Privacy Policy

Overview

Gitam respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when using our website and services.

Gitam is primarily an educational platform for Bhagavad Gita shlokas, meanings, reflections, and commentary. We collect only the minimum data required to operate the platform, improve quality, and keep the service secure.

By using Gitam, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Depending on how you use Gitam, we may collect:

  • Usage data (pages visited, clicks, time spent) to understand what content is helpful
  • Device & browser info (IP address, browser type, OS) for security and troubleshooting
  • Voluntary information you provide (for example, when contacting us)
  • Preferences (like language selection) to personalize your experience
How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to:

  • Provide and maintain the service (including performance and stability)
  • Improve content quality and user experience (e.g., reflections and shloka navigation)
  • Prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access
  • Respond to messages, support requests, or feedback you send us
Cookies & Analytics

Gitam may use cookies or similar technologies to remember preferences (such as language) and to measure site performance. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some features may not work as expected.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data only in these cases:

  • With trusted service providers (e.g., hosting, analytics) solely to operate Gitam
  • If required by law or to protect rights, safety, and platform security
Data Retention

We retain data only as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, and improve the platform. Anonymous analytics may be retained longer for reporting and trend analysis.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. If Gitam offers account features in the future, you will have options to access, update, or delete your account information.

Children’s Privacy

Gitam is not intended to knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
