Privacy Policy

Last updated 22 August 2026

This policy explains what the GigPay mobile app collects, why, who it is shared with, and how you can get it deleted. It applies to the GigPay Android app and the services behind it, operated by bahzad.

What we collect

Data Why
Phone number It is your login. We send a one-time code to it to verify it is yours.
Name, username, email address To identify your account and let other GigPay users send money to you.
Profile photo Shown on your profile. Optional — the app works without one.
Transaction records Amounts, dates, counterparties and status for every transfer, top-up, withdrawal, airtime purchase and bill payment you make.
Payout details Bank or mobile money account name and number, used only to send your withdrawals to you.
Saved beneficiaries People you choose to save for quick sending.
Device notification token To deliver push notifications about your account activity.
Support messages What you write to our support team, so we can answer you.
Biometrics. If you turn on fingerprint or face unlock, the check happens on your device. Your fingerprint or face is never sent to us and we never store it. We only hold a random token that tells us your device completed the check successfully.

What we do not collect

The app asks for camera and photo access only when you choose to set a profile picture. If you decline, everything else still works.

Who we share it with

Only the providers needed to actually move money, and only the data each one needs:

We also disclose data where the law requires it, such as a lawful request from a regulator or law enforcement.

How long we keep it

Your profile data is kept while your account is open. When you delete your account, your personal data is removed as described below.

Transaction records are the exception. Financial regulations require us to retain records of money movements even after an account closes. We keep those, but we strip your name, username, email, phone number and photo from them first, so what remains cannot be traced back to you through our systems.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account at any time — from Profile → Delete account in the app, or by requesting deletion here.

Deletion removes your name, username, email address, phone number, profile photo, cards, saved beneficiaries, notifications and support conversations, and signs you out everywhere. It cannot be undone. If your wallet still holds a balance, withdraw it first — deletion will not release it to you afterwards.

Security

Traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted with HTTPS. Access to your account requires a one-time code sent to your phone number, and optionally your device's fingerprint or face unlock.

Children

GigPay is not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes

If this policy changes materially, we will update this page and change the date at the top. Continuing to use GigPay after a change means you accept the updated policy.
