Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6 June 2026. This policy explains how NearGlow collects, uses, stores, and protects data for users, salon owners, and staff.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect account details such as your name, email, phone number, profile role, booking history, chat activity, device notification token, and salon or queue-related data needed to operate the app.

2. Location Data

NearGlow may request device location to help users discover nearby salons and improve local booking results. Location access depends on your device permissions.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use collected data to create accounts, show nearby salons, manage bookings, send notifications, support chat, improve reliability, prevent abuse, and operate owner and staff features.

4. Notifications and Messaging

Notification tokens and message-related data may be used to deliver booking alerts, queue updates, cancellations, chat notifications, and important account-related messages.

5. Shop Owner and Staff Data

For owners and staff, we may store business information such as shop name, hours, staff details, services, pricing, booking actions, and operating status shown inside the app.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information. Relevant booking and communication details may be shared between customer, shop owner, and staff only as needed for service coordination inside the platform.

7. Data Storage and Security

We take reasonable steps to protect stored account and app data, but no online system can guarantee absolute security. Users should also protect their own login credentials.

8. Retention

We may retain profile, booking, review, chat, and operational records for service continuity, compliance, support, dispute handling, and app improvement needs.

9. Your Choices

You may update some profile information from the app. You can also manage device permissions such as location and notifications through your phone settings.

10. Children's Privacy

NearGlow is not intended for unlawful or unauthorized use by children where guardian consent is required under local rules.

11. Policy Updates

This privacy policy may be updated from time to time. Continued use of the app after an update means you accept the revised privacy terms.
