Last updated: 30 October 2026
FireKarrt Technologies Pvt. Ltd. (“FireKarrt”, “we”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal data we collect when you use the FireKarrt website and app, why we collect it, and the choices and rights you have under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (“DPDP Act”).
1. Data we collect
- Account data: mobile number (used for OTP login), and optionally your name and email.
- Delivery data: saved addresses, pincode, landmark, delivery instructions and recipient phone.

- Order data: items purchased, amounts, coupons used, order status history and delivery OTP confirmations.
- Payment data: payments are processed by our licensed payment partners. We receive a transaction reference and status, never your full card, UPI PIN or bank credentials.
