This Privacy Policy explains how Santosh Kshirsagar ("I", "me", or "my") collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit this website. I am committed to ensuring your privacy is protected and that any information you provide is handled responsibly.

2. Information I May Collect

Depending on how you interact with this website, I may collect:

  • Contact information — name, email address, or phone number, if you reach out directly via email, phone, or WhatsApp
  • Technical information — IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, if analytics are enabled
  • Cookies — session cookies required for the website to function, and optional analytics cookies if analytics are active
  • User-generated content — comments or messages submitted through any blog or contact features on this site

This website currently does not run a contact form or third-party analytics. This policy is written to cover features that may be added, such as a blog with comments.

3. How I Use Your Information

Any information collected is used solely to:

  • Respond to your enquiries and provide support
  • Improve the website and user experience
  • Understand how visitors interact with the site (if analytics are enabled)
  • Send updates or newsletters, only with your explicit consent
  • Detect and address technical issues or security threats

4. Data Storage and Security

I implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute security.

Any data stored is only accessible by authorised parties on a need-to-know basis.

5. Sharing Your Information

I do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Information may be shared only in these limited circumstances:

  • Service providers — trusted third parties who help operate this website (e.g. hosting, email delivery), bound by confidentiality obligations
  • Legal requirements — when required by law or to protect legal rights and safety
  • Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets

6. Cookies

This website uses a session cookie required for the site to function correctly. If analytics or other features are added in future, additional cookies may be used and this policy will be updated accordingly.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or alert you when a cookie is being sent. Disabling session cookies may affect the functionality of some parts of the site.

7. Third-Party Links

This website may contain links to third-party sites including social platforms and external services. I am not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies independently.

10. Changes to This Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. I encourage you to review this policy periodically.
