❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do blind broadcasts work on NutCast?

NutCast enables verified brokers to broadcast dry fruit lots, real-time almond prices, and spot offers to custom buyer groups. Unlike group chats, buyer identities and phone numbers are completely hidden from other participants, ensuring 100% buyer confidentiality.

How are my device contacts used?

Brokers may grant permission to access device contacts solely to select and invite known trade buyers to their broadcast groups. NutCast performs contact matching locally on-device and never uploads, scrapes, or sells your address book to third parties.

How do I receive live push notifications?

Ensure that notifications are enabled for NutCast in your iOS or Android device settings. You will receive real-time push alerts whenever brokers publish new lots or post rate amendments.

🔒 Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 3, 2026
Last Updated: October 3, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how NutCast ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application available on iOS and Android.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information: When signing in using Apple Sign-In or Google Sign-In, we receive your name and verified email address to authenticate your session and create your profile.
Profile & Role Data: During onboarding, users select their account role (Dry Fruit Broker or Buyer) and provide a business display name and optional business contact number.
Commodity Offers & Broadcast Content: Content submitted by verified brokers—including commodity types (e.g., California/Australian almonds), spot rates, consignment dates, and delivery terminals—is stored to display live feeds to authorized buyers.
Device Push Tokens: To deliver real-time offer alerts, we securely store device push tokens (APNs for iOS and FCM for Android) managed through Expo Application Services.
Contacts (Optional): If you grant contact permission (NSContactsUsageDescription), contacts are queried locally on your device to let brokers invite buyers to broadcast lists. We do not transmit your complete contact book to our servers.

2. How We Use Your Information

To provide real-time wholesale broadcast feeds and commodity rate tracking.
To notify buyers when relevant offers or price revisions are published.
To verify broker credentials and maintain platform trust.
To ensure blind broadcasting integrity where buyer identities remain confidential from other buyers.

3. Third-Party Service Providers

We work with trusted infrastructure providers solely to power core application services:

Firebase / Google Cloud: Secure database storage, authentication, and backend infrastructure.
Apple & Google: Secure single-sign-on identity verification.
Expo Application Services: Encrypted push notification delivery.

We never sell, rent, monetize, or disclose your personal data to data brokers, third-party marketers, or advertisers.

4. Data Security

All communication between the NutCast application and our backend is encrypted using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS/HTTPS). Data stored at rest is secured through enterprise-grade encryption (AES-256).

5. Data Retention & Account Deletion

We retain your data only for as long as your account remains active. In accordance with Apple App Store Guideline 5.1.1 and Google Play User Data policies, users have full control to permanently delete their account and associated data at any time.

How to Delete Your Account and Data:

Open the NutCast app.
Tap the Profile tab in the navigation bar.
Scroll to the bottom and select Delete Account.
Confirm the prompt. All your profile information, contact group mappings, and broadcast records will be permanently purged immediately.
