Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 October 2026 · Applies to the WithUrooj app and website.
This policy explains what personal data Al Urooj (“we”, “us”), trading as WithUrooj, collects when you use our app or website, why we collect it, how long we keep it, who it is shared with, and the choices you have. We only collect what the service genuinely needs to work.
1. What we collect
| Data | When | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Name | At registration | To identify your account and tell your cleaner who to expect |
| Mobile number | At sign-up / login | One-time passcode login and booking contact |
| Email address (optional) | At registration, or via Google sign-in | Receipts and account recovery |
| Service address | When you book | So the cleaner can reach the right place |
| Approximate location | Only while a job is active | Live tracking and arrival estimate |
| Booking history | Ongoing | Your bookings, receipts, ratings and support history |
| Job photos | Before and after each job | Proof of work for you and the cleaner |
| In-app messages | When you chat | To deliver the message and resolve disputes |
| Device push token | If you allow notifications | Booking status alerts |
We do not collect your contacts, your photo library, your browsing on other sites, or any special-category data such as health or religious information.
2. Why we use it
- To create and secure your account and log you in.
- To take a booking, match it to a verified cleaner, and let both sides follow its progress.
- To take payment and issue receipts and refunds.
- To provide customer support and investigate complaints.
- To keep the platform safe — verifying cleaner identity, preventing fraud and abuse.
- To meet our legal, tax and regulatory obligations in Pakistan.
We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it with advertisers.
3. Payment data
Payments are handled by Bank Alfalah / Mastercard Payment Gateway Services. Their handling of card data is governed by their own terms and PCI-DSS obligations.
4. Location data
- Your location is used to suggest your address and to show cleaners near you.
- A cleaner's live position is shared with you only while a job is active — from the moment they accept until the job is completed or cancelled. It is not shared at any other time.
- Your address is shared with the assigned cleaner only, and only after they accept the job.
- You can switch location permission off in your device settings at any time; you can still book by typing an address.
5. Job photos
Cleaners must photograph the site before starting work and the finished work before completing the job. These photos are attached to that booking and are visible to you, to the assigned cleaner, and to our support team if a complaint is raised. They are not published anywhere, and they are not used for marketing without your written permission.
6. Cleaner identity documents
If you register as a cleaning professional we additionally collect your CNIC number, photographs of your CNIC (front and back) and a selfie. This is used solely to verify your identity before you can accept jobs, and is reviewed by our verification team. Identity documents are never shown to customers — customers only see your name, photo, rating and verification status.
7. Who we share with
- Your assigned cleaner — your name, service address, booking details and chat messages, once they accept the job.
- Payment processor — Bank Alfalah, to take payment and process refunds.
- Infrastructure providers — our hosting and database providers, who store the data on our behalf under contract.
- Google Firebase — for phone/Google sign-in and push notifications.
- Authorities — only where we are legally required to, or to protect someone's safety.
8. Storage & security
- All traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit over HTTPS/TLS.
- Access to production data is restricted to authorised personnel who need it to operate the service.
- Sessions use signed tokens that expire, and logging out clears the session on your device.
- We keep records of bookings and payments as required for tax and dispute purposes.
9. How long we keep it
- Account data — while your account is open, and for a reasonable period afterwards for legal and accounting purposes.
- Bookings, receipts and payment records — as long as Pakistani tax and commercial law requires.
- Job photos and chat messages — kept with the booking, then deleted on the same schedule as the booking record.
- Cleaner identity documents — for as long as the cleaner is active on the platform, then deleted within a reasonable period after the account closes.
10. Your rights
You can ask us to:
- give you a copy of the personal data we hold about you;
- correct anything inaccurate (you can edit most details yourself in Profile);
- delete your account and associated personal data, subject to records we must keep by law;
- stop sending you notifications — turn them off in the app or your device settings.
Write to us using the contact details below and we will respond within 30 days.
11. Children
WithUrooj is not intended for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will remove it.
12. Changes & contact
