Privacy Policy

Last updated: 17 October 2026

Zuri is a rental management tool used by landlords to manage properties, tenants and rent. This page explains what information is handled and why.

What we collect

• Account details: name, email and a securely hashed password.
• Booking requests: if you ask to book a vacant unit, the name, phone number, email, move-in date and message you enter, which are shown only to the landlord.
• Tenancy records entered by the landlord: tenant name, phone number, ID number, unit, rent, deposit and move-in dates.
• Payments and repairs: amounts, dates, M-Pesa references, and maintenance requests.

How it is used

• To run the service: show balances, record payments, and let tenants view their own portal.
• To send SMS payment confirmations and reminders to tenants.

Who can see it

Landlords see the records for their properties. A tenant can only see their own portal. We do not sell personal information.

Service providers

Data is stored in a managed Redis database and hosted on Vercel. M-Pesa payments are received from Safaricom, and SMS is sent through Africa's Talking.

Cookies

Zuri uses one essential sign-in cookie. It keeps you signed in for up to 7 days and is not used for advertising.

Your rights

You can ask your landlord to correct or delete your records. Landlords are responsible for having a lawful basis to hold their tenants' information, including under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.
