Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2025

At VerifyCloud Hub (accessible via ), protecting user privacy is fundamental to our service. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use our virtual phone number platform.

Information We Collect

VerifyCloud Hub is designed with privacy in mind. We minimize data collection to what's essential for service operation:

  • Website Usage Data: We collect standard web server logs including IP addresses, browser types, access times, and pages visited. This data helps us maintain service quality and security.
  • SMS Messages: Messages sent to virtual numbers are temporarily stored and displayed on our platform. These messages are visible to all users accessing the same number and are automatically deleted after a retention period.
  • Technical Information: Device information, operating system, and browser version may be collected for compatibility and optimization purposes.
  • No Personal Registration: Our free service requires no account creation, email addresses, or personal identification information.

How We Use Your Information

The limited information we collect serves the following purposes:

  • Providing and maintaining our virtual phone number service
  • Displaying SMS messages on number pages in real-time
  • Improving platform performance and user experience
  • Preventing abuse and ensuring service security
  • Complying with legal obligations and responding to lawful requests
  • Analyzing usage patterns to optimize service delivery

Data Storage and Retention

We implement strict data retention policies:

  • SMS messages are stored temporarily and automatically deleted after a specified period
  • Server logs are retained for security and troubleshooting purposes, typically for 30-90 days

  • Data is stored on secure servers with encryption at rest
