Privacy notice

Last updated November 2026. Written to follow the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173).

01What we collect

  • Report details — category, title, description, the location you pin, city/municipality and barangay, and the photos you upload.
  • Optional contact details — name, email and mobile number, only if you choose to give them.
  • Security data — a one-way keyed hash of your IP address and a partly masked IP, used only to stop spam and abuse; and your browser’s user-agent for security logs.

02What is public, and what is not

Published reports show the category, title, description, location, photos and status history. Your name appears only if you gave one and did not choose to be anonymous.

Your email and phone number are never published and never returned by any public part of the site. They are visible only to moderators, and to the LGU office responsible for that location, so they can ask you about the report.

Moderator and LGU staff names are not shown on public timelines.

03Photos

Every uploaded photo is re-encoded on our server. GPS coordinates, camera model and other embedded metadata are removed, and file names are replaced with random identifiers. Please avoid faces, plate numbers and the inside of homes; moderators blur or remove such photos.

04How long we keep data

Published reports stay public as a civic record. Contact details can be removed on request at any time. Security logs are kept only as long as needed to prevent abuse.

05Your rights

You may ask to access, correct, anonymise or remove personal data in any report. Email privacy@ayosbayan.ph with the report’s reference code. You may also contact the National Privacy Commission.
