Privacy Policy

01 — Who We Are

Oderela is a local commerce and delivery platform based in Northern Pakistan. We connect customers with local outlets and facilitate doorstep delivery. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

02 — What Information We Collect

We only collect what is strictly necessary to fulfil your order and provide support:

• Your name and phone number
• Your delivery address
• Your order details — items, quantities, and total
• Any notes or special instructions you include with your order

We do not collect payment card details. All transactions are cash on delivery.

We do not collect your location automatically, use tracking cookies, or ask for any information beyond what is needed to deliver your order.

If you create an Oderela account we additionally hold your email address and saved delivery addresses, so you can reorder without retyping them. See our Cookie Policy for what is stored in your browser.

03 — How We Use Your Information

Your information is used solely for:

• Processing and fulfilling your order
• Coordinating with the outlet and rider assigned to your delivery
• Contacting you if there is an issue with your order
• Resolving disputes or complaints
• Improving our service and delivery coverage

We do not use your information for advertising, marketing to third parties, or automated profiling.

04 — Who We Share Your Information With

To deliver your order, we share the minimum necessary information with:

• The outlet fulfilling your order, so they can prepare it correctly
• The rider delivering your order, so they can reach your address

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party outside the scope of delivering your order. We do not work with advertising networks, data brokers, or analytics companies that would access your personal data.

05 — Data Storage & Security

Your order data is stored securely on our servers. We take reasonable precautions to protect your information from unauthorised access, including secure connections (HTTPS) and access controls.

We retain order data for operational and support purposes. If you would like your data deleted, you can request this by contacting us directly.

06 — Cookies & Browser Storage

Our website uses your browser's local storage to keep your cart items saved between visits. This data stays entirely on your device and is never sent to our servers unless you place an order.

We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking pixels, or analytics tools that identify you personally. Cookies and browser storage are covered in full in our Cookie Policy.

07 — Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your data
• Withdraw consent for us to hold your data — note that this may prevent us from supporting past orders

To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected]. We will respond within 3 business days.

08 — Children's Privacy

Our service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted an order without parental knowledge, please contact us and we will delete the information promptly.

09 — Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our service grows. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top. Continued use of Oderela after any changes means you accept the updated policy. We will never change this policy in a way that reduces your privacy without clear notice.
