Privacy Policy
Last updated: 22 July 2026
Who we are
lucknowrent.space is a free, owner-direct rental listing board for Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. We are not a broker and we do not charge tenants or owners. Contact: founder via the About page.
What we collect
- Listing data you enter: title, type, area, rent, WhatsApp number, description, and an optional room photo.
- Account data: your Google sign-in name, email, and user ID. We never ask for or store your password.
- Uploaded photos: images you attach to a listing are stored in Google Firebase Storage and served publicly so renters can see the room.
- Usage data: standard server logs (IP, browser, page viewed) used only for security and analytics.
How we use it
Listing data and photos are public so renters can find and view rooms on the map and cards. Your WhatsApp number is shown only on your own listing so interested renters can contact you directly. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to anyone. We use aggregated, anonymous stats to operate and improve the site.
Photos you upload
By uploading a photo you confirm you have the right to share it and that it depicts the rental you are listing. Photos are visible to everyone who visits the site. Do not upload images containing other people's personal documents, faces without consent, or anything unlawful. We may remove photos that violate these terms. You can delete a photo by deleting the listing.
Third-party services
- Google Firebase (Hosting, Firestore, Authentication, Storage) — stores your listings, account, and photos.
- Google AdSense — shows ads to keep the site free. AdSense may set advertising cookies; see Google's Ad Settings to control them.
- OpenStreetMap & Esri — provide map tiles. They receive only standard tile-request logs, not your personal data.
Cookies
The site itself does not set tracking cookies. Google AdSense may place advertising cookies in your browser. You can block or clear them in your browser settings; doing so does not affect core functionality.
Data retention
- Listings and photos stay published until you delete them or we remove them for policy reasons.
- Deleted listings and their photos are removed from public view immediately and purged from storage within 30 days.
- Server logs are retained for up to 12 months for security.
Your rights & control
- Delete your own listing and its photo anytime from the site.
- Request deletion of your account data by emailing the founder from the About page.
- Opt out of personalised ads via Google Ads Settings.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has submitted data, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
Data is stored in Google Firebase with industry-standard access controls. Listing photos are publicly readable by design (so renters can view them); only signed-in users can upload, and only to their own folder.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. Material changes will be noted by the "Last updated" date above.
