Introduction

Servizing is an all-encompassing platform designed to enhance security and streamline community management with focus on safety, security, and convenience. Our diverse range of services includes:

  • Access Control: With Servizing, residents can seamlessly move in and out of the premises with automated boom-barriers at gates, parking slots and other access control devices placed at tower level for enhanced security.
  • Visitor Management: Our technology boosts security by enabling residents to manage visitor approvals. You can control who is allowed entry to your premises, enhancing overall safety.
  • Delivery Management: With Servizing, deliveries can be approved by the residents, allowing only authorised vendors to entre the premise. We’ve also partnered with eCommerce platforms to facilitate quicker and more secure entry for delivery personnel.
  • Daily Help Management: Residents receive notifications when their daily help (maids, cleaners, cooks, nannies) arrives. You can also track their attendance and manage gifts/payments. With AI in place, Servizing App provides recommendations to residents for new helps (if required) based on feedback and other parameters.
  • Security Alerts: In case of an emergency, residents can instantly alert security personnel with a single click on the app, ensuring rapid response.
  • Accounts & Payments Management: Servizing offers a comprehensive accounting module that simplifies financial management for Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs). Residents can conveniently pay various bills, including maintenance, electricity, water, and utilities, directly through the app.
  • Clubhouse Management & Amenities Booking: The management committee can use this feature to restrict clubhouse access to residents and guests, and facilitate booking for specific amenities.
  • Helpdesk and Communication: Our Communication Management tool allows the management committee to conduct opinion polls, send meeting invitations, and resolve resident complaints. Residents can also start discussions, post ideas, or provide feedback.

Servizing seamlessly integrates various community members—including residents, RWAs, facility management, security personnel, daily help, visitors, and service providers—through our app to improve both security and convenience.



Information Collected by Servizing

To provide you with exceptional service, Servizing collects various types of information through our app and website. The specifics of the information collected and its use depend on how you engage with our services and your privacy settings. For instance, basic Servizing services only require your flat details, name, and contact number. However, if your society uses advanced features like Gate management, Accounts and Payments, additional information may be needed.

Information Collected on Servizing:

  • Residents: We collect resident’s name, email address, mobile number, apartment number, tenant or owner status, vehicle number (if applicable), and any other optional details you choose to provide, such as photographs, reviews, content, posts, listings, payment information, and address book.
  • Vehicle Details: Vehicle details (like Registration Number, Model, Make, Vehicle Type) are collected if Resident Welfare Association (RWA) opts for Gate/Parking management. We may access publicly available data from RTOs and third-party services based on your vehicle registration number to offer additional services.
  • Guests: We collect the guest’s name and the resident’s flat they intend to visit. Additional guest information may be required by the RWA, such as phone numbers or photographs, but this is at the discretion of the RWA.
  • Service Providers: For service providers visiting society or individual homes, we collect the name, phone number, resident flat to be visited (if applicable), vehicle number (if applicable), entry/exit times, identity proof, visit purpose, and photographs. This information is collected for security purposes and may be required by the RWA and local regulations.
  • Additional Information: Financial details may also be needed for processing payments through our payment service providers, subject to their terms of use and privacy policies.

Information from Other Sources / Third Parties:

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Aarogya Setu Mobile App may be used to gain entry into societies or individual homes. The use of the Aarogya Setu App for entry is at the discretion of the respective RWAs.

We do not sell or trade user information. The data is used solely to enhance your experience on Servizing platforms. On occasion, we may share information with third-party partners, but only with your explicit consent.

Servizing’s services are an extension of those provided by the RWA of the society. RWA members may access information collected for their society on Servizing for recording and security purposes.

Our Security Measures:

  • Access Controls: Access to personal information is restricted to authorized employees and external contractors who need it to process services. Employees with such access are bound by stringent confidentiality agreements, and any breach of these obligations may result in serious consequences, including termination or legal action.
  • Encryption: All data transmitted to and from our app is protected using 256-bit HTTPS encryption. We use TLS encryption to secure data in transit, and data at rest is also encrypted to ensure its protection.
  • Server Security: We store information on servers equipped with state-of-the-art firewalls and require multiple layers of authentication for access. Unauthorized access is strictly prevented.
  • Regular Reviews: We continuously assess our information collection, storage, and processing practices, including physical security measures, to prevent unauthorized access to our systems.

Limitations and User Responsibilities:

While we employ these rigorous security measures, data transmission over the internet inherently involves some risk. We cannot assume liability for any unauthorized disclosure of information due to transmission errors or third-party access to our platforms or databases.

As a registered user, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account, including your login credentials and passwords. You should not share these credentials with anyone. If you suspect that your account credentials have been compromised or exposed, contact us immediately at info@Servizing.com.

Information Retention:

  • Visitor Information: Visitor data is retained for a period deemed necessary by the Resident Welfare Association (RWA) of your society. By default, Servizing retains visitor information for 180 days. However, the RWA has the option to adjust this retention period to 60 days, 120 days, or 180 days. Once this period expires, visitor information is deleted from our systems, and retrieval of past data is not possible.

Data Retention for Legal Purposes:

Certain data may be retained for longer periods when necessary for legal reasons, such as security, fraud prevention, or financial record-keeping.

Deletion Process:

When you request data deletion, we undertake a thorough process to ensure that your data is safely and completely removed from all our servers. This includes both active and backup systems to prevent accidental or malicious deletion. Please note that there may be a slight delay between your request and the final deletion as we verify the request's authenticity and complete the process.
