DATA HANDLING PRACTICES

Six Ways We Protect and Respect Your Data

From the moment you open an account on y56, a set of concrete practices governs every piece of data we touch.

Cookies and Tracking

We use session cookies to keep you logged in and analytics cookies to understand page performance. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings; disabling analytics cookies does not affect your account access.

Account Security

Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms and never stored in plain text. We prompt you to update your password if our systems detect login activity from an unrecognised device or location.

Payment Data Handling

When you pay via UPI, Paytm or PhonePe, we store only the transaction reference and masked identifiers — never your full UPI PIN or wallet credentials. Payment processor logs are retained for the period required by applicable financial regulations.

Data Retention

Account data is kept for as long as your account is active and for the legally required period after closure. Once that period lapses, we delete or anonymise your personal records. You can request early deletion where the law allows.

Third-Party Access

We share data with payment processors (such as UPI networks and Paytm), fraud-prevention services, and regulators only when legally required or strictly necessary for operating your account. We do not sell data to marketers.

Requesting Changes

To correct, export or delete your data, contact us via email or the Help Centre ticket system. We will verify your identity, confirm the action in writing, and complete it within 30 days where technically and legally possible.

Your Privacy Policy Questions, Addressed

The questions below cover the scenarios that account holders ask about most often — from what data we hold to how you can have it removed. If your question is not listed here, reach out to us through any support channel and our privacy team will respond within the timeframes described above.

We collect your name, email address, phone number, date of birth for age verification, and the payment identifiers you use — such as your UPI handle or Paytm registered number. We also log your device type and IP address for security purposes.

We share data only with payment processors (UPI networks, Paytm, PhonePe), fraud detection services, and legal or regulatory authorities when required. We do not share your data with advertisers or unrelated commercial third parties.

Submit a data-access request via email or a Help Centre ticket. Include your registered email address so we can verify your identity. We will compile and deliver a copy of your data within 30 days of confirming your identity.

Yes. You can request deletion through the Help Centre or via email. We will remove your personal data once the legally mandated retention period for financial and account records has passed. We will confirm the deletion date in writing.

Transaction records linked to UPI, Paytm and PhonePe payments are kept for the period required by applicable financial regulations in India. After that period, records are deleted or anonymised so they can no longer be linked to your identity.

We use functional cookies (required for login sessions) and analytics cookies (to understand site usage). Analytics cookies can be disabled in your browser settings without affecting your account. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles.

Contact our privacy team directly via email or live chat. If you feel your concern has not been resolved satisfactorily, you may also escalate to the relevant data protection authority in your jurisdiction under applicable Indian privacy law.
