Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Veda Foundry (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit vedafoundry.com, contact us about web or mobile development services, or engage us as a client.

This policy applies to our marketing website and general business communications. If you sign a separate data processing or confidentiality agreement for a client project, that agreement will govern project-specific data handling where it differs from this policy.

2. Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly and limited technical data when you use our website.

• Contact details: name, email address, phone number, company name, and project description submitted through forms or email
• Business information: service interests, budget range, timelines, and files you choose to share for scoping
• Communications: messages, meeting notes, and support correspondence related to enquiries or active projects
• Technical data: IP address, browser type, device information, referring URLs, and approximate location derived from IP
• Usage data: pages viewed, time on site, and interactions collected through cookies or analytics tools where enabled

3. How we use information

We use personal information for legitimate business purposes, including:

• Responding to enquiries and preparing proposals for web, mobile, and platform development work
• Delivering contracted Services, managing projects, invoicing, and customer support
• Improving our website, content, and user experience through aggregated analytics
• Sending service-related updates; marketing communications only where permitted or with your consent
• Protecting our website and users, detecting fraud or abuse, and complying with legal obligations

4. Legal bases for processing

Where applicable under data protection laws, we rely on one or more of the following: performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps at your request; legitimate interests in operating and improving our studio and website; compliance with legal obligations; and consent where required (for example, non-essential cookies or certain marketing messages). You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing already performed.

5. How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with trusted service providers who assist us under contract, such as email hosting, cloud infrastructure, analytics, payment processors, and collaboration tools. They may access data only to perform services for us and must protect it appropriately.

We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Veda Foundry, our clients, or others.

6. International transfers

We are based in India and may work with clients and subprocessors worldwide. If personal information is transferred across borders, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards consistent with applicable law and contractual obligations.

7. Data retention

We retain enquiry and project records for as long as needed to provide Services, meet legal and accounting requirements, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Marketing contact data is kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it, subject to legal retention limits.

8. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Cookies and similar technologies

Our website may use essential cookies required for basic functionality and, where configured, analytics cookies to understand traffic and performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect site functionality.

10. Your privacy rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal information, and to data portability where applicable. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise rights, contact vedafoundry.business@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

11. Children’s privacy

Our website and Services are directed to businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

12. Third-party links

Our website may link to client sites, social platforms, or tools we do not control. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We encourage you to review those policies before submitting information on external sites.
