Privacy Policy
Version 2026-08-draft · last updated August 2026
This wording is a working draft
It has not been reviewed by a lawyer and is not the final agreement. It is published so the signup flow can be built and tested. Do not rely on it.
What we collect
For every account: name, email address and password (stored only as a hash, never in readable form). For Taskers we also collect a phone number, service city, the skills offered and their rates, work photos, and the area they are willing to travel to.
What we deliberately do not store
We do not store Social Security numbers, dates of birth, or background-check report contents. Screening is performed by a third-party consumer reporting agency; identifying details are entered on their system, not ours. We keep only their decision and a reference to it.
We do not store card numbers. Payments are processed by Stripe, and we hold only their identifiers for a transaction.
Location
A Tasker's home location is used to calculate the area they cover. Only the coverage area is published — never the address or exact coordinates. Clients searching by ZIP code are matched against that coverage area.
What other people can see
A verified Tasker's public profile shows their name, city, skills, rates, work photos, reviews and coverage area. Phone numbers and email addresses are not published; they are shared with the other party only once a booking is confirmed. Reviewers are shown as a first name and last initial.
We email you to confirm your address, and about bookings and invoices. Confirmation links expire after 24 hours and can only be used once.
Your data
You can ask us for a copy of your data or for your account to be deleted: support@beshandyman.com. Some records tied to completed bookings may be retained where we are required to keep them.
