ConnectScanPay makes simple digital shop pages and cards for local businesses. We like to keep things simple and honest, so here is how we look after information.
What we use
We only use public business information that you, the shop owner, give us:
- Your shop name, and if you like, a short tagline and city
- Your public WhatsApp business number
- Links to your Instagram, Facebook and Google review pages
We may also keep a few simple notes for our own records, like whether your card has been delivered. These never appear on your public page. We will never ask for Aadhaar, PAN, bank account details or passwords.
Your customers stay private
We do not collect any personal data from customers who scan your QR code or tap your NFC card. Shop pages have no sign-up, no forms, no cookies, no ads and no tracking or analytics scripts. Our public pages never use cookies, ads or tracking either.
When someone taps a button, they simply move to WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook or Google, where those apps’ own privacy policies apply.
When you send us a message
Our homepage has a small message form, so you can reach us without searching for a number. When you send it, we keep your mobile number, your name (if you add it) and your message, along with the time it was sent.
- We use them only to reply to you about our service — by call or WhatsApp.
- We never sell them, and we never share them with anyone for their marketing.
- They are stored safely on Cloudflare, and only we can see them, in our private admin area.
- We delete them whenever you ask, or once they are no longer needed. Either way, they are removed automatically within 12 months.
To stop spam, the form briefly keeps a scrambled, one-way code made from the sender’s internet (IP) address and number, for no more than two days. It can’t be turned back into the real address, and we never store the IP address itself.
Where your page lives
Your page is hosted on Cloudflare, a large and trusted web host. Like any host, Cloudflare may handle basic technical data (such as IP address and browser type) to show pages quickly and keep them safe from attacks, under its own privacy policy. We never use this to identify or follow visitors.
Our private admin area uses one small security cookie for our own login. It is never used on public pages.
We may also keep a private backup copy of shop details and messages for our own records, for example in our own Google account or on our own computer. Only we can see it, and we delete it in the same way when you ask.
Payments go straight to you
The payment QR on your card is your own UPI QR. Money goes directly from your customer’s UPI app to you. We never receive, hold or see any payment or bank details.
We never sell your details
We don’t sell or rent any information. Your shop details appear on your page only because you asked us to show them.
How long we keep things
We keep your shop details only while your page is active, or until you ask us to delete them. Messages sent through our contact form are removed automatically within 12 months. If you ever want anything corrected or deleted, just send us a message using the contact form (below). Privacy and deletion requests are always free. Once deleted, your page stops working and your details are removed from our live records.
Your rights
We aim to follow India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and other applicable laws. You can always ask us what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or share any concern.
Questions or concerns?
We’re happy to help. For any privacy question, correction, deletion request or complaint (our grievance contact), reach us here:
- Message form: send us a message with your mobile number, and we will call or WhatsApp you back.
Good to know
We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version is always on this page, and the “Last updated” date at the top shows when it last changed.
