Privacy Policy

Dhandha Bazar ("we", "our" or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard your information when you visit dhandhabazar.com and use our B2B marketplace services.

1. Information we collect

Personal information: when you register, post requirements, send inquiries or contact us, we collect your name, email address, phone number, company name and business details.

Technical data: to protect the site against abuse we keep a keyed, one-way hash of your IP address with form submissions and security events — never the address itself. We do not use analytics or advertising trackers.

Transaction data: details of inquiries submitted, requirements posted and supplier listings on our platform.

2. How we use your information

To facilitate B2B connections between buyers and suppliers
To send inquiry and account notifications
To review supplier profiles and products, and to verify supplier identity
To improve our platform and services
To prevent fraud and abuse, and to comply with legal obligations

3. Information sharing

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. Approved supplier profiles and products (company name, business details, product listings) are public — this is core to how the marketplace works. A supplier's GST number, email and phone are not shown publicly.

When you send an inquiry about a product, your name, email, phone and message are shared with that product's supplier so they can respond. The contact details on a buying requirement are never published; our team uses them to connect you with matching suppliers. We do not share your details with unrelated parties.

4. Data security

HTTPS (TLS) encryption for all data in transit
Passwords stored only as strong one-way hashes (Argon2id or bcrypt) — never in plain text
Server credentials encrypted at rest with XChaCha20-Poly1305
Access controls, rate limiting and anti-automation checks on every form and API
An audit log of sign-ins and administrative actions

5. Cookies

We use one essential cookie to keep you signed in and to protect forms against cross-site attacks. We do not use third-party tracking or advertising cookies.

6. Your rights

Under applicable Indian data protection laws, you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion of your account and associated data, and opt out of marketing communications. To exercise these rights, email us at .

7. Data retention

We keep your account data for as long as your account is active. After account deletion, personal data is purged within 30 days. Leads, contact messages, product inquiries and closed buying requirements are deleted automatically after 3 years.

8. Children's privacy

Dhandha Bazar is a B2B platform intended for business users aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect information from individuals under 18.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Significant changes will be communicated by email or a prominent notice on the platform. Continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
