Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30 August 2026
This policy explains what information The Savvy Humanities collects from you, why we collect it, and what you can do about it. We have tried to write it in plain English rather than legal jargon.
The Savvy Humanities is owned and operated by Aditi Ojha, an individual proprietor based in Howrah, West Bengal 711106, India.
Information we collect
We only ask for what we actually need:
- When you contact us or join the notes waitlist: your name, email address, the class and subject you are studying, and whatever you write in your message.
- When you buy something: your name, email address and billing details. We never see or store your card, UPI or net-banking details — payments are handled entirely by Razorpay, our payment provider.
- Automatically: basic technical information such as your browser type and pages visited, through cookies. This is used to keep the site working and to understand roughly how it is used.
Students under 18
Most of our students are in Class 11 and 12, and many are under 18. Indian law (the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023) requires a parent or guardian to consent before a child’s personal data is processed.
- Every form on this site asks you to confirm that you are 18 or older, or that you have your parent or guardian’s permission.
- We do not knowingly collect personal data from a child without that confirmation.
- We do not track children for advertising, and we do not show behavioural or targeted ads to anyone.
- If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has given us information without your permission, email us and we will delete it.
Why we use your information
- To reply to your message or question
- To tell you when notes you asked about are ready
- To deliver and support anything you have purchased
- To keep records required by Indian tax and consumer law
- To keep the website secure and working properly
We do not sell your information, rent it, or share it with advertisers.
Who we share information with
Only the services we need to run the site, and only what they need:
- Razorpay — to process payments securely
- Hostinger — website and email hosting
- Government authorities, if we are legally required to disclose something
Cookies
This site uses cookies to keep it functioning and to remember your preferences. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; some parts of the site may not work properly if you do.
How long we keep your information
Enquiries and waitlist entries are kept for as long as they are useful and then deleted. Purchase and payment records are kept for as long as Indian tax and accounting law requires. You can ask us to delete your data sooner.
Your rights
You can ask us to:
- Tell you what personal data we hold about you
- Correct anything that is wrong
- Delete your data
- Withdraw consent you previously gave
- Nominate someone to exercise these rights on your behalf
Just email us and we will act on it within a reasonable time, at no cost to you.
Keeping your data safe
The site runs over an encrypted HTTPS connection and access to our systems is limited. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information and will tell you if something goes seriously wrong.
Grievances
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, contact the person responsible for privacy at The Savvy Humanities:
