Privacy
What RoomFinder stores about you, who can see it, and how to delete it.
What we store
Your name, email address, role (student or landlord) and, if you add one, your phone number. Your password is stored only as a bcrypt hash, which can't be turned back into the password. For landlords: their rooms, room photos and the ID photo they upload for verification. For students: saved rooms, viewing requests, reviews and reports.
Who sees what
Room listings, landlords' names and reviews (with the reviewer's name) are public. A landlord sees the name and phone number of each student who asks to view their room. A student sees a landlord's phone number only after the landlord accepts their viewing. ID photos are seen only by RoomFinder admins, never by students.
Services we use
Data is kept in a PostgreSQL database run by our hosting provider. Emails, such as password resets, go through an email service, and alerts go through Telegram if you connect it. Maps come from OpenStreetMap, so your browser contacts their servers to show map images.
Cookies
One cookie keeps you logged in and one remembers your language. Your light or dark theme is saved in your browser. There are no advertising or tracking cookies.
Deleting your data
You can delete your account at any time in Settings. This permanently removes your profile, rooms, photos, saved rooms, viewing requests and reviews.
Contact
Questions, a problem with a listing or a landlord, or a request about your data: use the Report button on a listing, or contact the RoomFinder team at the Royal University of Phnom Penh.
