Security Policy

How we secure the residential community platform

Security is embedded across the RentWithoutBroker platform — from network transport and encryption to database policies and administrative access controls.

Network & transport security

All traffic is served over TLS 1.2+. HSTS is enabled. Internal service-to-service traffic is authenticated and scoped to the minimum required roles.

Encryption

  • Passwords stored as salted hashes; never accessible in plaintext.
  • Payment-gateway credentials and sensitive tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM.
  • Managed cloud storage encrypts data at rest.

Database & access control

  • Row-Level Security policies enforce society and role scoping on every table.
  • Roles are stored in a dedicated permissions table, not on user profiles, to prevent privilege escalation.
  • Service-role keys are used only in server functions and edge webhooks, never in the browser.
  • Administrative actions are audited.

Authentication

Email & password with strong password rules, optional passkeys (WebAuthn), device-based "remember this device" and session revocation from Account Security.

Rate limiting & anti-abuse

Contact forms, sign-ins and other sensitive endpoints are rate-limited. Anti-fraud checks are applied to referrals and campaign events.

Backups

Continuous database backups with point-in-time recovery. Restore procedures are tested regularly.

Vulnerability management

We run automated dependency scanning, database linters and periodic manual reviews. Findings are tracked to closure.

Incident response

Documented playbook: detect, contain, investigate, notify affected users where required by law, remediate, and publish a post-incident review for major events.

Responsible disclosure

Report vulnerabilities to security@rentwithoutbroker.in. Do not access other users' data. We acknowledge within 3 working days and credit reporters where appropriate.
