Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 8, 2026
YoTurf ("the app," "we," "us") is a turf/sports-ground booking app. This policy explains what information the app collects, why, and how it's handled.
Information we collect
To create your account and let you log in
- Phone numberRequired — used to send a one-time password (OTP) for login, via our SMS/voice gateway providers. Your phone number is your account identifier.
- Email addressOptional — collected when you sign in with Google or Apple, or when you choose to receive your one-time password (OTP) by email instead of SMS. Used to identify your account and to deliver login codes through our email provider. We never use it for marketing.
- NameRequired — shown on your bookings so the ground owner can identify who's arriving for a slot.
- Profile photoOptional — provided by you to personalize your profile.
To let you book a turf
- Booking details — turf selected, date, time slot, and payment status, stored against your account so you can view your booking history.
Payments
Payments are processed by Razorpay, a third-party payment gateway. We do not collect or store your card, UPI, or bank details ourselves — Razorpay handles that directly and provides us only a confirmation of payment success/failure.
Device permissions
YoTurf requests a small number of Android permissions, each tied to one specific feature — we don't request anything we don't use.
- CameraCAMERA — used only to scan the QR "Entry Pass" for a confirmed booking, for quick check-in at the turf. No photo or video is captured, saved, or transmitted.
- ContactsREAD_CONTACTSWRITE_CONTACTS — used only on the owner's dashboard, to quickly fill in a player's name and phone number when manually creating a booking. Read on-device only — we never upload or store your full contact list, only the one contact you choose to use for a booking.
- Photo libraryOptional — used to choose a profile photo, or (for owners) upload turf photos/video to their listing so players can view them in the app.
- Notifications — used to deliver a push notification token (see below) for booking alerts.
If you're a turf owner
- Push notification token — a device identifier used to notify turf owners of new bookings, via Expo's push notification service (which relays through Google's Firebase Cloud Messaging). Only collected for owner accounts.
How we use this information
Solely to operate the app: authenticate you, process and display bookings, process payments, show turf media, and (for owners) notify about new bookings. We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for advertising.
