Privacy policy

Draft, to be reviewed by counsel before launch

TradeRepute collects the minimum information needed to operate a verified B2B reputation network. This page summarises how we handle it.

What we collect

  • Account data: name, email, optional phone number.
  • Verification data: identity details, business registration details and supporting documents, stored separately from ordinary application data and with its own retention period.
  • Evidence: commercial documents you upload to support a trade reference.
  • Payments: processed by Stripe. We keep transaction references, not card numbers.

How reviewer anonymity works

Reviews are anonymous to the public and to reviewed companies, but never to our compliance team. Published reference content is stored apart from reviewer identity, and uploaded evidence is private to you and authorized compliance staff.

Retention

Raw government ID copies, where collected, are scheduled for deletion after the verification decision. Other verification records are retained for compliance and fraud-prevention purposes.

Your rights

Contact us to access, correct or request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal and fraud-prevention obligations.
