Privacy Policy
Effective Date: December 06, 2025
Introduction
Your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and your rights under applicable law. We process personal data in accordance with applicable Indian laws (including the DPDP framework as it is implemented) and applicable international norms when relevant to visitors.
1. What Information We Collect
- Personal Data you provide: name, email address, phone number (optional), message content, and any attachments you send via our contact form or email.
- Technical / Non-personal data: IP address, device/browser type, pages visited, referral URL, timestamps — collected automatically via server logs and analytics tools.
2. Purpose and Legal Basis for Processing
We process personal data for the following purposes:
- To respond to inquiries and requests you send through contact forms or email;
- To operate and improve the site (analytics, debugging, UX improvements);
- To send occasional updates or exhibition invitations — only when you opt in;
- To comply with legal obligations (e.g., respond to lawful requests, enforce our Terms).
Where required by applicable law or best practice (including the DPDP framework), we rely on consent, legitimate interest, contractual necessity, or legal compliance as our legal basis for processing.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies for site functionality and analytics. You can manage or withdraw consent via the cookie banner or your browser settings. (We recommend implementing an explicit cookie consent mechanism).
4. Data Sharing and Disclosures
We do not sell personal information. We may share data with:
- Service providers (hosting, email delivery, analytics) under contract to provide services;
- Legal authorities when required by law or to protect rights;
- Third parties with your explicit consent.
Where data is shared with processors, we require them to provide adequate security and confidentiality.
5. Data Retention
We retain contact form data and email correspondence for 3 years unless you request deletion earlier. We retain analytics and log data for 24 months for performance and security purposes, unless otherwise required by law.
6. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect data (HTTPS, access controls, backups). However, no transmission over the internet is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Transfers Outside India
If data is processed or stored outside India (e.g., hosting or analytics servers abroad), we ensure appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards) consistent with applicable law.
8. Links to Other Sites
Our Site may link to third-party sites. This Policy does not apply to third-party websites; check their privacy policies.
