Privacy policy
Last updated 9 August 2026. This policy covers the WePayGuard Android app and wepayguard.com during the private beta.
What we collect
- Account data — email address or other sign-in identifier, your public @handle, and profile details you choose to add.
- Transaction data — the transactions you create or join, amounts, delivery method, deadlines, status history and receipts.
- Delivery evidence — carrier and tracking details, shipping proof and handoff photos you upload.
- Dispute data — structured responses, evidence and settlement offers.
- Device data — a push notification token, registered when you install the app and sign in, whether or not you allow notifications, plus standard technical logs.
- Website analytics - aggregate, cookie-free page counts on wepayguard.com, measured with Cloudflare Web Analytics. No cookies are set, no cross-site tracking, and no advertising profiles. Cloudflare processes this data on our behalf and we do not receive anything that identifies you individually.
Why we collect it
To run transactions and escrow, to enforce deadlines and decide disputes under the published rules, to keep the audit records that protect both parties, to notify you when the other party acts, and to meet legal and anti-fraud obligations.
Who we share it with
The other party to a transaction sees your public handle, the transaction details and the evidence submitted in it. Beyond that, data is shared only with the infrastructure and payment providers required to operate the service — Google Firebase and Google Cloud for authentication, database, storage and hosting, and our payment provider for processing — and with authorities where the law requires it. We do not sell personal data.
How long we keep it
Transaction, receipt and audit records are retained for as long as required for financial, legal and dispute purposes. Profile data is retained while your account is open. Deleting your account does not delete completed transaction records the other party also relies on.
Your rights
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by writing to privacy@wepayguard.com. Depending on where you live you may also have rights to portability, to object to processing, and to complain to a supervisory authority.
Children
WePayGuard is not intended for anyone under 18.
Changes
Material changes will be announced in the app and dated at the top of this page.
