EarnRoom is built to work on the smallest amount of personal information that still lets storage happen safely between two people. This page describes the data the product actually handles today, including public-site measurement, accounts, bookings, uploaded photos and AI-assisted estimates.
Our analytics are first-party: the measurement is ours, the data stays in our own systems, and there is no advertising network, no third-party tracking script and no data sold or shared for marketing. We can't see what you do on other websites, and we don't try to.
We don't build a device fingerprint and we don't try to recognise you across devices or browsers. The only reference we hold for an anonymous visit is an opaque random value stored in your own browser, which rotates every 30 days. It carries no meaning on its own and isn't linked to anything about you.
A page view records the page path with identifiers and query parameters stripped out, the website you arrived from (the site name only, never the full link), any campaign tag in the link you clicked, and a coarse device type — mobile, tablet or desktop. It does not record free text, photos, addresses or postcodes.
If you create an account, the product stores the information needed to provide the marketplace: your account and profile details, inventory, space listings, messages, bookings, payment records and support activity where you use those features. Hosts see the information needed to consider a request; a host does not receive a renter's private photos or item-level inventory unless the product explicitly shows a relevant summary.
EarnRoom stores listing photos, inventory photos, host space-scan photos and booking-evidence photos in private storage areas. The product uses short-lived signed links when a permitted user needs to view them. When you ask for an AI scan or visualisation, the selected images are sent to a third-party AI service to return an estimate or proposal. AI output is not a confirmed measurement or decision, and photos are not used as analytics data or sold for advertising.
Granular anonymous analytics events are removed after 400 days. Reporting is bucketed in Europe/London time. Uploaded photos, account records, messages, bookings and payment records follow their product lifecycle and any applicable operational or legal requirements; a single universal retention period for those records has not been confirmed here and must be reviewed before launch.
A unique visitor is a browser that carried the same rotating first-party reference during the period. The reference rotates every 30 days and is not shared across devices or browsers, so this is an approximation of reach — not a count of individual people.
If your browser sends a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal, we don't measure your visit at all and nothing is stored in your browser for analytics. Browser storage can also be cleared at any time; doing so may sign you out or remove local conveniences such as recent searches.
The product has not yet published a complete request workflow, named legal entity, universal retention schedule, lawful-basis statement or international-transfer statement. Those details, including how access, correction and deletion requests will be handled, need qualified UK privacy advice and confirmation from the service owner before public launch. This page must not be read as a claim that a legal review or compliance assessment has happened.
EarnRoom can publish its own marketing videos to a YouTube channel that an authorised EarnRoom operator connects. That connection uses Google OAuth. This section states exactly what Google user data EarnRoom accesses, how it is used, who it is shared with, and how it is protected.
EarnRoom requests two YouTube permissions and nothing else:
Google user data obtained through OAuth is used solely to provide the YouTube connection and publishing feature the authorised user asked for. The workflow is:
EarnRoom does not sell Google user data. EarnRoom does not use Google user data for advertising, advertising profiling, audience building, credit assessment, or any purpose unrelated to the YouTube connection you authorised. EarnRoom does not use Google user data to train, retrain or improve AI or machine-learning models, and does not transfer Google user data to any AI service.
The sharing position is deliberately narrow:
These protections are implemented in the production system today:
You stay in control of the connection:
EarnRoom's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Google user data is used only to provide and improve the YouTube connection and publishing feature that the user explicitly authorised; it is not transferred to others except as needed to provide that feature, to comply with applicable law, or as part of a merger or acquisition with prior notice. It is not used for advertising and no human reads it except with the user's consent, for security purposes, or where required by law. This is a description of how EarnRoom operates; it is not a claim that any Google review or certification has been completed.
To ask us to delete your data, follow the data deletion instructions. Privacy questions can be sent to businesstornado3@gmail.com.
This page describes how the product actually behaves today. It is a plain-English explanation, not a legal notice: the wording, and our position under UK data protection and PECR requirements, still needs review by a qualified adviser before launch. Nothing here should be read as confirmation that such a review has taken place.
