Vouched is built on a privacy-first philosophy. We collect the minimum data necessary to prevent fraud and build trust. Nothing more.
Your trust is everything to us. Vouched will never sell your personal data, share it with advertisers, or monetize it in any way beyond providing our core service. We do not use tracking cookies, run third-party analytics scripts, or embed advertising pixels. Your data exists solely to power your reputation and keep the platform safe.
When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and username. We also collect your zip code, which is used exclusively for fraud prevention purposes.
We collect standard session data such as IP address and user agent string to protect your account and detect unauthorized access.
You may choose to provide additional information such as transaction details, platform connections, profile photos, and evidence uploads for dispute resolution. This information is provided at your discretion.
Identity verification is handled entirely by a third-party identity verification provider. Vouched does not receive, store, or have access to your identity documents, selfies, or biometric data at any point during the verification process. The only information we receive is your verification status (verified or unverified). Your sensitive identity documents never touch our servers.
We use a limited number of third-party services to operate the platform. Data shared with each provider is the minimum necessary for the service to function:
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encrypted data transmission over HTTPS, secure session management, and encrypted data storage. We regularly review our security practices to ensure your information remains protected.
We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and associated personal data at any time by contacting us. Upon deletion, your personal information will be removed from our systems. Certain anonymized data related to completed transactions may be retained for fraud prevention and platform integrity purposes.
Vouched uses only essential session cookies required to keep you signed in and maintain your session security. We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or any third-party cookie-based analytics.
You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time. To exercise any of these rights, please reach out through our contact page.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via email or through a prominent notice on the platform. We encourage you to review this page periodically for the latest information.
