3. Who we share it with

We share only the data needed for each task, with:

  • Government authorities: when required by law.

Some of these providers may store data on servers outside India. Where this happens, we rely on them to protect it as required by Indian law.

4. How long we keep it

  • Orders and invoices: for as long as tax and accounting laws require (currently about 6 years under GST law), then deleted.
  • Enquiries and messages: up to 3 years after our last contact with you, unless you are an ongoing customer.
  • Customer accounts: until you ask us to delete your account, or 3 years of no activity. We will tell you at least 48 hours before deleting an inactive account so you can log in to keep it.
  • Analytics data: up to 14 months, as set in Google Analytics.
  • Security logs: at least 1 year, as required by the DPDP Rules.
