4) Log File Information: Our servers automatically capture limited information about your device's internet connection, including your IP address, when you access our Site or use the App. We receive and log information from both the App and your browser, encompassing aspects such as IP address, your device or computer's name, operating system, and more.

5) Cookies: To enhance the Site's responsiveness for users, we may employ "cookies" or similar electronic tools to gather information that assigns each visitor a unique, random User Identification (User ID). This helps us understand individual user interests on the identified device. By continuing to visit the App/Site, you are consenting to the utilization of cookies and similar technologies for the purposes outlined in this Policy. If you prefer not to receive cookies or web beacons, you can either cease using our Services or adjust your browsing and third-party cookie settings. Cookies and other technologies are used for website analysis, optimization, and marketing purposes. Additionally, our partners may assign their own cookies to your browser, a process we do not oversee.
The Website may contain links to other websites, including advertisers, blogs, content sponsorships, vendor services, and social networks, among others. These websites are subject to their own respective privacy policies, over which we have no control. Once you leave our servers (you can determine this by checking the URL in your browser's address bar), any information you provide is subject to the privacy policy of the website you are visiting. We do not guarantee or warrant how your information is stored or used on third-party servers. This policy may differ from ours. If you cannot locate the privacy policy of any of these websites through a link on their homepage, we recommend contacting the website directly for further information.
1) The collected Information, including personal information, may be shared with our affiliates and group companies to the extent necessary for internal business, administrative purposes, general corporate operations, and with third-party service providers, including marketing partners. By using the Vyapaarkhata Services, the User consents to this sharing.
2) We will take reasonable measures to ensure that these third-party service providers are bound by confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations, and that they comply with applicable data protection laws.
3) Entities with whom we share Information may engage in marketing activities unless you explicitly choose to opt-out.
4) The User explicitly consents to our access to their contact directory, location, and device information. Additionally, the User agrees to provide PAN and Know-Your-Customer (KYC) details for eligibility checks related to products/services, including credit and payment offerings. This consent is aimed at enhancing the User's experience and providing access to services offered by us, affiliates, or other third-party service providers, including lenders.
5) Furthermore, the User consents to the sharing of Information (including sensitive personal information) when requested or required by law, court, governmental agency, or authority, for identity verification, prevention, detection, investigation (including cyber incidents), or prosecution of offenses. These disclosures are made in good faith and belief that they are necessary to enforce the Terms of Use or comply with applicable laws and regulations.
6) Personal information, such as name, phone number, address, email address, user id, spending data, card details, and other information (date of birth, gender identity, veteran status), will not be shared with other Users or third parties unless explicitly approved by the concerned individual User.
7) We share crash logs and diagnostic data with Playstore/appstore to enhance user experience.
8) We may present aggregated statistical information related to credit records, User spends, payment info, credit score (with user consent), app interactions, in-app search history, and patterns to partners or within our App/Site. This information will not identify individual Users.
9) By using the Vyapaarkhata Services and providing information to us, Users agree and consent to the disclosure, transfer, storage, and processing of their personal information (including sensitive personal information) by us in India or other countries, to affiliates, group companies, and third parties. Users should be aware that data protection laws in countries where their Information may be stored could differ from those in their own location.
When Users utilize the Site (including any sub-sites) or the App, we strive to facilitate Users' access to their Information upon their request. Additionally, we are committed to rectifying any inaccuracies or deficiencies identified in personal information, sensitive personal data, or other Information, to the extent feasible. However, this process is subject to any legal requirement or legitimate business purpose necessitating the retention of such personal Information, sensitive personal data, or Information. To process such requests, we require individual Users to verify their identity and specify the Information they wish to access, correct, or remove. We may choose not to fulfill requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, involve disproportionate technical effort, compromise others' privacy, or are excessively impractical (such as requests pertaining to Information stored on backup tapes), or those that do not require access for valid reasons.
In cases where we do provide access and correction of Information, we offer this service without any charge, unless its execution would require a disproportionate level of effort. It's important to note that due to the nature of our service maintenance, even after you delete your Information, residual copies may persist on our active servers and backups for a certain period before being completely removed.
Periodically, we create backups of your data on the Vyapaarkhata website and store it in our cloud database. This precautionary measure serves the purpose of ensuring that Users can recover their data in case their phone's data becomes inaccessible, their phone is lost, or if they transition to a new device. These backups also facilitate the provision of valuable insights and information regarding User expenditures, such as weekly spending within a month and insights into spending patterns. Moreover, these backups allow us to offer information concerning User spending habits, patterns, and data, presented as aggregated and anonymized statistics. These statistics cover aspects like User spending by category, date, time, as well as bank balances.
We maintain User Information in our records for a duration during which we can potentially provide the Vyapaarkhata Services to Users. After this period, when the relevance of Vyapaarkhata Services to a User diminishes, we securely delete all Information related to that particular User from our records.
We implement appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of data, including accidental or intentional manipulation and loss from unauthorized parties. These measures encompass internal evaluations of our data collection, storage, and processing practices, as well as security protocols such as encryption and physical safeguards to prevent unauthorized access to systems where personal data is stored. All information collected through the Vyapaarkhata website is securely stored within controlled databases, and access to servers is restricted and password-protected.
We consistently review and update our security measures to align with technological advancements. While we take every reasonable step to ensure the security of your personal information, please note that no transmission of data over the internet or any other public network can guarantee 100% security.
Our goal is to comply with applicable data protection laws to safeguard and uphold User privacy and personal information. To achieve this, we have implemented physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in line with the regulations of specific jurisdictions. By agreeing to this Policy, you acknowledge that the security practices we employ are reasonable and sufficient for the protection of your personal information.
In the event of any breach in the security, confidentiality, or integrity of your unencrypted electronically stored Personal Information, we will promptly inform you via email or any other feasible means, within a reasonable timeframe and without undue delay, to the extent consistent with the lawful requirements of law enforcement. We will take all necessary steps to assess the extent of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system.
We will exclusively gather and process your Personal Information when we possess a legal basis to do so. Our fundamental objective in gathering your information, including Personal Information, is to provide the personalized Vyapaarkhata experience along with its diverse features. It's important to note that if you choose not to grant us consent to collect your information, including Personal Information, we might be unable to fulfill the contractual agreement with you. When we mention "fulfill the contract," we are referring to the Terms of Use that apply to your utilization of the Vyapaarkhata Service. This implies that you might either be restricted from accessing specific features of the Vyapaarkhata Service, or we might not be able to offer you the complete Vyapaarkhata Service.
A User has the right to withdraw their consent to the processing of their personal information at any time, which will take effect for future actions. However, it's important to understand that withdrawing consent does not impact our authority to continue collecting, using, and disclosing personal information in cases where such actions are allowed or mandated by applicable laws, even without consent.
We may periodically modify our Policy to incorporate necessary adjustments due to changes in technology, relevant laws, or other factors. It's important to note that we retain the right to revise the terms of this Policy or the Terms of Use at any time. Any modifications will take effect immediately upon notice, which we might provide by publishing the updated policy on the Site. Your continued use of the Vyapaarkhata Services after such notice will be considered as your acceptance of the revised terms. We may also make reasonable attempts to inform you through electronic mail. However, we recommend that you periodically review this Policy on the Site to stay informed about the most current version.
