1. Introduction
Listifys is a global classified marketplace accessible to users in India. We respect Indian data-protection and intermediary obligations applicable to our role as an online platform.
1-1Purpose of This Notice
This document supplements our Privacy Policy with India-specific information about data fiduciary responsibilities, user rights, grievance redressal, and intermediary due diligence.
It is provided for transparency and operational guidance. It does not constitute legal advice.
1-2Data Fiduciary
For personal data covered by the DPDP Act, Listifys acts as a Data Fiduciary when we determine the purpose and means of processing through the Platform, except where we process data solely on behalf of another entity as a Data Processor under contract.
2. Processing Under the DPDP Act
2-1Personal Data We Process
- Registration details: name, mobile number, email, city, language preference

- Marketplace activity: listings, photos, messages, offers, reviews, transaction metadata
- Payment and payout information processed through regulated partners
- Device and log data: IP address, app version, crash reports, security events
- Grievance and moderation records relating to user reports
2-2Lawful Processing Grounds
We process personal data for specified purposes based on consent where required, and otherwise for legitimate uses permitted under the DPDP Act, including performance of a contract, compliance with law, and certain legitimate interests consistent with user expectations for a marketplace service.
For children, we do not knowingly offer account registration below eighteen (18) years of age. Where parental consent mechanisms are introduced for permitted minor use, we will implement verifiable consent workflows as required.
2-3Notice and Consent
At or before collection, we provide itemized notice describing data collected, purposes, retention, rights, and grievance contacts. Non-essential processing, including certain marketing or optional analytics, relies on consent that may be withdrawn through settings or contact@listifys.com.

If we become aware of a personal data breach affecting users in India, we will take reasonable steps to mitigate harm and notify affected Data Principals and the Data Protection Board of India or other competent authority as required by applicable law.
4. Cross-Border Transfers
4-1Transfer Outside India
Because Listifys is headquartered in the United States, personal data of Indian users may be stored or processed outside India through our infrastructure and subprocessors. We conduct transfers in accordance with DPDP Act requirements and government notifications on permissible destinations and safeguards.

Vendors processing Indian personal data on our behalf are bound by contracts requiring confidentiality, security measures, deletion upon termination, and assistance with breach notification and rights requests.
