About Saiiy and this policy

Saiiy connects cafés, restaurants and shops in Cairo with people ready to work by the shift. The venue posts the shift, the worker applies, and once accepted, the worker records their check-in and check-out from the app at the workplace.

This policy applies to the Saiiy app and to this website, and we update it whenever something changes in how the service works.

The data we collect

Everything below is either something you enter yourself or something that comes from your use of the service. We do not buy data from anyone.

  • Account details: your name, gender, email address, mobile number, date of birth, and account type (worker or venue).
  • Worker profile: a short bio, the roles you work in, your governorate and city, the pay you ask for, and a profile photo if you add one.
  • Venue profile: the business name and type, the workplace address, and its location on the map.
  • Identity verification: your national ID number, and two photos of your ID, front and back.
  • Shifts and applications: posted shifts, the applications to them, the message sent with an application, and the status of each application.
  • Check-in and check-out: the time you check in and check out, and your location at the moment you record it.
  • Messages: the conversation between the venue and the worker after acceptance, and any report about a message.
  • Ratings: the mutual rating between the worker and the venue after the shift ends.
  • Technical data: your IP address, your device token so that notifications reach you, and a log of important actions on your account.

Location

We use your location for one thing: to confirm that you are at the workplace when you check in or check out.

The app reads your location only at the moment you tap the check-in or check-out button. There is no continuous tracking, and no reading of your location in the background or while the app is closed. The permission we ask for is “While using the app” only, and we ask for it the first time you tap the button.

The location recorded at check-in and check-out is stored by us, even if the record is rejected, together with data from your device that helps us confirm the record is genuine.

The venue does not see your location; what it sees is that the shift has started. The workplace location is recorded by the venue owner themselves, from inside the venue. A worker who is accepted sees the venue’s name and address, and a link that opens it in maps.

What we use this data for

  • To open your account and keep it secure.
  • To show you shifts that suit your work and your city, and let you apply to them.
  • To let the venue post a shift, receive applications and choose from them.
  • To verify identity before a shift is posted or applied to.
  • To confirm check-in and check-out at the workplace.
  • To send you notifications and emails about your account and your shifts, such as email confirmation and password changes.
  • To protect the service from misuse.

We do not sell your data, we do not use it for advertising, and we do not share it with advertisers.

Who sees what

  • Your mobile number is never shared between the worker and the venue.
  • About an applicant, the venue sees: their name, their photo if there is one, their rating, their number of shifts, whether they have missed a shift before, their governorate and city, and the message they sent with their application.
  • About the venue, the worker sees: the business name, the workplace address, the maps link, and the shift details, such as time and pay.
  • Identity documents never reach the other side.
  • A profile photo can be opened by anyone who has its link, but identity documents are kept in restricted storage.

How we protect data

  • Every connection to the service is encrypted.
  • Each account can see only what it is permitted to see.
  • Identity documents are kept in private storage, and only the Saiiy team members who review them can see them.
  • Your password is stored in a way that no one can recover, not even us.

How long we keep data

We keep your data for as long as your account exists. When you ask to delete your account, what is described in the next section applies.

Your rights and requests

You can ask to see your data, correct it, get a copy of it, delete your account, or ask about your identity documents. Send your request to info@saiiy.com.

When you ask to delete your account: we close access to it, remove your identifying and profile data and replace it with data that does not identify you, and delete your profile photo. What the safety of the service requires stays stored: shifts, applications, attendance, ratings, messages, reports and verification documents.

The copy of your data that we send you includes your check-in and check-out times. It does not include images of your identity documents, your national ID number or your exact locations.

If a legal or security reason prevents a step of your request, we record the request together with the reason.

Deleting the app from your phone does not delete the data on the phone itself. To clear it, log out, then clear the app’s data from your phone’s settings.

This website

This website introduces Saiiy. It has no forms. Saiiy sets no cookies of its own, but the network that delivers and protects the site may set a security cookie that tells visitors apart from automated traffic. We use aggregated website traffic and performance statistics, including pages viewed, referral sources, country, device type, and browser. Our analytics does not use analytics cookies, local storage, or browser fingerprinting. As with ordinary web requests, technical connection data, including IP addresses, may be transmitted when requests are processed. We do not use these analytics to identify individual visitors. The contact buttons open WhatsApp with a ready-written message to the Saiiy team’s number, or the email app on your device with a ready-written message. Nothing reaches us unless you send the message. If you do, we use your number or email address and the text of your message only to reply to you, and a WhatsApp conversation is subject to WhatsApp’s policy.

Updates to this policy

We may update this page when something changes in the service. The date of the last update is shown at the top.
