Account details (name, email or phone, area in Metro Manila), listing content (photos, item details, pricing), and messages sent through the platform. Payment details are handled by our payment provider — Gara Closet does not store your card or e-wallet credentials.

To operate the marketplace — matching renters and lenders, processing bookings and payouts, verifying identity for lenders, and providing customer support. We also use aggregated, non-identifying data to improve the product.

We only send marketing emails (new arrivals, promotions, community updates) if you've opted in during signup or afterward in Settings. This is separate from account and booking notifications, which you'll always receive since they're necessary to use the service. You can turn marketing emails off anytime in Settings → Notifications, or via the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.

Your name, area, rating, and listing photos are visible to other users as part of using the marketplace. We share information with service providers who help us operate — payment processing, delivery/courier partners, and our CRM — under agreements limiting their use of it.

We keep account and transaction data for as long as your account is active and as required for legal, tax, and dispute-resolution purposes after that.

You can access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data, and withdraw marketing consent at any time, consistent with the Philippines' Data Privacy Act of 2012. Contact us to make a request.

We use industry-standard safeguards to protect your data, including encrypted storage and access controls. No system is perfectly secure, and we'll notify affected users if a breach affects their data.

We may update this policy as the platform evolves. Material changes will be communicated before they take effect.
