TRUST & PRIVACY

Trust, by design.

How TenantTale approaches transparency, participation, and long-term trust.

Built around trust

Trust comes from structure, not promises. These principles guide how TenantTale is designed.

01

Mutual Participation

Both renters and landlords contribute to reliability. No one-sided narratives, no anonymous reviews, no unverified claims. Every interaction requires mutual acknowledgment.

02

Transparent Scoring

Users can understand what affects their score, how reliability builds over time, and why changes happen. No black boxes. Clarity is the foundation.

03

Structural Balance

TenantTale is designed for both sides of the rental relationship. Fairness is structural — built into how scores work, how feedback flows, and how disputes are resolved.

04

Calm by Design

No urgency-driven notifications, no manipulative patterns, no dark UX. TenantTale is built to be respectful of your time and attention — trust emerges through consistency, not pressure.

Your privacy rights

You have full control over your data. Export it, update it, or delete it — anytime.

01

Right to Access

Export a complete copy of your personal data at any time — in JSON or PDF format. Your profile, scores, connections, feedback, disputes, and activity history.

02

Right to Rectification

Update your profile information at any time. Manage your data processing preferences through in-app consent controls, in compliance with GDPR and CCPA.

03

Right to Erasure

Request deletion of your account and all associated data. A 30-day grace period lets you cancel if you change your mind. After that, deletion is permanent.

04

Right to Object

Contact us about data processing concerns at any time. Optional processing like payment history, feedback, and matching can be toggled individually in the app.

How we protect your data

Security is technical. Trust is intentional. We invest in both.

01

Encryption at Rest

AES-256 encryption protects all stored personal data. Biometric data never leaves your device. Backups and logs are encrypted to the same standard.

02

Encryption in Transit

All data transmitted between your device and our servers uses TLS 1.3 — the latest transport layer security protocol. No data travels unprotected.

03

Regulatory Compliance

TenantTale is designed with FCRA, GDPR, and CCPA/CPRA requirements in mind — from score history retention to consumer disclosure rights.

04

Access Controls

Role-based access controls limit who can view data internally. Authentication uses OAuth 2.0, and biometric verification never leaves your device.
