Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Daanyam Technologies Private Limited ("Daanyam", "we") operates the Daanyam API at business.daanyam.in. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we handle it.

2. Data we collect

Account data: When you sign up, we collect your email address and name (optional). This is used for authentication, billing, and transactional communication.

API request metadata: We log timestamps, endpoint called, response latency, status codes, and your API key identifier. This is used for rate limiting, debugging, and uptime monitoring.

API request bodies: Input data you send (datetimes, geographic coordinates, ayanamsa choice) is processed in memory to compute your response. We do not persist request bodies to disk or any database after the response is returned.

Payment data: Payments are processed by PhonePe or Razorpay. We store a transaction reference ID and payment status. We never see or store your card or UPI details.

3. Data we do NOT collect

  • We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising.
  • We do not embed third-party analytics or ad trackers on this site.
  • We do not collect device fingerprints or IP-based location data for profiling.
  • We do not store birth details, personal horoscope data, or any PII sent via API requests.

4. How we use your data

  • Authenticate API requests and enforce rate limits.
  • Send transactional emails (key issuance, quota warnings, billing receipts).
  • Monitor service health and investigate outages.
  • Respond to support requests.

We do not use your data for marketing, profiling, or sale to third parties.

5. Data storage and security

Account data and request metadata are stored on Google Cloud Platform (asia-south1 region). Data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Access is restricted to Daanyam engineering personnel on a need-to-know basis.

6. Data retention

Account data is retained while your account is active. Request metadata logs are retained for 90 days for operational purposes, then deleted. If you delete your account, all associated data is purged within 30 days.

7. Your rights

You may at any time:

  • Request a copy of the data we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data.

Email support@daanyam.in for any of the above. We respond within 7 working days.

8. Third-party services

We use the following third-party services, each with their own privacy policies: Google Cloud Platform (infrastructure), PhonePe/Razorpay (payments), Cloudflare (CDN and DNS). No user data is shared with these providers beyond what is necessary to operate the Service.

9. Children
