How Yuth Conekt handles your personal information.

Last updated 31 October 2026

Who we are

Yuth Conekt is a South African student rewards platform. Members scan eligible till slips to earn Weekly Picks and YC Points, then redeem points for airtime, data and vouchers.
If you have any question about your information, email Support@yuthconekt.co.za.

Account details: your name, email address, mobile number, and the password you set (stored encrypted — we never see it).
Student verification: your university, and either your campus email address (confirmed with a one-time code) or a photo of your student card with a selfie, reviewed to confirm you are a student.
Till slips: photos of slips you scan, and the store, date and total read from them, used to award Weekly Picks.
Activity: points earned and redeemed, Weekly Picks results, vouchers won, referrals and membership status.
Technical details: device type, app version and error reports, used to keep the app working.

Partner businesses see only what they need to complete a redemption: your first name, your member tier and the reward applied — never your contact details, ID or full history.
Service providers who host our platform, send our emails and deliver airtime, data or vouchers, under contract and only for those purposes.
Authorities, where the law requires it.
We never sell your personal information.

While your account is open, and for 30 days after you delete it in case you want it back. After that, your personal details are erased.
Transaction records may be kept longer in anonymous form for accounting and reporting. These cannot be traced back to you.

You can view and update your details in the app under Profile.
You can delete your account at any time in the app: Profile, then "Delete my account".
If you have uninstalled the app, you can still request deletion on our deletion page.
You can ask us for a copy of your information, or ask us to correct it, by emailing Support@yuthconekt.co.za.

Membership is for people aged 25 and under. Members under 18 need permission from a parent or guardian to join.

Your data is stored on encrypted, access-controlled infrastructure. Access is limited to staff who need it to support you, and every administrative action is logged.

If we make an important change, we will tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect.
