About DaboRent
DaboRent is a rent and utilities management app for the tenants of a private residential property in Goa, India. It lets each tenant view their monthly rent, their share of the water and electricity bills (calculated from meter readings), their payment history, and pay conveniently by UPI. Reminders are sent via WhatsApp.
Operated by: Cordelia Boaventura Barreto (“the landlord”), owner of the property, Goa, India.

Get the app: DaboRent on Google Play
The app is private and invite-only: accounts are created by the landlord for her tenants. There is no public sign-up and no charge to tenants for using the app.
DaboRent (the “app”) is a private tenant–landlord management tool used by a small property owner (“the landlord”) to track rent, utility bills, and payments for their tenants (“you”, “the tenant”). This privacy policy explains what information the app collects, how it’s used, and your rights.
1. Who runs the app
The app is operated by Cordelia Boaventura Barreto, the landlord who invited you to it. Tenants are added by the landlord — there is no public sign-up. For privacy questions, contact your landlord directly or email fromme2007@gmail.com.
2. Information we collect
We collect only the information needed for the app to work:
| What | Why | Where it lives |
|---|---|---|
| Phone number | Your login identifier | Supabase Auth, encrypted at rest |
| Full name | So your landlord can identify you in the admin panel | Supabase database |
| Email address (optional) | Backup contact if you provide one | Supabase database |
| Room number + move-in date | Tracking your tenancy | Supabase database |
| Rent / utility / payment history | So you can see what you owe and what you’ve paid | Supabase database |
| Meter readings | Calculating utility bills fairly per room | Supabase database |
| 4-digit PIN (hashed) | Securing your login. Stored hashed via bcrypt — never visible to anyone, including the landlord, after you set it. | Supabase Auth |
| WhatsApp delivery receipts | Confirming reminders reached you | Supabase database |
| Crash and error logs (optional, via Sentry) | Diagnosing app issues | Sentry.io (anonymous unless you opt in) |
We do not collect: precise location, contacts, photos, microphone audio, browsing history, device identifiers for advertising, biometrics, or any data not listed above.
3. How we use the information
- Show you what you owe and your payment history in the app
- Send you WhatsApp reminders when a payment is due or overdue
- Prepare your UPI payment (amount and reference) when you choose to pay online
- Help your landlord manage the property (rooms, occupancy, utility bills, settlement)
- Diagnose technical problems if the app crashes (via Sentry, if enabled)
We do not:
- Sell your data to third parties
- Use it for advertising
- Share it with anyone other than your landlord, the service providers listed below, or as required by law
4. Third-party service providers
The app uses these vendors strictly to provide the service:
- Supabase (database, authentication, file storage) — EU region. See supabase.com/privacy.
- Meta WhatsApp Business Cloud API (sending payment reminders) — your phone number is shared with Meta only to deliver the message. See whatsapp.com/legal/business-policy.
- UPI (your own payment app) — when you tap “Pay now”, the payment is made directly from your UPI app (e.g. GPay, PhonePe, BHIM) to the landlord’s bank account. Your bank and UPI credentials stay entirely within your own payment app; DaboRent never sees or stores them. If a licensed payment provider is used in future for online payments, payment details will go directly to that provider and this policy will be updated to name it.
- Sentry (optional crash reporting) — see sentry.io/privacy.
- Google Play (app distribution + crash reporting) — see policies.google.com/privacy.
5. Data retention
- While you are a tenant: all information is retained.
- After you check out: your tenant record + payment history is retained for up to 7 years for accounting and tax purposes, then deleted on request.
- Login PIN: can be reset by your landlord at any time. PIN is hashed, never recoverable in plain text.
6. Your rights
You can:
- See what data we hold about you — ask your landlord, or email the contact below
- Correct anything inaccurate — name, phone, email
- Request deletion of your account after you’ve checked out and any outstanding charges are settled
- Withdraw consent to optional features (e.g. WhatsApp reminders) — tell your landlord
To exercise any of these, contact your landlord directly, or email the address below.
7. Children
The app is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
8. Security
- All connections use HTTPS / TLS
- Database access is gated by Row-Level Security policies — tenants can only see their own data
- Login PINs are stored hashed with bcrypt
- Payment information is never stored by DaboRent — payments travel directly between your UPI app and the bank
9. International users
The app stores data on Supabase’s EU servers. If you are using the app outside the EU, your data is transferred to and stored in the EU.
10. Changes to this policy
We’ll update this page if we change anything material. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the most recent revision.
