Privacy Policy

How RentMeter handles your property records, tenant details, and payment entries under Indian Information Technology laws and the DPDP Act.

1. Information We Collect

RentMeter (“we”, “our”, or “us”) provides a digital property register. When you use the app to manage your rental property, PG, or guest house, we collect the information you enter to keep your records organized:

  • Account Information: Name, mobile phone number for secure OTP login, and optional email address.
  • Property and Room Details: Property name, total rooms or bed capacity, and monthly rent targets.
  • Tenant Records: Tenant name, phone number, room assignment, joining date, security deposit amount, and monthly rent dues.
  • Payment History: Amounts collected, payment dates, payment modes (Cash, UPI, Bank Transfer), and generated receipts.

2. How We Use Your Information

Your property and tenant records are used solely to run your day-to-day rental register. This includes calculating total rent collected, tracking pending dues, updating room occupancy status, and generating rent receipts that you can share directly via WhatsApp. We do not sell, rent, or trade your tenant lists or payment data to advertisers or third-party lead brokers.

3. Data Protection and Storage

We take the security of your property data seriously. In accordance with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act of India:

  • Secure Processing: All payment processing and subscription workflows are handled through verified payment partners. We do not store sensitive UPI PINs or card details on our servers.
  • Data Privacy: Your tenant contacts and rent balances are kept private and accessible only through your authenticated mobile login.
  • No Data Selling: RentMeter never sells your rental income figures or tenant phone numbers to third parties.

4. Device Permissions

The mobile app requests device permissions only when required to perform a specific action you choose:

  • Contacts (Optional): To help you select and add tenant phone numbers directly from your address book without manual typing.
  • Storage and Photos (Optional): To allow you to attach optional tenant profile pictures or save payment receipts to your device.
  • Notifications: To notify you of rent due dates, payment confirmations, and system updates.

5. Your Rights and Data Deletion

You own your property records. You can update tenant details, edit room allocations, and adjust payment logs at any time inside the app. If you decide to stop using RentMeter, you can request complete deletion of your account and all associated property data by contacting us at rentmeterapp@gmail.com. We process verified deletion requests promptly.
