This page explains what information Mayorcity E-Mart collects, why, and how it's protected.
When you create an account, we collect your full name, email address, phone/WhatsApp number, matric number, department, level, and a photo of your student ID card. When you post a listing or a Lost & Found report, we collect the details you provide (item name, description, price, photos, contact info). When you pay a listing fee, Paystack processes your payment — we never see or store your card details ourselves; we only receive a payment reference confirming the transaction succeeded.
Your registration details are used to verify that you're a genuine student before allowing you to post listings. Your listing information is shown publicly on the marketplace so other students can browse and contact you. Your student ID photo is visible only to you and to platform admins/moderators reviewing verification requests — it is never shown publicly.
Your data is stored with Supabase, our database and authentication provider, using industry-standard access controls (Row Level Security) so that sensitive fields like your student ID and phone number are only accessible to you and authorized admins — never to other regular users or the public. Payments are processed by Paystack under their own security and compliance standards.
We retain your account and listing data for as long as your account is active. If you'd like your account and associated data deleted, contact us via the Contact section and we'll process the request.
The platform uses your browser's local session storage to keep you signed in between visits. We don't use tracking cookies or sell your data to advertisers.
We may update this policy as the platform grows. Continued use of the platform after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
