1. Introduction
Welcome to Alkrie.info ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information with care and respect. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect from you when you use our website (the "Service"), how we use that information, and the steps we take to safeguard it.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information that you voluntarily provide when you use our tools. This includes:
- Birth details — date of birth, time of birth, and birth place (city name and geographic coordinates) entered to generate horoscope, compatibility, numerology, or Panchangam reports.
- Name — if you choose to enter it. This is optional on most tools and is used only to personalise the display of your report.
- Feedback — any message, name, and email address you voluntarily submit through our feedback form.
- Account information — if you create an account, we store your email address, preferred language, subscription tier, and any birth details you choose to save for faster access on future visits. Login uses a one-time code sent to your email; we do not store passwords.
We also automatically collect certain technical information when you use the Service:
- IP address — your device's internet address, used to derive an approximate geographic location (country, region, city) for service improvement and analytics.
- Browser / device information — your user-agent string (browser type and operating system), collected automatically.
- Session data — temporary session storage used for CAPTCHA verification and form state; this is not persisted beyond your session.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information collected for the following purposes:
- To perform astrological, numerological, and Panchangam calculations and display personalised reports.
- To analyse usage patterns — which tools are used, from which geographies — to improve our services.
- To respond to feedback you voluntarily submit.
- To ensure the security and integrity of the Service (fraud prevention, abuse detection).
We do not use your birth details for profiling, advertising targeting, or any purpose unrelated to providing the Service.
We use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager to understand which pages and tools are popular and to improve the site and our services. This is limited to visitor traffic patterns and does not involve your birth details or personal reports.
4. Data Storage and Retention
Query data (birth details, IP, approximate location) is stored in a secure database on our servers, whether or not you are logged in. We retain this data for a reasonable period for analytics and service improvement.
For anonymous use, this data is not linked to any personal identity beyond an optional name you choose to enter. If you are logged into an account, your saved birth details are associated with your email address so we can pre-fill your information on future visits.
Feedback submissions (including any name and email you provide) are retained until you request deletion.
We take reasonable technical measures to protect stored data from unauthorised access.
5. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Birth details and personal report data are used only to generate your calculations and are never shared with advertisers or used for ad targeting.
Our site uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, which receive standard technical data (such as pages visited and browser information) as part of how these tools work. Google AdSense is integrated into the site for potential future advertising, but no ads are currently being shown. If that changes, this policy will be updated. These Google tools operate under Google's own privacy practices, described at Google's Privacy & Terms.
IP geolocation is derived using a third-party service (ip-api.com); only your IP address is transmitted to this service for lookup purposes.
6. Cookies and Local Storage
Our website uses browser localStorage to remember form inputs between sessions (birth details, last-used city), so you do not have to re-enter them each visit. This data stays in your own browser and is never transmitted to us. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings.
Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Google AdSense may set their own cookies as part of how those tools work, as described in Section 5 above.
7. Your Rights (DPDPA 2023 & General)
Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 and general privacy principles, you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data we hold about you. To exercise these rights, contact us at the address below. For anonymous query data not linked to an account, deletion requests for historical logs will be processed on a best-effort basis.
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
