Last updated: 3 September 2026

Adjungle.pk (“Adjungle.pk”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the Adjungle.pk website (https://adjungle.pk) and the Adjungle.pk mobile application (together, the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. By using the Service, you agree to the practices described here.

If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the Service.

1. Who We Are

Adjungle.pk is a free online classified-ads platform based in Pakistan that allows individuals and businesses to post, browse, and respond to advertisements for goods and services across Pakistani cities.

For any privacy-related questions or requests, you can contact us at: contactus@adjungle.pk

2. Information We Collect

We only collect information needed to operate and improve the Service.

Information you provide to us:

• Account details such as your name, email address, and phone number when you register or sign in.
• Sign-in information when you choose to log in using Google, Facebook, email, or phone (OTP) authentication.
• The content of the ads you post, including titles, descriptions, prices, photos, and the location or city you select for the ad.
• Messages you send through our in-app chat to other users.
• Any information you provide when you contact our support team.

Information collected automatically:

• Device information such as device model, operating system, unique device identifiers, and app version.
• A mobile advertising identifier (for example, the Android Advertising ID / AAID), used for advertising and analytics as described below.
• Usage and diagnostic information, such as which screens you view, features you use, search terms you enter, crash reports, and general performance data.
• Approximate or, with your permission, precise location information, used to show you ads and listings relevant to your area. You can control location access through your device settings.

Information from third-party sign-in providers:

• When you sign in with Google or Facebook, we receive basic profile information (such as your name and email) from those providers, in accordance with their permissions and your privacy settings.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Create and manage your account and authenticate you when you sign in.
• Publish and display the ads you post, and show you relevant listings based on your selected location.
• Enable communication between buyers and sellers through in-app chat.
• Send you notifications you have opted into, such as chat messages and relevant listing alerts.
• Display advertising within the app (see Section 5).
• Analyze usage, diagnose crashes, and improve the performance, features, and safety of the Service.
• Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and violations of our terms.
• Comply with applicable legal obligations.

4. Third-Party Services We Use

We rely on trusted third-party services to operate the app. These providers process certain data on our behalf or in accordance with their own privacy policies:

• Google Firebase (Analytics, Cloud Messaging for push notifications, and Crashlytics for crash reporting) — https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
• Google AdMob (advertising) — see Section 5
• Google Maps (displaying maps and location features) — https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Facebook / Meta (Facebook Login and app analytics) — https://www.facebook.com/policy.php
• Google Sign-In (authentication) — https://policies.google.com/privacy

5. Advertising and Google AdMob

We use Google AdMob, a mobile advertising service provided by Google, to display advertisements in the app.

• AdMob and its partners may collect and use certain information — including your device’s advertising identifier (such as the Android Advertising ID), IP address, and general usage data — to serve and measure ads, including personalized ads where permitted.
• Google’s use of advertising data is governed by Google’s own policies. You can learn how Google uses information from apps that use its services here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
• For more information about AdMob and to understand Google’s advertising practices, see https://support.google.com/admob/answer/6128543.

Your ad choices: You can limit ad personalization or reset your advertising identifier at any time through your device settings (for example, on Android: Settings → Google → Ads). Opting out of personalized ads does not remove ads, but the ads you see may be less relevant to you.

6. How We Share Information

We are not in the business of selling your personal information. We share information only in these limited circumstances:

• Publicly, as part of your ads: Information you include in an ad (such as description, photos, price, city, and any contact method you choose to display) is visible to other users of the Service. Please do not include sensitive personal information in your public ads.
• With service providers: The third-party services listed in Section 4, which process data on our behalf to provide their functionality.
• For legal reasons: When we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, enforce our terms, prevent fraud or abuse, or protect the rights, safety, or property of Adjungle.pk, our users, or the public.
• In a business transfer: If Adjungle.pk is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user information may be transferred, subject to this Privacy Policy.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including the use of secure (SSL/TLS encrypted) connections for data transmission. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your account password confidential.

8. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize it.

9. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or update the personal information we hold about you.
• Request deletion of your account and associated personal information.
• Control app permissions (such as location, camera, and notifications) through your device settings.
• Adjust or reset your advertising identifier as described in Section 5.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contactus@adjungle.pk. You can also delete your account directly from within the app (in the app: Account → Account options → Delete account).

10. Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 18, you should use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at contactus@adjungle.pk and we will take steps to delete it.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you through the Service. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

Adjungle mobile app – additional disclosures (September 2026)

The Adjungle.pk app for Android (Google Play, package pk.adjungle.app) and iOS (App Store) uses the following in addition to what is described above:

• Phone verification by SMS. If you sign in or verify your number with a one-time code, your mobile number is sent to our SMS provider (Twilio) solely to deliver the code. Codes expire within minutes. We store your number on your profile so buyers can contact you and so we can recognise your account.
• Location and area search. With your permission, the app uses your device location to show ads near you and to label your current area (for example “Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi”). Coordinates are sent to Google Maps Platform (Places and Geocoding) to resolve area names and to our servers to rank ads by distance. You can turn location off in your device settings at any time and choose a city or area manually instead.
• Advertising and consent. The app shows ads through Google AdMob. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland we use Google’s User Messaging Platform to ask for your consent before ads are requested. Everywhere, the in-app privacy choice lets you limit ads to non-personalised ones. Google may use your device’s advertising identifier as described in Google’s advertising policy.
• Crash and diagnostics data. We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports and diagnostic information (device model, OS version, the screen you were on, and your user id if signed in) so we can fix problems. This data is not used for advertising.
• Push notifications. With your permission we send notifications about messages, your ads, ads in your city, and a one-time reminder if you start posting an ad and do not finish. You can turn each type off under Account → Notification settings, or in your device settings.
• On-device data. Your recently viewed ads, privacy choices and sign-in session are stored only on your device. Clearing the app’s data or using “Clear” in Recently viewed removes them.
• Contacting sellers. Call and WhatsApp buttons open your phone’s dialler or the WhatsApp app with the seller’s number; we do not see those conversations.

Deleting your account. In the app go to Account → Account options → Delete account, or use the form at adjungle.pk/delete-account. See that page for what is removed and how long it takes.
