Safe by design
Privacy and safety aren't features we added later — they're how Nearfo is built. Here's how we protect you and your neighbourhood.
End-to-end encryption
Your chats are encrypted end-to-end. Voice notes, media and messages stay between you and your circle.
Hide-city privacy
A one-tap toggle hides your city, state and country from anyone outside your trust circle. Distance never reveals identity.
Child safety (POCSO)
Zero tolerance for content that harms minors. POCSO-aligned moderation, proactive detection, and immediate escalation.
DPDPA 2023 compliant
Built to India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act. Your data stays in India, used only as you consent.
Fast reporting
Report any post, reel, user or message in two taps. Our Trust & Safety team reviews and acts quickly.
Verified businesses
Boost Circle merchants are KYB-verified, and Hawk anti-markup defence protects you from inflated prices.
