Protecting all our Global Network members privacy
Although our ability to provide service requires that we collect personal
information about our customers, we take measures to ensure the privacy and
confidentiality of that information.
Online privacy concerns focus on the protection of "customer identifiable"
information that an individual or other customer reasonably expects to be kept
private. As the term suggests, "customer identifiable" information is
information which can be associated with a specific individual or entity,
including, for example, a customer's name, address, or telephone number, e-mail
address, and information about online activities that are directly linked to
them.
We respect your privacy. We are not involved in the selling, trading or
alternative unauthorised use of personal information. We promise that we will
not pass on any of your personal details to any other another organisations. By
providing us with your information and visiting this web site, you accept and
consent to the practices described in this privacy policy.
What information do we collect and how do we use it?
ShaadiKaroge.com does collect information about you at different times.
Instances include:
-
Mandatory personal information needed for us to provide a service to
you
To first join ShaadiKaroge.com, information such as your name, contact
details, age and gender are requested. We will not disclose this personal
information unless we have received your express consent to do so.
We also may disclose this information to our subsidiary and parent companies
and businesses, and other affiliated legal entities and businesses with whom we
are under common corporate control. However, all of these parent, subsidiary and
affiliated legal entities and businesses that receive your personal information
from us will comply with the terms of this privacy policy with respect to their
use and disclosure of such personal information. We may also disclose this
information if we believe it is required by law - that is, to answer a subpoena,
warrant or in response to other legal processes. All of your information may be
transferred to and maintained on computer networks which may be located outside
of the state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction in which you
reside, and the countries in which these computer networks are located may not
have privacy laws as protective as the laws in your country.

Non-personally identifiable (specific or aggregated) information, to improve
our services
Apart from this mandatory information we need to provide our service to you,
there may be data (that does not personally identify you) collected to monitor
and improve ShaadiKaroge.com service and performance. For example, when you
visit a web page the URL requested is automatically recorded, as is the time and
date requested, and the browser software being used.
Specific or aggregate information may be collected to help maintain accurate
accounts, assist in marketing our products and services and to help make our web
site useful to you. For example, our server recognises your domain name and the
pages that you visit. This data is gathered in an aggregate manner for quality
control and improvement of our sites.
From time to time, ShaadiKaroge.com may provide aggregated statistical
information about sales, browsing patterns and navigation techniques to
reputable third parties. This is not personally identifiable information, and
assists ShaadiKaroge.com to improve products and services offered.
-
Personal information voluntarily provided by you - for
ShaadiKaroge.com surveys, newsletters, and in conjunction with third party
offers
We collect information that you volunteer to us on surveys, contests and on
registration pages and use the information collected only to improve your
ShaadiKaroge.com online experience. These surveys are strictly confidential. We
do not reveal, disclose, sell, distribute, rent, license, share or pass on to
any third parties your personal information without your consent. From time to
time ShaadiKaroge.com may form relationships with other organisations to bring
you special offers, competitions and subscriptions. For any third party offer or
subscription, we require as a matter of policy that the third party clearly
states their intentions with any information gathered, and attaches their
privacy policy as a hyperlink to the offer or subscription.
The terms and conditions of the offer should also be clearly stated. Please
read this information carefully, and understand that it is your own choice
should you choose to disclose your personally identifiable information to the
third party. The information that you offer to the third party is voluntary.
ShaadiKaroge.com enters into third party business relationships with
care, and will not share, disclose or sell any personally identifiable
information collected at our site with third party companies or organisations
without these conditions being met.
