Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Betfien Technologies ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects your information when you use Servia (the "App") on Android and iOS. By using the App you agree to this policy.
Servia helps you find, book, and pay for trusted local services, and lets you post tasks that nearby professionals can accept. To connect you with providers, coordinate the service, and process payment, the app processes your location, the details of your request, messages, and payment-related information.
Information we collect
- Account information — Examples: Email address, name, phone number, and sign-in identifiers. Purpose: To create and secure your account and manage your requests.
- Location data — Examples: Precise device location and the service address you provide. Purpose: To find and dispatch nearby providers, coordinate arrival, and display service on a map.
- Request & service content — Examples: Tasks and bookings you post, photos, notes, offers, and status updates. Purpose: To match you with providers and fulfill and document the service.
- Messages — Examples: Chat messages exchanged between you and a provider about a request. Purpose: To let you and the provider coordinate the service and resolve issues.
- Payment information — Examples: Transaction amounts and status. Card details are entered into and handled by Stripe. Purpose: To process payments and issue receipts. We do not store full card numbers.
- Provider identity verification — Examples: For service providers only: identity documents and verification results. Purpose: To verify professionals (KYC) so the marketplace stays safe and trustworthy.
- Device & diagnostic data — Examples: Device model, OS version, app version, push token, and crash logs. Purpose: To deliver notifications, keep the app secure and stable, and fix problems.
Device permissions
The app requests the following permissions at the point of use. You can grant or revoke them at any time in your device settings; some features may not work without them.

Account & data deletion
You can request deletion of your account and personal data at any time from within the app, or by emailing [email protected]. See the dedicated page: /apps/servia/delete-account.
