Privacy Policy

Information and purposes

We collect the name, email, enquiry category, subject and message you submit through Contact, and an email address for optional updates. We use these for replies, corrections, requested updates, abuse prevention and site security. Hosting providers may process technical security logs and essential cookies. We do not sell personal information.

Optional analytics

Google Analytics 4 runs only after you accept analytics through Privacy choices. It processes usage, device/browser and approximate-location information and may store analytics cookies such as _ga. Google may receive IP addresses in network requests; GA4 does not log or store individual IP addresses. Essential local storage remembers your preference for up to 180 days. Rejecting analytics does not block articles or forms. Reopen Privacy choices on any page to withdraw permission; this does not undo earlier processing. If browser storage is unavailable your preference may not persist.

Google advertising

No Google AdSense ads are currently installed. If advertising begins, Google and other vendors may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses and identifiers to serve, measure and personalise ads. Advertising disclosures and any applicable Google-certified CMP for EEA, UK and Switzerland traffic must be implemented before relevant ads run. Our analytics choice banner is not an advertising TCF CMP.

Sharing, retention and security

Necessary hosting/analytics service providers and legally required recipients may process information, including outside India under their applicable terms. Contact records are retained as needed to handle enquiries, security and legal obligations. Update emails are retained while subscribed or as legally required. We use technical safeguards, but no internet transmission is guaranteed completely secure.

Your requests

Use Contact (Other) to request access, correction, deletion or unsubscribe. Requests are assessed under applicable law and identity checks. You can also remove cookies using your browser. External websites have their own policies. Material policy changes will be reflected with an updated date. The Hindi policy and English summary remain available.
