Privacy Policy

Barak Kavach will handle some of the most sensitive information a person can share — where they are, what is happening to them, and who they trust. The policy governing that is being written with legal review, and is not finished.

What this document will cover

  • 01What data is collected when someone sends a signal, and what is optional.
  • 02Exactly who can see an incident report, and for how long it is retained.
  • 03Why there is no public incident feed, and why there never will be.
  • 04How location data is stored, when it is deleted, and who can access it.
  • 05What happens to a trusted contact’s number, and how they can be removed.
  • 06How volunteer identity documents are verified, stored, and destroyed.
  • 07The lawful basis for processing, and how to request deletion of your data.
  • 08Which third-party processors are used (payments, hosting, messaging) and what they receive.

We would rather show an empty page than publish a policy we have not actually written and cannot yet honour. This page will be replaced with the real document before the pilot accepts its first report.

Important: Barak Kavach is a communication and coordination platform. It does not replace police, ambulance, fire, hospital, or official emergency services.
