Privacy Policy

Technṛityam is operated by Niral Uprit as a sole proprietor based in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India. For the purposes of applicable data protection law, Niral Uprit is the data controller (and, under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, the Data Fiduciary) responsible for your personal data.

You can reach us, including our grievance contact, at admin.technrityam@gmail.com.

We collect the following categories of information, only as needed to run the platform:

• •Account information you give us: your name, email address, and (if you sign in with a third-party provider such as Google) the basic profile details that provider shares, like your display name and profile image.
• •Practice and learning data you create: your riyaz (practice) sessions, padhant entries, chakkar records, streaks, saved progress, and similar activity within the tools.
• •Subscription information: the plan you choose and the fact that a payment was confirmed. Payments happen over UPI and are confirmed by you sending a screenshot on WhatsApp, so we do not collect or store your card, bank, or UPI account details.
• •Usage and device information: how you interact with the site (pages and features used, clicks, approximate session activity), plus technical details such as browser type, device type, and a cookie or device identifier, collected through our analytics provider.
• •Communications: messages you send us by email, WhatsApp, or social media, and our replies.

Some parts of the platform let guests use tools without an account. In that case, your practice data may be stored only in your own browser (local storage) until you create an account, at which point we offer to move it to your account so you do not lose it.

We use personal information to:

• •Provide, operate, and maintain your account and the practice tools.
• •Save your progress and sync it across your devices.
• •Activate and manage your subscription after a payment is confirmed.
• •Understand how the platform is used so we can fix problems and improve features.
• •Respond to your questions, requests, and grievances.
• •Send you essential service messages (for example, about your account or important changes), and, only where permitted, occasional updates you can opt out of.
• •Keep the platform secure and prevent abuse, fraud, or misuse.
• •Comply with our legal obligations.

Where the law (such as in the EEA or UK) requires a legal basis, we rely on: performance of our contract with you (to provide the service you signed up for); your consent (for example, for non-essential analytics cookies or marketing); our legitimate interests in running and improving a safe, working product; and compliance with legal obligations. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.

We use PostHog, a product-analytics tool, to understand how people use the platform. When you are signed in, we associate analytics events with your account using your user identifier, and we may attach your email and name and whether you are on a paid plan, so we can analyse usage and support you. We do not use this to sell your data.

PostHog and our sign-in system use cookies and similar technologies (including local storage). For a full description of the cookies we use and how to control them, see our Cookie Policy.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in these limited situations:

• •Service providers who help us run the platform (for example, our hosting, database, and analytics providers such as PostHog) and who may only process data on our instructions.
• •Legal and safety reasons: where we are required to by law, regulation, or valid legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of our users, the public, or us.
• •Business transfer: if the platform or its assets are ever transferred to another operator, your information may be transferred as part of that, subject to this policy.
• •With your direction or consent: when you ask us to share something, or agree to it.

We and our service providers may process and store your information on servers located in India or other countries. Where personal data is transferred across borders, we take steps intended to ensure it remains protected in line with this policy and applicable law. If you are in the EEA or UK and we transfer your data outside it, we rely on appropriate safeguards where required.

We keep your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, and afterwards only as long as necessary to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When we no longer need it, we delete it or anonymise it.

Subject to applicable law (including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 in India, the GDPR in the EEA, and the UK GDPR), you may have the right to:

• •Access the personal data we hold about you and get a copy of it.
• •Correct or update information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
• •Delete your personal data (the "right to be forgotten"), subject to legal limits.
• •Object to or restrict certain processing, and withdraw consent you previously gave.
• •Port your data to another service where that right applies.
• •Nominate another person to exercise your rights in case of death or incapacity, where Indian law provides for it.
• •Complain to a data protection authority, such as the Data Protection Board of India or your local regulator.

To exercise any of these rights, email admin.technrityam@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting. You will not have to pay a fee unless the law allows it (for example, for excessive or repeated requests).

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, including access controls and encryption in transit. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to protect your information and will notify you and the authorities of a breach where the law requires.

The platform is intended for a general audience of dance learners. If you are below the age of 18, you may use it only with the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian, and where Indian law requires verifiable parental consent for processing a child's data, that consent must be given. If you believe a child has given us personal data without the required consent, contact us and we will delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top and, where appropriate, notify you. Your continued use of the platform after an update means you accept the revised policy.
