DATA HANDLING PRACTICES

How We Protect and Manage Your Information

We apply specific, documented practices to every stage of how your data moves through our systems — from the moment you enter a UPI ID to the point we delete inactive account…

Encrypted Storage

All personal data — including UPI IDs, Paytm wallet details and PhonePe numbers — is stored using AES-256 encryption. Encryption keys are rotated on a scheduled basis and access is restricted to authorised personnel only.

Cookie Policy

We use strictly necessary cookies to keep your session active and functional cookies to remember your payment preference. You can manage or reject non-essential cookies through the cookie settings panel in your account dashboard.

Account Security

Two-factor authentication via mobile OTP is available on every 5zee account. We log all login attempts and flag unusual access patterns — such as a new device or unfamiliar location — and notify you by SMS or email within minutes.

Data Retention Schedule

We hold active account data for as long as your account is open. Once you request closure, we retain only the minimum records required by local law for the statutory period, after which all personal data is permanently deleted from our systems.

Third-Party Sharing

We share your data only with payment processors — such as the UPI gateway, Paytm and PhonePe infrastructure partners — strictly to complete your transactions. We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data to marketing companies or data brokers.

Data Correction Requests

You can request a correction to any personal data we hold at any time. Submit the request via live chat or the in-account form, confirm your identity through OTP, and we will update the record within five working days and confirm the change to you.

We share payment details only with the gateway providers — UPI networks, Paytm and PhonePe infrastructure — strictly to process your transactions. No marketing company, data broker or unrelated third party receives your payment data.

We notify affected account holders by SMS and email as soon as a breach is confirmed, detail what data was involved, and advise the steps to secure your account. We also report incidents to the relevant authority as required by local law.
