Privacy Policy
Supplier2Shop — bulk ordering between shopkeepers and their suppliers
This policy explains what Supplier2Shop collects, why, who can see it, and how to get it deleted. It covers the Supplier2Shop Android app and the backend services behind it.
The short version. We collect the details needed to run a trading relationship between a shop and its supplier — who you are, how to reach you, where to deliver, and what was ordered. We share those details only with the trading partners you connect to. We do not sell your data, we do not show ads, and we do not process payments.

2 What we collect
Everything below is provided by you, or generated by your use of the app.
| Data | Why we need it |
|---|---|
| Mobile number | Your sign-in credential, and how a trading partner reaches you |
| Name | Identifies you to the partners you trade with |
| Email address | Account recovery, and Google sign-in if you use it |
| Profile photo | Shown to your trading partners so they recognise you |
| Business name, category and GST number | Identifies your business to your partners |
| Address, city, state and PIN code | So a supplier knows where to deliver |
| Gender | Optional profile detail; you may leave it blank |
| Contact number for the shop or business line | The number a partner rings about an order |
| Orders, quantities, delivery dates and notes | The core function of the app |
| Catalogue items and their photos (suppliers) | What your shopkeepers order from |
| Language preference | So the app opens in your language on any device |
| Device push token, model and Android version | To deliver notifications, and to flag a sign-in from a new device |
| Advertising ID | Read by Firebase Analytics, which counts which screens get used. Never used to advertise to you — see below |
| Crash reports | To find and fix faults (Firebase Crashlytics) |
What we do not collect
- We do not collect your location. The app has no location permission.
- We do not access your camera roll or contacts beyond the single photo you choose to upload.
- We do not process payments and never see your bank or card details. You settle with your trading partner exactly as you do outside the app.
- The app contains no ads and no third-party trackers, and we do not advertise to you.
About the advertising ID
Google's Firebase Analytics, which we use to count which screens get opened, reads your device's advertising ID. We would rather say so than let the word "advertising" go unexplained: we run no ads, we sell nothing to advertisers, and we do not build a profile of you. It reaches Google as part of Analytics and goes no further.
The ID belongs to your device, not to us, and you control it. On Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads, where you can reset it or delete it entirely. The app works exactly the same either way.
3 Who can see your data
Your trading partners
Once you and another business connect inside the app, they can see your name, business name, profile photo, contact number, business category and delivery address, along with any orders between the two of you. This is the point of the app — a supplier cannot deliver to an address they cannot see.
Businesses you have not connected to
Your mobile number is how anyone finds you. A signed-in user who already knows your registered number can look up your profile before sending you a connection request — and that lookup returns the profile in full, including your email address, delivery address and GST number, not only your name and business. Being findable by a number is what lets a supplier or shop you already deal with offline connect to you here; we would rather tell you plainly that the lookup is not partial.
What a lookup does not reach: your orders. Those are readable only by the two businesses named on them, connected or not.
A supplier's catalogue and published delivery dates are visible to any signed-in user. They carry product names, units and photos, and no prices.
Nobody can browse or download a list of everyone registered. Profiles are reachable one at a time, by a number the person looking already has — there is no directory, no search by name or area, and no way to enumerate accounts.
Service providers
The app runs on Google Firebase. Your data is stored and processed by Google Cloud services on our behalf — Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions, Cloud Messaging and Crashlytics. Data is held in Google's asia-south1 (Mumbai) region. See Firebase's privacy documentation.
Nobody else
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data. We do not share it for advertising or marketing by anyone. We will disclose data only where the law requires it.
4 Notifications
The app sends push notifications for:
- a reminder about an hour before orders close on a delivery date you have not ordered against
- a supplier sending your order out for delivery
- a supplier asking you directly to place an order
- an order closed automatically because its delivery date has passed
You can turn notifications off at any time in your Android settings. The app works without them.
5 How your data is protected
- All traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit over HTTPS.
- Access is enforced by Firebase Security Rules. Orders are readable only by the two businesses named on them. Profiles cannot be listed or exported in bulk by anyone — they are reachable only one at a time, by account id. Your mobile number, user type and account id cannot be altered from the app.
- Actions that affect another person — sending them a notification, dispatching a delivery day, deleting an account — run on our servers, not on the device, so they can be checked before they happen.
- Nothing is stored on your device beyond what is needed while the app is open. The app is online-only and does not keep a copy of your business data after you close it.
6 How long we keep it
- Your profile — until you delete your account.
- Orders — kept as a record of what two businesses agreed, including after one side deletes their account. See section 7.
- Crash reports — retained by Firebase Crashlytics on its own schedule (typically 90 days).
7 Deleting your account
You can delete your account from inside the app: Account → Delete Account. You will be asked to confirm, and the deletion is immediate and permanent.
What is deleted
- Your profile and all business details
- Your profile photo and any catalogue item photos
- Your connections to every trading partner
- Your catalogue and published delivery dates, if you are a supplier
- Your activity log
- Your sign-in credential — your mobile number is released for a fresh registration
What is kept, and why
Orders are not deleted. An order is a shared business record of what two parties agreed. Your trading partner has the same claim on their copy of it as you have to be forgotten, and erasing it would rewrite their books. Your name and contact number remain on those past orders so the other side can still read their own history. Nothing else of yours survives, and you will not appear anywhere in the app as a contactable business.
If you cannot access the app, email sumitsharma8897@gmail.com from your registered address, or phone the number in section 1, and we will delete the account for you. We aim to action requests within 30 days.
Full deletion instructions8 Your rights
You can, at any time:
- See your data — all of it is visible in the app under My Profile and your order history
- Correct it — edit your details from My Profile
- Delete it — see section 7
- Request a copy — email us and we will send you an export
- Withdraw consent — turn off notifications, or delete your account entirely
