Your information should be handled with care and purpose

We may collect personal information that you provide directly to us when you contact Saptarang, register for an event, submit a volunteer or membership form, subscribe to updates, make a donation, or otherwise interact with our website. This may include your name, email address, phone number, postal details, emergency contact information, and other information relevant to your participation in our programs.

We may also collect limited technical information automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and approximate usage data that helps us understand how visitors use the website.

We use personal information to respond to inquiries, manage event registrations, process donations, coordinate volunteers and members, send updates about our activities, improve website performance, and maintain the safety and administration of our programs.

Where required, we also use information to comply with legal, financial, or regulatory obligations related to operating a non-profit organization.

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to support core site functionality, remember preferences, and understand aggregate visitor behavior. These tools help us improve the experience and identify which content is most useful to our community.

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how certain parts of the website function.

Saptarang does not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers or platforms that help us operate the website, manage registrations, process donations, send communications, or support events, but only to the extent reasonably necessary for those services.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect the rights or safety of our organization or community, or in connection with fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or regulatory compliance.

We retain personal information only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to maintain records for events, memberships, donations, volunteer coordination, and legal or accounting obligations.

When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to delete, anonymize, or securely store it in accordance with our operational needs.

We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. No internet transmission or electronic storage method is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Some Saptarang programs may involve youth participation. If personal information relating to a child is collected for an event or community activity, it is expected to be provided by a parent, guardian, or authorized adult. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information inappropriately, contact us and we will review the matter.

Our website may include links to external websites, social media platforms, ticketing or donation providers, and partner organizations. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites, and you should review their privacy policies before sharing information with them.

You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, subject to applicable legal and operational limitations. You may also opt out of non-essential communications by following the unsubscribe instructions in a message or by contacting us directly.

Saptarang may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our activities, legal requirements, or website practices. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
