Privacy Policy
Welcome to Ganak.app ("Ganak", "we", "our" or "us"). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use Ganak, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. By using our Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Information We Do Not Collect
No Account or Personal Details
We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal identification (such as name, email, phone number) to use Ganak. The calculators on our Site operate without needing personal data input beyond the figures you choose to calculate, and those inputs are not stored on our servers.
No Sensitive Personal Data
We do not knowingly collect any sensitive personal data (e.g. financial account info, health data, Aadhaar numbers, etc.). Ganak is a simple calculator platform; any numbers you input for calculation are processed locally in your browser and not sent to us.
Information We Do Collect
While we intentionally minimize data collection, some data is gathered automatically or stored for functionality:
Local Preference Data (Stored on Your Device)
For your convenience, Ganak stores certain preferences and usage data in your own browser using local storage (similar to cookies). This includes your theme preference (light or dark mode) and a list of recently used calculators. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
Analytics Data
Ganak uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to gather basic usage information such as page views, device type, browser type, and aggregated geographic region of visitors. This analytics service does not use cookies or store personal identifiers. It collects anonymized, aggregate statistics which help us understand how the site is used.
Server Logs
When you visit Ganak, our hosting platform (Cloudflare) may record basic technical information in server logs, such as your IP address, browser type, and timestamp of your request. These logs are primarily used for debugging and security, and log data is generally auto-deleted after a short period.
Communications Data
If you choose to contact us via email, we will receive whatever information you decide to send (such as your email address, message content, and any other contact details you include). We will use this information only to correspond with you and address your request or feedback.
How We Use Information
We use the limited information we collect for the following purposes:
To Provide and Maintain the Service
Preference data stored in your browser (theme choice, recent calculators) is used locally to provide a smoother user experience. None of this leaves your device.
Analytics and Improvements
Aggregated analytics data is used to understand overall usage patterns (for example, which calculators are most popular). This helps us improve Ganak's content and performance. All analytics information is anonymized and does not identify you personally.
Communication
If you reach out to us via email, we will use your contact information to respond and resolve any issues or answer questions. We will not use your email for marketing or any purpose beyond addressing your inquiry unless expressly agreed.
Future Developments
Ganak is evolving, and we may introduce new features that involve data. We will always be transparent about new data collection and will update this Privacy Policy accordingly. If in the future we integrate a more detailed analytics service, it will be to further improve our service, and we will ensure compliance with privacy laws.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. Since we currently collect virtually no personal data, there is little to disclose. However, we may share information in the following limited scenarios:
Service Providers
We use trusted third-party service providers to operate and maintain Ganak. Chiefly, our site is hosted by Cloudflare Pages. These providers are obligated to handle any data they process in compliance with applicable privacy standards.
Legal Compliance
If we are required by law to disclose information, we may do so. Since we store minimal data, such scenarios are rare, but we will comply with applicable laws and only provide the minimum necessary information.
Business Transfers
If Ganak is ever involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user information could be transferred to a successor or acquiring entity. We will ensure the new owner is bound to respect the commitments in this Privacy Policy.
We do not currently share personal data for marketing or advertising purposes. We have no third-party ad trackers or social media plugins collecting your data.
Cookies and Local Storage
We have a separate Cookie Policy detailing how we use browser cookies and local storage. In summary, Ganak itself sets no traditional cookies for tracking or advertising. The only "cookies" or similar technologies in use are local storage on your browser for preferences (theme, recent items) and possibly a few technical cookies by Cloudflare for load balancing or bot protection. Cloudflare's analytics script is cookie-free.
Data Security
We take security seriously. Ganak.app is only accessible via secure HTTPS connection. The preference data in your browser is only accessible by the Ganak app running in your browser context. Our third-party providers employ industry-standard security practices.
However, no website is 100% secure. While the lack of sensitive data collection greatly reduces risk, we still encourage you to use a secure network. If you email us, please do not include sensitive personal information for your own protection.
Data Retention
Since we do not collect personal data through the Site, we do not maintain user profiles or databases to purge. Any analytics data collected is aggregated and contains no personal identifiers. Raw server logs are generally retained by our hosting provider for only a short duration. If you communicate with us via email, we may retain your message; you can request that we delete an email thread and we will honor such requests unless required to keep it for legal reasons.
Your Rights and Choices
Even though our data collection is minimal, you still have rights regarding any personal information that might relate to you:
You may request details of any information we have and ask us to correct it if it's inaccurate.
You can request that we delete any personal data we may have. Data stored only on your device (preferences) is under your control — clear your browser's local storage at any time.
Since our current analytics do not identify individuals, there is no personal data to opt out of. You could use browser extensions to block such scripts if you wish.
We do not sell your data. If covered by CCPA or similar laws, you can rest assured we have nothing to sell.
To exercise any rights or ask questions, contact us at [email protected]. We may verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.
Children's Privacy
Ganak is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected]. We will promptly delete such information.
International Users
Although Ganak is primarily designed for users in India, it can be accessed from anywhere in the world. By using Ganak, you understand that your information may be processed in countries outside of your own, including India and the United States. We always handle data as described in this Privacy Policy and take steps to ensure compliance with all applicable data protection regulations including GDPR.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will post a notice on our Site. The "Last Updated" date at the top indicates when the latest changes were made. Your continued use of Ganak after any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.
