• Communication information may include messages, support requests, removal requests, complaints, attachments and the contact details used to reply.
• Transaction information may include a payment reference, amount, currency, plan, status and billing-related metadata. Complete card or bank credentials should be entered only into the authorised payment provider's interface.

• We may record login attempts, registrations, account changes, listing changes, administrative actions and abuse indicators.
• These records support delivery, troubleshooting, capacity planning, fraud detection, rate limiting, account security and investigation of misuse.
• We do not use automatic collection to obtain information unrelated to operating or protecting the Service.

5 Public profiles and public listing content

• The Service is a public website directory and profile platform. Information intentionally published on a public page can be viewed by anyone, including visitors who are not logged in, search engines, archival services and automated systems.
• The following account fields may be publicly visible: your display name, username, joining or registration date, last-login or last-activity date, country when shown, number of websites added and the websites associated with your public profile.
• Public website submissions may display the website URL, name, description, category, thumbnail, submission date, plan or VIP label, security indicator and other listing information intended for publication.
• Your email address, password, session identifiers, auto-login keys, private security logs and non-public account controls are not intended to appear on the public profile.
• Do not place private information in a username, display name, website description or other public field. Public content may remain temporarily visible in search-engine caches after it is removed from our Service.
• By submitting public profile or listing content, you direct us to publish that content as part of the directory service.

6 Purposes of processing

• We process information to create and administer accounts; authenticate users; display profiles and listings; process submissions; provide purchased or requested features; send service communications; answer enquiries; maintain records; enforce rules; prevent abuse; diagnose failures; improve performance; and comply with applicable law.
• We do not repurpose private account information for unrelated advertising by third parties.
• Where practicable, we use aggregated or de-identified information for statistics and service planning.

7 Legal grounds and permitted uses

• Depending on the applicable law and context, processing may be based on your consent, steps requested by you, performance of a contract, compliance with law, protection from fraud or security threats, establishment or defence of legal claims, or another permitted use.
• Consent may be withdrawn for future consent-based processing. Withdrawal does not invalidate processing lawfully completed before withdrawal and may prevent us from supplying a feature that necessarily requires the information.
• Submitting a website for public display is a request to publish the listing information supplied for that purpose.

8 Cookies and local storage

• Essential cookies or similar browser storage may be used for login sessions, security, preferences, request integrity and core functionality.
• Disabling essential cookies may prevent registration, login, account management or other interactive functions from working.
• If optional analytics, advertising or personalisation technologies are introduced, they should be identified through an appropriate notice or consent control where required.
• You can remove stored browser data using your browser settings, although doing so may sign you out.

9 Account credentials and authentication

• Passwords should be stored using a strong one-way password hashing method and should never be displayed publicly.
• Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their credentials and for promptly reporting suspected unauthorised access.
• Session and login information may be processed to authenticate requests, identify suspicious activity, revoke compromised sessions and protect accounts.
• Administrative access to account information should be limited to authorised personnel with an operational need.

10 Website screenshots and external resources

• Listing pages may request a website screenshot, favicon or preview from an external screenshot or content-delivery service using the submitted website URL.
• A visitor's browser may connect to that external service when the resource is loaded. The provider may receive ordinary request information such as IP address and browser details.
• Submitted websites are independent destinations. Following an external link is subject to the destination website's own terms and privacy practices.
• We are not responsible for the privacy practices, availability, security or content of independently operated websites.

11 Payments and subscriptions

• Payments may be processed through an independent payment service selected at checkout. The payment provider processes payment credentials under its own privacy terms.
• We may receive and retain transaction status, payer reference, amount, currency, plan, timestamps, fraud signals and reconciliation information.
• We do not intentionally store complete payment-card numbers, CVV values, online-banking passwords or payment-provider account passwords.
• Refunds, chargebacks, disputes, recurring payments and cancellation requests may require us to exchange relevant transaction information with the payment provider.

12 Communications and email

• We may send operational messages about registration, authentication, security, listings, purchases, support requests, material policy changes and account status.
• Promotional communications, when used, should include a reasonable unsubscribe method where required.
• Even after opting out of promotional messages, you may continue to receive essential transactional or security communications.
• Email delivery providers may process sender, recipient, subject, message content and technical delivery data solely to transmit and secure communications.

13 No sale and limited disclosure

• We do not sell, rent, trade or provide private personal information to unrelated third parties for their independent use.
• Private information may be handled only by narrowly necessary service providers acting for us, such as hosting, infrastructure, email delivery, security, backup, analytics configured for the Service, customer support and payment processing.
• Such providers should receive only information reasonably necessary for their function and are expected to protect it under applicable contractual and legal duties.
• Information may also be disclosed when required by a valid legal process, to protect users or the Service from fraud or harm, to investigate abuse, to enforce rights, or during a legitimate business reorganisation subject to appropriate protection.
• Public profile and listing content is excluded from the private-information promise because it is intentionally published for unrestricted public viewing.
• We do not guarantee that public information will not be copied, indexed or independently used by persons outside our control.

