5. Location Data
Location is used to show nearby or relevant listings, assist delivery coordination, and prefill address suggestions. You can disable location in system settings. Core functionality remains available (with manual input) unless expressly needed for a feature.
## 6. Push Notifications
You may opt in to receive push notifications (for example order updates and messages). You can opt out via your device’s notification settings at any time.
## 7. Media (Camera / Photos / Microphone)
Used strictly for creating and managing product listings (images/videos) and related marketplace content. Access is user‑initiated and limited to user‑selected items; we do not scan your entire gallery.
## 8. Data Sharing
We DO NOT sell personal data.
We may share with:
– Service providers acting on our behalf (hosting, analytics, crash reporting, messaging)
– Legal authorities when required by law
– Other users (limited profile/store information associated with listings)
## 9. Data Retention
We retain data while your account is active and as needed for legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. You may request deletion; some data (e.g., transaction records) may be retained as required by law.
## 10. Security
We implement technical and organizational measures (encryption in transit, access controls). No method is 100% secure; we encourage strong passwords and responsible session handling.
## 11. Your Rights
Depending on jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your data. Contact us at: suuqsapp@gmail.com or fugaas775@gmail.com

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or equivalent age of consent). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If discovered, we will delete such data.
## 13. International Transfers
Your information may be transferred and processed outside your country. We use safeguards (e.g., contractual clauses) where required.

Each service may collect or process data under its own privacy policies.
