Seller identity documents

Everyone who lists on Bikwao, on bikwao.com or on any Bikwao portal (agri, business, property, rentals, resto and vehicle), on a free or a paid plan, uploads one personal or business document once, before the first listing goes live. The same document covers later listings made with the same mobile number.

Accepted documents: masked Aadhaar (only the last 4 digits visible; a full Aadhaar number is not accepted), PAN card, voter ID, driving licence, passport, Udyam certificate, shop or trade licence, GST certificate, FSSAI licence, company or LLP certificate, partnership deed, or another official document in the seller's or the business's name. A GST registration is never required to list.

Why we ask for it: Bikwao (operated by Mantra Tech Fusion) is an intermediary under Section 79 of the Information Technology Act, 2000. The document is a record of who placed each listing. We use it to deal with complaints and fraud, to settle disputes, to respond to lawful requests from courts and government agencies, and to meet our duties under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021. We do not check documents through any government service, and having a document on file is not an endorsement of the seller or the listing.

How it is kept:

  • Files are encrypted (AES-256) and stored outside the public website. They are never shown to buyers or other users.
  • Photos are saved in WebP format. Of the document number we keep only the last 4 characters.
  • Only the Bikwao super administrator can open a document, and every opening is recorded with the date and time.
  • When you tick the consent box we record the date, time, IP address and the version of the consent text you accepted.

Replace, not delete: you can upload a newer document at any time, for example when it expires or your business details change. Earlier documents are kept, encrypted, as part of the record and are not deleted on request while they may be needed for the purposes above. We keep documents while your account or listings exist and after that for as long as the law requires or a legal claim may arise, and in any case for at least 180 days after the account is closed.

Sharing: we never sell documents or use them for marketing. We share them only when the law requires it, such as an order of a court or a lawful request from a government agency or the police.

Your rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023: you can ask what we hold about you and correct it by uploading a newer document. For questions or complaints write to our Grievance Officer at info.bikwao@gmail.com.
