Data Sharing and Third-Party Service Providers
Personal information is shared only with trusted service providers essential for platform operations, such as secure payment gateways, cloud hosting infrastructure, and email delivery services. All third-party partners are contractually obligated to safeguard data integrity.
We may disclose information where required by judicial order, statutory regulation, or law enforcement direction. Compliance protocols align with statutory standards established under the Information Technology Rules on India Code.
