Privacy Policy

This policy explains what personal data Know Your Kundli collects, why, who we share it with and the rights you have under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act). We collect only what we need to run the features you use.

1. Who we are

Know Your Kundli (knowyourkundli.app) is operated by Know Your Kundli ("we", "us"). We are the Data Fiduciary for the personal data described here. Full business and contact details are on our Contact & Grievances page.

2. What we collect and why

  • Account details: your name, email address and sign-in identifier, provided when you sign in with Google or email. Used to create and secure your account.
  • Birth details for charts: name, date, time and place of birth (converted to latitude, longitude and time zone), and any optional remarks. Used to calculate the Kundli, Dasha, Panchang and related results you request. Charts created without signing in are also stored on our servers so you can reopen them from the same browser.
  • Remarks and life events (optional): notes you choose to add to a chart and dated events in that person's life. Please add only what you need.
  • AI questions and answers: the questions you ask and the answers generated, kept so you can see your conversation history.
  • Consultation bookings: your name, mobile number, chosen date and time, topic, message, any linked chart, and the booking's payment, cancellation and refund status. Used to arrange your session with the creator astrologer you chose and to process payments and refunds.
  • Telegram chat ID (optional): if you connect Telegram for booking updates, we store your Telegram chat ID and when you connected it, to send you booking confirmations, reminders and changes. Send /stop to the bot, or disconnect Telegram on your appointments page, to turn the messages off; this removes the chat ID from your account.
  • Payment records: order ID, amount, product and payment status. Card, UPI and bank details are entered with our payment processor, Razorpay, and are never received or stored by us.
  • Technical and security data: IP address and browser type, recorded in server logs and in audit logs for some actions (such as payment verification and administrative changes) to prevent fraud and abuse.

Please do not enter health, financial or other sensitive information in remarks, messages or AI questions unless you need to. We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not sell it.

3. Consent and legal basis

We process your personal data with your consent, which you give when you create an account, generate a chart, book a consultation or make a purchase, and for the legitimate uses permitted by Section 7 of the DPDP Act (for example, complying with law or responding to a legal claim). You can withdraw consent at any time by deleting data in your account or by writing to us (see Section 8). Withdrawal does not affect processing that already took place, and some features will stop working without the data they need.

Other people's details. If you enter someone else's birth details (for example, a family member or a client), you confirm that you have their permission. If that person is under 18, you must be their parent or lawful guardian.

4. Who we share data with

We share personal data only with the service providers below, and only what each one needs:

  • Google Firebase Authentication (Google LLC): sign-in and account security. Receives your email, name and sign-in details.
  • Google Firebase Crashlytics (Google LLC): in the Android and iPhone apps only, receives a report when the app runs into an error: what went wrong and where in the app, the device model, operating system and app version. No account details, birth details or chart data.
  • Google Gemini API (Google LLC): generates answers when you use Ask AI. Receives your question, recent questions in the same conversation, the calculated chart, and the date and time of birth and remarks for that chart. We do not send the person's name or place of birth.
  • Razorpay (Razorpay Software Pvt. Ltd., India): processes payments and consultation refunds. Receives the amount, an order reference, and your name, email and (for consultations) mobile number to prefill checkout.
  • OpenStreetMap Nominatim (OpenStreetMap Foundation): converts the city name or PIN code you type into coordinates. Receives only that search text, sent from our server.
  • Hosting providers: Hetzner Online GmbH (Germany) hosts our servers and database, and Vercel Inc. hosts the website.
  • Telegram: only if you connect it, delivers your booking messages. Receives your chat ID and the message text (such as the astrologer's name, session date and time, booking reference, meeting link and any refund amount).
  • Creator astrologers you contact: when you book a session, the creator astrologer you chose receives your name, mobile number, request details and any linked chart. They use this information only to arrange and conduct your session.

We may also disclose data where required by law, court order or a government authority.

5. Where your data is stored

Our database is hosted in Germany, and some of the providers above process data in other countries, including the United States. The DPDP Act allows such transfers except to countries restricted by the Government of India. We choose providers that apply appropriate security safeguards.

6. How long we keep data

  • Account, chart, remark and AI conversation data: while your account is active, or until you ask us to erase it. Removing a chart in your account hides it from view; to have it permanently erased, ask us (Section 7).
  • After a deletion request we erase your data within 30 days, except records we must keep by law (for example, payment and tax records, which we keep for up to 8 years) and short-lived backups, which are overwritten on their normal cycle.
  • Security and audit logs: kept only as long as needed to investigate abuse or fraud.

7. Your rights

Under the DPDP Act you have the right to:

  • get a summary of the personal data we hold about you and who we have shared it with;
  • have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected or updated;
  • have your data erased, including closing your account;
  • withdraw your consent;
  • nominate another person to exercise these rights if you die or become unable to act; and
  • have your grievances addressed by us (Section 8).

You can edit or remove saved charts and their remarks from your account, and you can delete your whole account yourself in the app or on the website (see Delete your account). For any other request, or if you can't sign in, email support@knowyourkundli.app from the email address on your account.

8. Grievance Officer

For questions, requests or complaints about your personal data, contact our Grievance Officer at support@knowyourkundli.app. We will acknowledge your message within 24 hours and aim to resolve it within 15 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Data Protection Board of India.

9. Security

Data is sent over encrypted HTTPS connections, access to it is limited to people who need it, and passwords are handled by Firebase Authentication, not stored by us. No system is completely secure. If a personal data breach occurs, we will inform you and the Data Protection Board of India as the DPDP Act requires.

10. Children

You must be 18 or older to create an account. We do not knowingly collect data directly from children. A child's birth details may be entered only by their parent or lawful guardian. If you think a child has given us data, please contact us and we will delete it.

11. Cookies and browser storage

We use only storage that is needed for the site to work, and no advertising or analytics trackers. See the Cookie Policy for the full list.

12. Changes to this policy

We will update the date at the top of this page when we change this policy. For significant changes, we will also notify you on the site or by email before they take effect.
