Privacy Policy
Welcome to SeniorVillageHub.com the trusted platform dedicated to connecting seniors aged 50 and above for safe and supportive house-sharing arrangements. Your privacy is of paramount importance to us. This comprehensive Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you register and participate on our website.
By becoming a member of SeniorVillageHub.com you agree to the terms outlined here regarding the collection and sharing of your personal information on our platform. Please read this policy carefully to understand your rights and responsibilities related to your privacy and data security.
1. Information We Collect
To provide a seamless house-sharing connection experience, we collect the following personal information directly from members during registration and ongoing use:
• Full name
• Physical address (down to Canton. Street and number are optional and those details are the choice and responsibility of the member to choose to share.)
• Email address
• Phone number (optional)
We collect this data in order to verify membership eligibility (age 50+), facilitate connections between members, and support communication about house sharing.
2. Use of Personal Information
The personal data you provide is used solely to support the core functions of our platform, including:
• Displaying members' physical addresses and email addresses within the members-only directory to facilitate house-sharing matches and communication,
• Enabling members to contact each other via email,
• Organising and promoting special events through our Groups feature, where members may meet in person,
• Verifying member identity and eligibility, and
• Improving and personalising the website services.
Please note: Your phone number is collected for administrative purposes and is not displayed publicly on the site.
3. Member Consent and Data Sharing
As a member, you explicitly consent to the public display of your physical address and email address on the members-only section of SeniorVillageHub.com to enable house sharing connections. This information is accessible only to registered members.
All other personal information, including phone numbers and any additional personal details you may share, will not be publicly posted on the website. Members wishing to exchange further information beyond email and physical address do so privately via their own email communication channels. We do not have access to or distribute this private correspondence.
4. Groups and Special Events
Our Groups feature allows members to organise and participate in special events designed to foster community and support. When joining or attending such events, your participation is managed in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Any personal data exchanged in relation to these events beyond publicly displayed contact information is handled privately between members.
5. Data Security and Protection
We implement rigorous security measures to safeguard your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption, secure servers, and regular monitoring of our systems.
Despite our best efforts, no internet platform can guarantee absolute security. We encourage members to exercise caution when sharing personal information, particularly in private communications off-site.
6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

You may choose to disable cookies in your browser settings; however, some features of the website may not function properly without them.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Our platform may use trusted third-party providers for hosting, email communication, or analytics under strict confidentiality agreements. These providers have no independent right to use your personal data beyond the services they provide to us.
