Privacy Policy
How registration information may be collected, used, retained and protected.
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to information submitted through the EternalDharm registration form, related communications and participation workflows connected with expert advocacy, community interaction and learning activities.
2. Information that may be collected
- Name, email address, telephone number, country, city or broad location.
- Age group, language preference, availability and preferred discussion format.
- Topics, questions, learning goals, experience level and areas of interest.
- Communications, feedback, consent records and participation history.
- Technical information that may be collected by Google Forms, the website host, security tools or analytics services, subject to their own policies.
3. Information that should not be submitted
Do not submit passwords, payment-card details, government identity numbers, confidential third-party information, unnecessary medical information, precise location data or any sensitive personal data not specifically requested for a lawful and clearly explained purpose.
4. Purpose of processing
- To review registration requests and understand learning interests.
- To communicate about suitable experts, discussions, events, communities or educational resources.
- To moderate participation, prevent misuse and maintain platform safety.
- To improve EternalDharm content, registration experience and community programmes.
- To meet legal, regulatory, security, record-keeping or dispute-resolution requirements.
5. Consent and lawful use
By submitting the form, you voluntarily provide the requested information and authorize its use for the stated purposes, subject to applicable Indian law. Where consent is the applicable basis, you may withdraw it by contacting EternalDharm, although withdrawal will not invalidate lawful processing already completed.
6. Google Forms and third-party services
The registration form may be hosted through Google Forms. Information entered into the form may therefore be processed through Google systems under Google’s applicable terms, privacy notices and data-location arrangements. EternalDharm does not control every technical aspect of third-party platforms.
7. Sharing and disclosure
Information may be shared only when reasonably necessary with authorized EternalDharm personnel, selected experts, moderators, service providers, technology vendors, professional advisers, law-enforcement authorities or regulators. EternalDharm does not authorize unrelated commercial sale of registration data.
8. Data retention
Registration information may be retained only for as long as reasonably required for the stated purposes, legal obligations, security, record keeping or legitimate dispute handling. Retention periods should be periodically reviewed and unnecessary data should be deleted or anonymized where practical.
9. Security
Reasonable administrative, technical and organizational precautions may be used. No online platform, email system, form provider or digital storage method can guarantee absolute security. Users submit information with awareness of this inherent risk.
10. Children and minors
Persons below the age required for independent digital consent under applicable law should register only through or with verifiable consent of a parent or lawful guardian. EternalDharm may request additional confirmation or decline participation where age or consent is uncertain.
11. User choices and rights
Subject to applicable law and reasonable verification, users may request access, correction, updating, deletion, withdrawal of consent, grievance review or information about processing. Some requests may be limited by legal obligations, security, fraud prevention, record retention or legitimate dispute requirements.
12. Cookies, analytics and website logs
The website or hosting environment may use essential cookies, security logs or analytics. A separate cookie notice should be added if non-essential tracking or advertising technologies are used.
13. Cross-border processing
Third-party technology providers may process or store information in India or other permitted jurisdictions. Such processing is subject to applicable law, provider arrangements and technical infrastructure.
14. Grievance contact
Grievance or privacy contact: [Insert responsible person or designation]
Email: [Insert privacy/grievance email]
Business address: [Insert complete address]
15. Policy updates
This policy may be updated to reflect operational, legal or technical changes. The effective date and last-reviewed date should be displayed when published.
This is a practical website template, not legal advice or a guarantee of legal protection. It should be reviewed and customized by a qualified Indian advocate and privacy professional before publication, particularly for the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and applicable rules, amendments and sector-specific requirements.
