HOW WE PROTECT YOU

Data Handling, Cookies and Account Security

We apply layered security across every part of how your data is stored and transmitted.

Encryption at Rest and in Transit

All personal and payment data is encrypted both while stored on our servers and while moving between your device and matkajeeto.co, using industry-standard TLS protocols so your details cannot be read in transit.

Cookie Policy and Your Choices

We use session cookies to keep you logged in and analytics cookies to understand which lobby pages load slowly. You can manage or refuse non-essential cookies through the settings panel in your account at any time.

Account Access Controls

Your matkajeeto account is protected by a password you set and, optionally, two-factor verification via your registered mobile number. We never ask for your password by email or chat — treat any such request as fraudulent.

Data Retention Periods

We keep account and transaction records for as long as required under applicable Indian financial regulations. Once those periods lapse and your account is closed, we delete or anonymise the data in accordance with our internal retention schedule.

Third-Party Data Sharing Limits

Personal data is shared only with payment processors — UPI networks, Paytm, PhonePe — and with fraud-prevention services, and only to the minimum extent each party needs. We do not share data with advertisers or data brokers.

Requesting Data Changes

You can request a copy of all data we hold on you, ask us to correct inaccurate records, or ask us to erase your data where no legal obligation requires us to retain it. Submit requests via live chat or email and we respond within 72 business hours.