14 Service providers and processors

• Infrastructure providers may host application files, databases, backups, logs and network traffic.
• Email providers may transmit account and support messages.
• Payment providers may process transactions and fraud checks.
• Security providers may analyse traffic patterns, malicious requests and abuse signals.
• We remain responsible for selecting providers appropriate to the function, but each independent provider may also have legal obligations that apply directly to it.

15 Legal requests and safety disclosures

• We may preserve or disclose information when reasonably necessary to respond to binding law, court orders, lawful governmental demands or valid legal process.
• Where legally permitted and appropriate, we may scrutinise requests and limit disclosure to information responsive to the request.
• We may disclose relevant information to investigate fraud, security incidents, intellectual-property complaints, threats, abuse, unlawful conduct or violations of applicable terms.
• Nothing in this Policy promises secrecy where disclosure is legally mandatory or reasonably necessary to protect persons, systems or legal rights.

16 Data retention

• We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, account administration, security, dispute resolution, fraud prevention, backup integrity and legal compliance.
• Active account and listing records may be retained while the account or listing remains active.
• Deleted information may persist for a limited period in backups, security logs, transaction records or records that must be retained by law.
• Public search-engine caches and third-party archives are outside our direct control.
• Retention periods may differ by record type because operational and legal needs differ.

17 Data accuracy and correction

• Users should keep account and listing information accurate, current and not misleading.
• Available account tools may be used to update editable information.
• If an item cannot be corrected through the account, you may submit a verified correction request.
• We may request sufficient information to identify the relevant account or listing and to prevent fraudulent changes.

18 Deletion and account closure

• You may request deletion of your account, listing or eligible personal information through the contact page or available account controls.
• We may verify identity, account control or website authority before acting on a request.
• Deletion requests may be limited where retention is required for security, fraud prevention, transaction reconciliation, legal compliance, dispute resolution or establishment or defence of claims.
• Removing a public listing from our current pages does not instantly remove copies held by search engines, archives or other independent parties.
• Where deletion is not available, restriction, correction or de-identification may be considered when appropriate.

19 Access and information requests

• Subject to applicable law, you may ask for a summary of personal data being processed and information about relevant processing activities.
• Requests should identify the account and clearly describe the information or action sought.
• We may verify identity and may decline or limit requests that are fraudulent, repetitive, technically disproportionate, unlawful, harmful to another person or outside applicable rights.
• Responses may exclude information that would reveal another person's data, compromise security or violate legal restrictions.

20 Consent withdrawal and preferences

• Where processing depends on consent, you may withdraw that consent using the relevant control or by contacting us.
• Withdrawal applies prospectively and does not affect prior lawful processing.
• A feature may become unavailable when the information is necessary to provide it.
• Account, publication, communication and cookie preferences may have separate controls because they serve different purposes.

21 Grievances and complaints

• Privacy complaints may be submitted through the contact page or to the privacy contact shown below.
• Please include enough information to identify the issue without sending passwords or unnecessary sensitive information.
• We will review a verified complaint and respond within a reasonable period appropriate to its nature and applicable law.
• You may pursue any complaint or appeal route available under applicable law after first giving us a reasonable opportunity to address the grievance where required.

22 Security safeguards

• We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss and misuse.
• Measures may include encrypted transport, password hashing, prepared database queries, access controls, logging, rate limits, software maintenance and backup procedures.
• No internet transmission, storage system or security measure is guaranteed to be completely secure.
• Users should use unique passwords, protect email accounts, sign out on shared devices and notify us promptly of suspicious activity.
• Security details may be withheld where disclosure would materially weaken protection.

23 Personal data breaches

• A personal data breach may include unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction of protected personal information.
• We may investigate suspected incidents, contain affected systems, preserve evidence, restore availability and take corrective measures.
• Where applicable law requires notification, we will provide notices to affected persons or authorities in the required manner and timeframe.
• Not every unsuccessful attack, blocked request or technical fault constitutes a personal data breach.

24 Children and age restrictions

• The Service is not intentionally designed to collect personal information from children who cannot lawfully consent to the relevant processing.
• A parent or lawful guardian who believes a child submitted personal information may contact us to request review and removal.
• Age and parental-consent requirements may vary by jurisdiction.
• We do not knowingly use children's personal data for targeted advertising or harmful monitoring.

25 User-generated content

• Users are responsible for ensuring that submitted content is lawful, accurate and appropriate for public display.
• Do not submit another person's personal data unless you have authority and a valid reason to do so.
• We may moderate, restrict or remove content to enforce rules, respond to complaints, protect users or comply with law.
• Moderation does not convert independently submitted content into a private communication.

26 Website ownership and removal claims

• A website owner or authorised representative may request correction or removal of a listing that concerns the website.
• We may request domain-based email confirmation, DNS evidence, website-file verification or another reasonable proof of authority.
• We may preserve limited records of the request and outcome to prevent repeated abuse and document compliance.
• A listing removal does not necessarily require deletion of unrelated security, transaction or legal records.

