Privacy Policy
Effective year: [2025]
At Samvahak Foundation, accessible from www.samvahak.in, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal data is handled with care, respect, and in compliance with applicable laws. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information when you visit our website or interact with us in any way.
Information We Collect
We collect both personal and non-personal information from users to help us serve our mission more effectively. Personal information is collected when you voluntarily provide it through forms on our website—such as when you donate, sign up for our newsletter, volunteer, or contact us. This may include your full name, email address, phone number, residential address, PAN or Aadhaar (for donation receipts), and payment details. These payment details are processed securely through trusted third-party services.
In addition, we may automatically collect non-personal information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and the pages you visit on our website. This data helps us understand how visitors use our site and improve its functionality.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect primarily to respond to your queries, process donations, issue receipts, provide updates and impact reports, and communicate our work. We may also use your data to improve the performance and usability of our website and to comply with legal obligations, including income tax and regulatory reporting.
Sharing of Information
We want to assure you that Samvahak Foundation does not sell or rent your personal data to any third party. However, we may share your information with trusted service providers such as secure payment gateways, email communication tools, or legal advisors—strictly for the purposes described above. These service providers are bound by confidentiality obligations and are required to use your data only in accordance with our instructions and applicable law. We may also disclose your information to government or regulatory authorities if required to do so by law.
Data Security
We employ appropriate security measures—both technical and organizational—to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, loss, or disclosure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure. We recommend that you also take precautions while sharing sensitive data online.
Your Rights
As a data subject, you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These include the right to access, update, or correct your personal information, the right to withdraw consent, and the right to request deletion of your data. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. To exercise any of these rights, you can contact us at samvahakfoundation@gmail.com .

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience and gather usage statistics. You can manage your cookie preferences through your web browser settings.

Our website may contain links to external sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such third-party websites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before sharing any personal data.
Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18 without parental or guardian consent. If you believe a child has shared personal data with us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.
