Privacy Policy

Ayushya Mandiram

1. About This Policy

Ayushya Mandiram provides information and activities relating to yoga education, holistic health awareness, traditional knowledge and community welfare. We aim to handle personal information responsibly and transparently.

This Policy applies to information collected through our website and the online communication channels we use. Third-party websites and services linked from our website may have their own privacy policies and practices.

2. Information We May Collect

The information collected depends on the service you use and the information you choose to provide. It may include:

• Contact information: Your name, email address, phone number and the contents of messages you send us.
• Enquiry and registration information: Details submitted through contact, programme application, participation, membership or registration forms, where these forms are available.
• YT-QSEP™ programme information: Information provided by applicants or participants, such as contact details and programme-related information requested during the application, admission, training or assessment process.
• Communications: Information contained in correspondence with us, including enquiries made through email or WhatsApp.
• Donation, purchase or payment records: Where these facilities are available, limited transaction information may be retained for confirmation, accounting, support and applicable legal requirements.
• Technical and usage information: Depending on website configuration and enabled services, technical information may include browser and device details, pages visited, referring pages, approximate usage information and interactions with website links or advertising.

Please provide only information that is relevant to your enquiry or application. Do not submit passwords, complete payment-card details or other sensitive information through ordinary contact forms or messages.

3. How We Use Information

We may use information, as applicable, to:

• Respond to enquiries and provide requested information.
• Process programme applications, registrations, admissions and participant communications where applicable.
• Administer YT-QSEP™ programme-related activities, training, assessments and records where relevant.
• Communicate updates about services, activities, events or applications that you have requested or are involved in.
• Maintain website operations, security and functionality, and investigate technical problems or misuse.
• Measure website and advertising interactions, where relevant tracking technologies are enabled.
• Maintain appropriate administrative, financial and programme records and meet applicable legal obligations.
• Respond to privacy requests, resolve disputes and protect the rights and security of users and the organisation.

We aim to use personal information only for purposes relevant to the service requested, subject to applicable law and the choices available to you.

4. Donations, Purchases and Payments

If donation, purchase or payment facilities are made available through our website, the relevant transaction may be processed by a third-party payment service provider.

Payment providers may collect and process information under their own terms and privacy policies. We encourage you to review the relevant provider’s privacy information before completing a transaction.

Where applicable, we may retain transaction references and limited records needed for confirmation, accounting, customer support or legal compliance. We do not claim to store complete payment-card or banking credentials unless our actual service configuration specifically requires and discloses such processing.

5. When Information May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. We may disclose or permit access to relevant information in the following circumstances:

• Service providers: To website hosting providers, form or communication services, analytics and advertising providers, and payment processors where their services are used.
• Google services: Our website uses Google tags and Google Ads conversion tracking. Depending on the enabled configuration, these services may receive technical information and information about website interactions for advertising measurement and related purposes.
• WhatsApp: If you choose to contact us through WhatsApp, your interaction and the information you send are processed by WhatsApp under its applicable terms and privacy policy.
• Legal requirements: Where disclosure is required by applicable law or a lawful request from a competent authority.
• Protection and security: Where reasonably necessary to investigate misuse or protect users, the public or the organisation.
• Your direction or consent: Where you request or authorise a particular disclosure, subject to applicable law.

Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy policies, contractual terms and applicable legal obligations. Their independent practices are not controlled entirely by Ayushya Mandiram.

6. Cookies, Google Ads and Analytics

Our website uses Google tags and Google Ads conversion tracking to measure certain website interactions, including relevant enquiry or WhatsApp link clicks. These technologies help us understand interactions with our website and measure the performance of our online outreach.

Depending on the configuration of the services, the browser environment and applicable consent settings, Google technologies may process information such as:

• Browser, device and technical information.
• Pages visited and interactions with website links.
• Cookie identifiers or similar technologies, where used and available under the relevant settings.
• Advertising measurement information and technical identifiers used to measure or attribute website interactions.

The precise information processed depends on the tags, settings, consent choices and services active at the time of your visit. We do not claim that every possible Google advertising or analytics feature is enabled.

Google may process information in accordance with its own privacy policies and service terms. For further information, please review Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s information about advertising technologies.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies or certain technologies may affect some website functions or the accuracy of advertising measurement.

Where consent is required by applicable law or by the relevant service configuration, the applicable consent choices should be respected. Browser settings alone may not control every form of data processing by third-party services.

7. Data Retention and Security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to enquiries, administering programmes, maintaining relevant records, resolving disputes and meeting applicable legal obligations.

Retention periods may vary according to the type of information, the service involved and applicable requirements. Information that is no longer reasonably required should be securely deleted or otherwise disposed of, subject to lawful retention obligations.

We take reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information against unauthorised access, disclosure, loss, misuse or alteration. Access should be limited to persons and service providers who need the information for legitimate operational purposes.

No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security in every circumstance.

8. Your Requests and Choices

You may contact us to ask about personal information you have provided, request correction of inaccurate information, or request deletion where applicable. We will review such requests in accordance with applicable law and our legitimate record-keeping obligations.

Some records may need to be retained for legal, accounting, security, programme administration or dispute-resolution purposes. If we cannot fulfil a request in full, we will handle it subject to applicable requirements.

You may also manage certain cookies through your browser settings and use available controls provided by third-party services. These controls may not affect all forms of processing.

To make a privacy-related request, contact us using the details in Section 12. Please describe your request clearly and avoid sending passwords or complete payment-card details.

9. External Websites and Third-Party Services

Our website may link to external websites or services, including WhatsApp, Google services, videos, payment providers and other platforms.

When you follow an external link or interact with a third-party service, that provider may collect or process information under its own terms and privacy policy. We do not control the independent content, security or privacy practices of external services.

We encourage you to review the relevant third-party privacy information before providing personal information through an external service.

10. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorisation where required by applicable law.

If you believe that a child has submitted personal information inappropriately, please contact us. We will review the matter and take appropriate action where required.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our website, services, data practices or applicable legal requirements change. The revised version will be published on this page with an updated effective date where appropriate.

Please review this page periodically to understand how we handle information. Any changes will apply from the date specified in the updated Policy, subject to applicable law.
