Privacy Policy

01Introduction

Siriniwasa.com is a property classifieds marketplace connecting buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants across Sri Lanka. We are committed to protecting the privacy of everyone who visits our website or posts an advertisement.

02Information we collect

We collect the following categories of information:

• Account details you provide — name, email address and mobile number.
• Listing information — property details, descriptions, prices, locations and photographs you upload.
• Verification data — such as phone-verification status, where verification is enabled.
• Technical data — IP address, device type, browser and pages visited.

03How we use your information

We use your information to operate and improve the service, verify listings, prevent fraud, respond to enquiries, and send service-related notifications. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

04Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your search preferences, and understand how the site is used. You can disable cookies in your browser, though some features may not work as intended.

05Third-party services

We rely on trusted third parties to deliver certain features, which may include SMS gateways for verification, email providers for notifications, and analytics tools. These providers may process limited data on our behalf under their own privacy terms.

06User accounts

When you register, we store your credentials securely. You are responsible for keeping your login details confidential. You may update your account details at any time from your profile, or contact us to delete your account.

07Property listings

Information you include in a public advertisement — such as area, price and contact number — is visible to all visitors. Do not include sensitive personal information in your listings that you do not wish to make public.

08Data security

We use encryption in transit, access controls, and regular security reviews to protect your data. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

09Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below.

10Data retention

We retain your information only as long as necessary to provide the service and comply with legal obligations. Expired or removed listings and inactive accounts are periodically deleted.

11Children's privacy

Siriniwasa.com is not intended for use by anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a minor has provided us data, please contact us so we can remove it.

12Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance.
