Privacy Policy
Last updated September 16, 2026
This policy explains how Yardy (“we”, “us”) handles personal information when you visit our website or use our services.
Information we collect
- Information you give us: name, email address, phone number, property address, account details, photos and videos you upload, messages you send, and documents you submit for identity or business checks.
- Payment information: handled by our payment providers. We receive limited details such as the status of a payment and the last digits of a card; we do not store full card numbers.
- Automatically collected information: device and browser type, IP address, approximate location derived from that address, pages viewed, and similar log data.
- Information from third parties: mapping and address data, identity or business verification results, and analytics providers.
How we use information
- To create and operate your account and provide the services.
- To verify identity, ownership, and business details, and to prevent fraud.
- To process payments and payouts and keep required financial records.
- To send service, transactional, and (where permitted) marketing messages.
- To provide support, improve the services, and measure performance.
- To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
Legal bases
Where required by law, we rely on: performance of a contract with you, our legitimate interests in operating and securing the services, compliance with legal obligations, and your consent (which you may withdraw at any time).
How we share information
We share personal information with service providers who work on our behalf — including hosting, database, mapping, email delivery, payment, and verification providers — under contracts that limit their use of it. We share information between a homeowner and a business only as needed to arrange and run a placement. We may also disclose information to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights and safety, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. We do not sell personal information.
Retention
We keep personal information for as long as your account is active and afterwards as needed to meet legal, tax, accounting, and dispute-resolution requirements, then delete or anonymize it.
Security
We use technical and organizational measures such as encryption in transit, access controls, and row-level database permissions. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to opt out of marketing messages. You can exercise these rights through our contact page. We will not discriminate against you for exercising them.
Children
The services are not directed to anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
International transfers
We operate in the United States, and information may be processed there or in other countries where our providers operate. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for those transfers.
Cookies
See our Cookie Policy for details on cookies and similar technologies.
Changes
We may update this policy. We will post the new version here with an updated date and, for material changes, provide additional notice.
