytics (e.g., Google Analytics) and advertising partners (e.g., Google AdSense) to deliver targeted advertisements and measure platform usage. These partners may collect device and usage data through cookies.
6. Data retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services and comply with legal obligations. You may request deletion of your account.
7. Your rights
You may access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data, and object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at our support team.
8. Data deletion instructions
To delete your waahanasale.lk account and the personal data associated with it, email our support team from the address registered on your account with the subject "Data deletion request". This covers accounts created with an email and password as well as accounts created through Google or Facebook sign-in. Deleting your account removes your profile, your listings, and your messages; we may retain a limited record where the law requires us to.
9. Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and analyse usage. See our Cookie Policy for details.
10. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information, though no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.
