Privacy Policy
At VHUMI Agri Marketplace, operated by BGS Group, we are fully committed to protecting your privacy and security. This Privacy Policy outlines exactly how our mobile application accesses, collects, uses, and safeguards your device data to help you safely document and trade agricultural products.
1. Information We Collect
To deliver our secure trading environment and verify products successfully, we process the following data formats:
- Location Information We collect precise and approximate real-time geographic coordinates using your device’s GPS sensor.
- Camera & Media Assets We access your device's built-in camera and microphone resources whenever you choose to record verification clips.
- Storage Directory Access We interface directly with your device's visual media directories to output completed video processes safely.
- Corporate & Sign-In Details When creating an account, we record your legal name, business brand name, and email address for secure verification.
2. Why We Require Permissions
These essential permissions are requested solely to establish the clear physical authenticity of every listed harvest:
- Precise Location Access This is utilized to create an integrated "GPS Location Stamp" directly inside the video layer. This offers immediate proof to potential platform buyers showing exactly which farm or facility the harvest originated from.
- Camera & Microphone These are strictly active when you trigger the native "GPS Video Cam" tool to display harvest and commodity characteristics.
- Media Gallery Storage (Photos/Videos) Allows our processing layer to write and output your stamped, branded video items directly onto your smartphone memory so they can be securely archived or shared.
- Internal DOM State Access We rely on localized session-cookies and DOM state storage within our app container to verify you securely and ensure OTP codes match seamlessly during logins.
3. Data Usage & Sharing
Your privacy is non-negotiable. Here is how your verified profile data is distributed:
- Internal Verification We process your profile information only to authenticate active sales, listings, and trade operations.
- No Third-Party Exploitation We do not sell, license, lease, or rent your private details, locations, or media files to third-party ad brokers. Your crop video uploads are visible only to active traders trying to purchase your listing.
- Robust Transmission Safety We deploy industry-level Secure Sockets Layer (SSL/TLS) network wrappers to shield both login updates and active video data.
4. Your Controls & Choices
You maintain ultimate authority over your phone configuration settings. Permissions can be manually adjusted at any time:
To alter setup access: Open Android Settings > Apps > VHUMI > Permissions. Check or uncheck access points as desired.
*Please Note: Restricting permissions for camera or GPS hardware elements will prevent the core functionality of the video stamping tool.
5. Data Retention Policy
We maintain active data stores only during the lifetime of your professional membership. You can choose to completely purge your records, locations, and personal profiles by messaging our technical desk directly.
