Trust & Privacy

How Mallish handles your data

This page is maintained by the Mallish team to answer common questions about security and privacy on Mallish. It describes the controls currently enabled in the app and is not an independent certification or audit.

Accounts & authentication

Sign-in is handled by our managed authentication provider. Passwords are never stored by Mallish in plain text, and sessions are scoped per device.

You can sign out at any time from your account menu. Contact us to request account deletion.

Data we collect

  • Account details you provide (name, email, profile preferences).
  • Items you save, vote on, or interact with inside Mallish.
  • Activity used to personalize your in-app experience.

We do not sell your personal information.

How your data is protected

User data is stored in a managed database with row-level access controls so that only you (and Mallish administrators where needed) can read or modify your records.

Uploaded images (for example Item Vote photos) are stored privately and served through short-lived access links scoped to active polls.

Data is transmitted over HTTPS between your device and Mallish.

User-generated content & moderation

Item Vote photos are scanned by an automated moderation step before being published. Anyone can report content; reviewed reports may result in removal of the post and, for repeat violations, restrictions on the account that uploaded it.

Third-party services

Mallish relies on a small number of vendors to operate the app, including our hosting and authentication provider, our database and storage provider, and our payment processor for paid features. These vendors process data only as needed to deliver the service.

Cookies & analytics

Mallish uses cookies and local storage strictly necessary for sign-in, preferences, and remembering items you save. We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate product usage.

Your choices

  • Update your profile from the My Details page.
  • Remove wishlist items and shop favorites at any time from your account.
  • Contact us to request a copy or deletion of your data.

Contact

Questions, privacy requests, or security reports: please reach the Mallish team through the contact options inside the app. We aim to respond promptly.

Mallish does not claim ownership of these marks and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of the stores or brands listed unless explicitly stated.
