Last updated: August 14, 2026
1. Introduction
AstroGanesh ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website, mobile application, and related services (collectively, the "Services").
By accessing or using our Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Personal Information You Provide
- Name, email address, and profile photo (via Google or Apple sign-in)
- Date, time, and place of birth (for astrological calculations)
- Payment and billing information (processed by third-party providers)
- Messages and files shared during consultation sessions
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
- Device information (type, operating system, unique identifiers)
- Usage data (pages visited, features used, session duration)
- IP address and approximate location
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies
3. How We Use Your Information
- Provide, operate, and improve our Services
- Generate astrological readings, Kundli charts, and personalized insights
- Facilitate live consultations between users and astrologers
- Process payments and manage your wallet balance
- Send transactional notifications (session confirmations, receipts)
- Analyze usage patterns to enhance user experience
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:
- Astrologers: Birth details and session messages necessary to conduct your consultation
- Service providers: Payment processors, cloud hosting, analytics, and customer support tools
- Legal compliance: When required by law, regulation, or valid legal process
- Business transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
5. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest, and access controls. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Account Deletion & Data Retention
You can delete your account at any time from the app (Profile → Settings → Delete Account) or on the web at astroganesh.ai/delete-account. When you delete your account:
- It is deactivated and you are signed out on all devices; you can no longer access it.
- Your account information is retained so your account can be restored if you sign in again with the same phone number or Google account.
- Records we are required to keep for legal, tax, accounting, or fraud-prevention purposes (such as payment and transaction records) are retained for the period required by applicable law — in India, up to 8 years for financial records — and are then deleted or anonymised.
If you would like your personal data permanently erased rather than retained for restoration, email privacy@astroganesh.ai and we will process your request, subject to the legal retention requirements above.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete your personal information
- Withdraw consent for data processing
- Request data portability
- Object to or restrict certain processing activities
- Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority
To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@astroganesh.ai.
8. Cookies
We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and functional cookies to remember your preferences (such as theme mode). We may also use analytics cookies to understand how you use our Services. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
9. Third-Party Links
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
10. Children's Privacy
Our Services are not intended for individuals under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected information from a child, we will delete it promptly.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy on our website and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Services after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
