Geggeo ("we", "us") connects customers with local independent service providers in
Magsaysay, Misamis Oriental. This page explains what information we collect, why, and
how it's handled.
What we collect
- Account info: your name and email address, and a password (stored as a one-way hash — we never see or store it in plain text).
- Google account info (only if you sign up or log in with Google): your name, email, and profile photo, as shared by Google.
- Provider info (only if you register as a service provider): business name, phone number, barangay, service categories, a short bio, and an optional photo.
- Usage data: your IP address is used briefly to prevent abuse (e.g. limiting repeated login or sign-up attempts) — we don't keep a permanent log tied to your identity.
- Cookies: a session cookie keeps you logged in. We don't use advertising or tracking cookies.
How we use it
- To create and secure your account, including sending one-time verification codes by email.
- To show your provider listing (business name, phone, barangay, categories, bio, photo) to logged-in users browsing Geggeo, if you register as a provider.
- To let customers contact providers directly by call or message.
- To let our admin team verify provider listings and keep the directory accurate.
Customer account details are never shown publicly. Only provider listings
are visible to other logged-in users — and only once an admin has verified them.
Who we share it with
- Google — only if you choose to sign in with Google, to authenticate you.
- Gravatar — we check for a public profile photo linked to your email's hash, as a fallback avatar if you haven't uploaded one.
- Our email delivery provider — to send verification codes and password reset codes.
We don't sell your data to anyone, ever.
How we protect it
Passwords and verification codes are hashed before storage, sensitive actions (login,
registration, password reset) are rate-limited against abuse, and admin access to the
platform is role-restricted.
Your choices
You can ask us to correct or delete your account and associated data at any time by
contacting us below. Deleted accounts are removed from active use immediately; some
records may be retained briefly for fraud prevention and legal compliance before final
removal.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes in a meaningful way, we'll update the date at the top of this
page. Continued use of Geggeo after a change means you accept the updated policy.
