This website is owned and operated by Shritej Patil, an independent freelance web designer and developer based in Maharashtra, India ("I", "me", "my"). This policy explains what personal information is collected when you visit or use shritejpatil.in, why it is collected, and what choices you have over it.
By using this website you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please stop using the site.
I keep data collection to the minimum needed to run this site and reply to enquiries.
I do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data (such as health, biometric, financial account or government ID information) through this website. Please do not submit such information through the contact form.
I do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. I do not use your details for automated decision-making or profiling, and I will not add you to a marketing list without asking you first.
Where the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (India), the UK/EU GDPR or similar laws apply, I rely on the following grounds: your consent, given when you voluntarily submit the contact form; the performance of a contract when I deliver work you have commissioned; my legitimate interests in operating and securing this website; and legal obligation where record keeping is required by law.
This site relies on a small number of third-party providers. Each processes data under its own privacy policy, and some of them are located outside India, which means your information may be transferred and stored abroad.
I share your information with these providers only to the extent needed to run the site, and otherwise disclose it only where the law requires it.
This website does not set its own advertising or analytics cookies, and it does not run any tracking or profiling scripts. The third-party services listed above may set cookies or use similar technologies of their own when their files are loaded.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Doing so will not stop this site from working. If analytics are added in the future, this policy will be updated before they go live.
Enquiries that do not lead to a project are kept for up to 24 months and then deleted. Records relating to completed projects — contracts, invoices and correspondence — are kept for as long as required by Indian tax and accounting law. Server logs held by the hosting provider are retained according to that provider's own schedule.
You may ask me to delete your enquiry sooner at any time.
The site is served over HTTPS, and I use reputable providers, access controls and strong authentication on the accounts that hold your data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, so I cannot guarantee absolute security. Please avoid sending passwords or confidential credentials through the contact form.
Subject to the law that applies to you, you can ask me to:
Write to shritejpatil2806@gmail.com and I will respond within 30 days. If you believe your request has not been handled properly, you may complain to the Data Protection Board of India or to your local supervisory authority.
This website is intended for business use and is not directed at children under 18. I do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has sent me personal information, contact me and I will delete it.
I may update this policy as the site or the law changes. The revised version takes effect when it is published here, and the "last updated" date at the top will change. Please review it from time to time.
Questions about this policy, or about how your information is handled, can be sent to shritejpatil2806@gmail.com, or through the contact page. Postal address available on request.
This policy is provided for transparency and general information. It is not legal advice. See also the Terms & Conditions that govern use of this website.