27 Automated processing and ranking

• The Service may automatically sort, rotate, rank, filter or label listings based on fields such as activity, plan, status, quality, security configuration, popularity or update time.
• Routine automation may also detect spam, duplicates, malicious requests, invalid submissions and suspicious login behaviour.
• We do not represent that every automated result is error-free.
• You may contact us if an automated status materially affects your account or listing and you believe the underlying information is incorrect.

28 Analytics and aggregate information

• We may calculate aggregate statistics such as total users, total listings, page demand, error rates and feature usage.
• Aggregate or de-identified information should not reasonably identify an individual.
• Such information may be used to maintain, understand, report on and improve the Service.
• If information is later linked back to an identifiable person, it will again be treated as personal information.

29 Do Not Track and browser signals

• Browsers may transmit Do Not Track or similar preference signals.
• There is no single universally applied technical standard for all such signals.
• We honour legally mandatory browser-based choices where applicable and otherwise provide the controls described in this Policy.
• Essential security and session processing may continue regardless of optional tracking preferences.

30 International access and processing

• The Service may be accessed from countries other than the country in which its systems or providers are located.
• Information may therefore be processed in jurisdictions with different data-protection laws.
• Where cross-border safeguards are legally required, we will take reasonable steps appropriate to the transfer and service relationship.
• Public profile and listing information is globally accessible by its nature.

31 Data localisation and legal restrictions

• We may select hosting and service locations based on security, reliability, performance and lawful availability.
• We will comply with binding restrictions on transfers or processing that apply to the Service.
• Operational backups may be stored separately from primary systems for resilience.
• This Policy does not promise storage in a particular country unless an express written service term states otherwise.

32 Business changes

• If ownership or control of the Service changes through a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing or asset transfer, relevant information may transfer as part of that transaction.
• Any recipient must handle personal information consistently with applicable law and the commitments applying at the time of transfer.
• Public listing content may transfer with the directory because it forms part of the Service.
• Where required, users will be notified of a material change in controller or use.

33 Third-party links

• The directory contains links to independently operated websites.
• We do not control how those websites collect, use, disclose or secure information.
• A link, listing, badge or screenshot does not constitute a privacy endorsement.
• Review the destination website's privacy notice before supplying it with personal information.

34 Social features and sharing

• If you share a profile or listing through a social platform, the platform may receive the destination URL and ordinary technical request data.
• Content shared to another service becomes subject to that service's rules and privacy practices.
• We do not control copies voluntarily posted by users to external platforms.
• Use public-sharing features only for content you are comfortable making broadly available.

35 Spam, fraud and abuse prevention

• We may analyse registrations, submissions, messages, IP addresses, device signals, account relationships and activity patterns to detect abuse.
• We may restrict, suspend or block accounts, requests or listings that present a security, fraud, spam or legal risk.
• Relevant records may be retained after restriction to prevent repeat abuse and defend decisions.
• Fraud-prevention controls are designed to protect users and the integrity of the Service.

36 Backups and disaster recovery

• Backups may contain copies of account, listing and operational information.
• Backups are maintained for continuity, incident recovery and protection from accidental loss.
• A deletion may not immediately remove every backup copy, but restored data remains subject to the deletion status and should not be returned to ordinary use.
• Backup access should be restricted and monitored.

37 Administrative records

• Authorised administrators may access information necessary to review accounts, listings, payments, support requests, security events and compliance matters.
• Administrative actions may be logged for accountability, debugging and abuse investigation.
• Administrators should not access personal information for unrelated personal purposes.

40 Policy changes

• We may update this Policy when features, practices, legal requirements or service providers change.
• The current version will be posted on this page with an updated effective or revision date.
• Material changes may also be communicated through the Service or available contact details where appropriate.
• Continued use after an update means the revised Policy applies to subsequent use, but it does not replace consent where fresh consent is legally required.

42 India-specific privacy notice

• Where the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and applicable rules govern processing, we aim to provide clear notice, use valid consent where required, apply reasonable security safeguards, maintain a grievance channel and support applicable Data Principal rights.
• Requests may require identity verification and information reasonably necessary to locate the relevant data.
• Users should first raise a grievance through the contact details provided below so that it can be reviewed.
• Nothing in this Policy waives a right or obligation that cannot lawfully be waived.

43 Regional privacy rights

• People in some jurisdictions may have additional rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object, withdraw consent, receive information, complain to an authority or obtain a portable copy.
• The availability and scope of a right depends on the governing law, our role and applicable exceptions.
• We will not unlawfully discriminate against a person for exercising an applicable privacy right.
• A request should specify the jurisdiction and action sought when that information is relevant.

• Do not send your password, one-time code or complete payment credential in a privacy request.
• An authorised agent may be required to provide proof of authority and the account holder may be asked to confirm the instruction.
• Information collected for verification will be used to assess and fulfil the request and to prevent fraud.

45 Response limitations

• If a feature-specific notice conflicts with this general Policy, the more specific notice controls for that feature to the extent permitted by law.
• If any provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply.
