HOW WE HANDLE POLICY

Open Your Account Knowing How We Protect It

From the moment you register, your data and account are governed by the practices below.

Data Collection Scope

We collect only the data needed to operate your account — name, contact details, payment identifiers for UPI, Paytm or PhonePe, and session activity logs. No surplus data is requested at registration or during normal account use.

Cookie Handling

Cookies on punamatka are used to maintain your session, remember display preferences and analyse aggregate traffic patterns. You can manage or withdraw cookie consent through the preference centre in your account settings at any time.

Account Security Practices

We use encrypted connections for all account pages, two-step verification on login from new devices, and automated alerts when your account is accessed from an unrecognised IP address or location in India.

Data Retention Schedule

Active account data is retained for as long as your account remains open. After closure, we keep transaction records for the period required by applicable Indian financial regulations, then delete or anonymise all personal data.

Your Right to Request Changes

You may request a copy of your personal data, ask for corrections, or request deletion by contacting our policy team. We process verified requests within the timeframe mandated by applicable data protection law.

Who to Contact for Disputes

Any formal dispute about how your data is handled or how these terms are applied should be directed to our compliance contact via the email address listed in your account's Policy section. Escalation paths are documented in your account portal.

Switch to the Answers You Need on Legal Matters

These questions cover the most common points about your rights, data handling and how our terms work in practice. If your question is not addressed here, reach us directly through the contact paths in the section above.

These terms apply to anyone who opens or uses a punamatka account where local law permits. Access is jurisdiction-dependent — if local law in your state or region restricts participation, those restrictions take precedence over anything stated here.

Submit a data access request via the Policy section in your account settings or email our compliance team directly. We verify your identity first, then deliver a full data export within the statutory timeframe under applicable law.

Yes. Close your account through settings and submit a deletion request. We remove personal data after the mandatory retention period required by Indian financial regulations, then confirm deletion to your registered email or phone number.

We use session cookies to keep you logged in, preference cookies to remember your display settings, and analytics cookies to understand aggregate traffic. You can withdraw consent for non-essential cookies from the preference centre in your account at any time.

We share data only with payment processors such as UPI, Paytm and PhonePe to complete transactions, and with regulatory authorities when required by law. We do not sell your personal data to advertisers or unrelated third parties.

We notify you of material changes through your registered contact details before the update takes effect. Continuing to use your account after notification is treated as acceptance. You may request account closure before changes take effect if you do not agree.

Send a written notice to the compliance contact listed in your account's Policy section. We acknowledge all formal disputes within two working days and aim to resolve them within the period specified by applicable Indian consumer and data protection law.
