Keymate connects people looking for rooms and roommates in Ireland. Here's how we handle your data and what you agree to.
Last updated: 15 September 2026 · Operated by Keymate (mykeymate.com)
Keymate is a platform that helps people find rooms, apartments and compatible roommates. We are a venue for listings and introductions — we are not a landlord, letting agent, or party to any tenancy agreement between members.
These terms are the end-user licence agreement (EULA) for the Keymate app and website. You must accept them before you create an account or log in.
You must be 18 or older and able to enter a legally binding agreement. You agree to provide accurate information.
Offensive, hateful, sexual, threatening or abusive content is not allowed in listings, profiles or messages. An automatic filter blocks the worst of it, and anyone can report content or a person and block any user at any time. We review every report within 24 hours, remove the offending content and ban the account that posted it.
Browsing and messaging are free during launch. Any future paid features (e.g. boosted listings) will be shown clearly before you pay, and are handled by a secure third-party payment provider (such as Stripe) — we never see or store your full card details.
Keymate does not verify the identity of members or check listings, and is not a party to any agreement between members. We cannot guarantee any listing, person or tenancy and are not responsible for any agreement, payment or loss. You are responsible for your own viewings, contracts and payments — always meet in person and never pay before you have seen the room. Keymate is provided "as is" to the extent permitted by Irish law.
You can delete your account at any time. We may suspend accounts that break these terms.
We may update these terms from time to time. If we make a material change we'll let you know, and continuing to use Keymate after an update means you accept the revised terms.
These terms are governed by the laws of Ireland, and disputes fall under the jurisdiction of the Irish courts.

To run the service, match you with compatible rooms and people, keep the community safe, and improve Keymate.
Only with service providers who help us operate (hosting, email, payments). We never sell your personal data. Your contact details stay masked from other members until you choose to share them.
For as long as your account is active, and a limited period afterwards as required by law. You can delete your account and data at any time.
Keymate is operated from Ireland and your data is primarily processed within the EU/EEA. Where a service provider processes data outside the EEA, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.

Where we show a map, it is served by OpenStreetMap/CARTO (map tiles) and unpkg.com (the Leaflet map library). Loading a map means your browser connects to those services directly, which shares your IP address and browser details with them — we can't see or control what they log.
Because of that, maps do not load on their own. You'll see a placeholder with a Load map button, and nothing is requested from those services until you press it. Your choice is remembered on your own device only; clearing your browser's site data for Keymate turns maps off again.
Two cookies are strictly necessary and always set: one keeps you signed in, the other protects the social login while it happens. We also use Google Analytics to see how many people visit — that one is optional, and it only runs if you accept it. On your first visit you can accept or decline, and you can change your answer at any time in Settings. Declining costs you nothing: the site works exactly the same. There are no advertising cookies. The other choice on this page is the map above: it loads nothing until you press Load map, and that preference stays on your own device.
The house rules that keep Keymate safe for everyone
Keymate only works if people trust each other. By using it you agree to:
Keymate has zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users.
We act on every report within 24 hours: the offending content is removed and the account that posted it is banned.
Depending on severity: a warning, listing removal, or a permanent ban. Serious cases (fraud) are reported to An Garda Síochána.
