Privacy Policy

Last updated: 21 / 10 / 2026

This policy explains what data we collect when you use SourcelyDZ, how we use it, and who we share it with.

1. Data we collect

Account data: name, email address, phone number, and sign-in method (email or Google account).

Subscription data: your status, expiry date, and search credits. Your bank card details never pass through our servers and are not stored by us.

Usage data: the searches you run (text or image), products you open, contact clicks to wholesalers, the categories you choose, and your saved alerts.

Technical data: browser and device type, IP address, and pages visited.

WhatsApp verification data: when you confirm your account with a WhatsApp message, we keep your phone number and an identifier WhatsApp gives your account with us alone. The number is used to contact you about your account and our offers; the identifier is used to stop one person opening several free trials. We keep a scrambled fingerprint of it that cannot be turned back into the number. We do not keep the text of your message — we read only the confirmation code out of it. If WhatsApp does not pass us your number, which happens for anyone using a username, we ask you to type it yourself.

2. Why we use this data

To run the service: signing you in, giving access to the catalog according to your plan, running searches, and sending your alerts.

To improve the platform: understanding what merchants search for and refining results and categories.

To communicate with you: answering your questions, informing you about your account and subscription, and telling you about offers and new features. Your phone number is used for these two purposes: support and promotional offers.

To measure our advertising performance and understand which channels merchants find us through.

To keep the free trial fair: when you sign up and when you start a trial, we record scrambled fingerprints of your email, phone number, WhatsApp account, browser and network. They let us recognise the same person opening several free trials, and they cannot be turned back into your details.

3. Where data is stored and how it is protected

Data and the platform are hosted on our own servers at Google Cloud in the European Union (Paris, France), and product images are stored on Cloudflare R2. Visits pass through Cloudflare, which protects the site.

Connections are encrypted and database access is governed by rules that prevent one user from reading another's data. No online service can guarantee absolute security.

4. Third-party services

Payments: Whop (international cards) and Chargily (Algerian CIB and EDAHABIA cards). These providers receive payment data directly under their own privacy policies.

AI: Google Gemini for analyzing images and text during search and product classification.

Analytics and ad measurement: PostHog for product analytics, plus Meta Pixel and TikTok Pixel to measure advertising performance. These advertising tools run on public pages only. When you start a trial (free or paid) or pay, we also send Meta and TikTok a scrambled version of your email, phone number and account, together with the advertising identifiers from the advert you arrived through, so they can tell which advert led to the subscription. They also receive the same scrambled details when you sign up and when you choose a plan, and if you are signed in, their pixels (Meta Pixel and TikTok Pixel) on these public pages receive them too. Meta also receives a scrambled version of your name. With these events we send Meta and TikTok your IP address and your browser's name and version, which they use to measure adverts; we keep only the latest of each. Meta and TikTok cannot read your email, number or name from the scrambled version.

Error tracking: Sentry for technical errors, which may include your account's email so a problem can be traced to it.

WhatsApp: Meta's WhatsApp Business service, which delivers the verification message you send us and our reply to it.

Image search: Upstash, which receives a numeric summary of the photos you search with — not the photos themselves.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

We use necessary cookies to keep you signed in and to remember preferences such as language and theme.

We also set one cookie of our own that identifies this browser to us. It holds a random value — nothing about your device — and is used only to recognise repeat free-trial accounts.

We also use analytics and advertising-measurement cookies through the services listed above, which may be used to show personalized advertising. You can manage cookies in your browser; disabling necessary cookies will prevent sign-in.

6. Data sharing

We do not sell your personal data.

We do not share your account data with wholesalers. When you contact a wholesaler through an external app, whatever you choose to tell them is your decision and is governed by that app's policy.

We share only what is necessary with the providers listed above in order to operate the platform, and may disclose data where the law requires it.

7. Your rights

You can view and edit your data from the Settings page, and delete your account yourself from there at any time — or write to us and we will do it.

You can ask to stop receiving promotional messages while keeping your account.

8. Retention

We keep your data for as long as your account exists. When you delete your account, your personal data is removed. Two things are kept: records needed for accounting or the law, and the scrambled fingerprints described in section 2 — without them, deleting an account and signing up again would give the same person another free trial. They cannot be turned back into your details.

9. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated; the date appears at the top of the page. We will let you know if changes are material.
