1. Introduction
This Policy applies to Our Processing of your Personal Information when you access and/or use Our Site. This Policy applies to you as a visitor, end-user, representative, or end-customer, as applicable.
This Privacy Policy applies only to your use of Our Site and does not extend to any websites linked to from Our Site (whether We provide those links or they are shared by other users). We have no control over how your data is collected, stored, or used by other websites, and We advise you to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing them with any information.
2. Personal Identification Information We Collect
We may collect personal identification information from Users in a variety of ways, including when Users visit Our Site, subscribe to the newsletter, fill out a form, or engage in other activities, services, features, or resources We make available on Our Site. Users may be asked, as appropriate, for their name, email address, mailing address, and phone number.
Users may visit Our Site anonymously. We will collect personal identification information from Users only if they voluntarily submit such information to Us. Users can always refuse to supply personal identification information, except that doing so may prevent them from engaging in certain Site-related activities.
3. Non-Personal Identification Information We Collect
We may collect non-personal identification information about Users whenever they interact with Our Site. This may include the browser name, type of computer, and technical information about a User's means of connection to Our Site, such as the operating system, the internet service provider used, and other similar information.
4. How We May Use Collected Information
We will use your Personal Information only as described in this Privacy Policy and will Process your Personal Information only if We have a legal basis to do so. We may use your Personal Information to:
- Respond to communications from you
- Carry out market research
- Analyze your use of Our Site
- Gather feedback to enable Us to continually improve Our Site and your user experience
- Adapt your preferences to your experience on Our Site
With your permission and/or where permitted by law, We may also use your Personal Information for marketing purposes, which may include contacting you by email, telephone, text message, post, and/or web push notification with information, news, and offers about Our Services.
We will not send you any spam and will take all reasonable steps to ensure We comply with applicable law in this regard. SARAL may also carry out lead generation activities, such as adding calls to action, buttons, banners, or pop-ups, for companies with a profile page on the website.
Advertisers whose content appears on Our Site may engage in “behavioral advertising” — advertising tailored to your preferences based on your activity. Your activity is monitored using Cookies, as detailed in Section 12. You can control and limit how your information is used in this way by adjusting your web browser's privacy settings. We do not control the activities of such advertisers, nor the information they collect and use. Limiting the use of your Personal Information in this way will not remove the advertising, but it will make it less relevant to your interests and activities on Our Site.
5. Data Retention Period
SARAL retains Personal Information where an ongoing legitimate business need requires it — for example, for litigation or defense purposes, to comply with Our legal obligations, to maintain accurate financial and other records, to resolve disputes, and to enforce Our agreements.
Where there is no need to retain your Personal Information as specified above, We will either delete or aggregate it or, if that is not possible, securely store it and isolate it from further Processing until deletion is possible.
6. Data Security
Your Personal Information is extremely important to Us. We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the Personal Information We collect and Process, designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of Processing your Personal Information. If you have questions about the security of your Personal Information, please contact Us immediately as described in this Policy.
Notwithstanding the security measures We take, transmission of data via the internet may not be completely secure, and you are advised to take suitable precautions when transmitting data to Us over the internet.
7. Disclosure of Information to Third Parties/Partners
We may share your Personal Information with other companies in Our group, including Our subsidiaries and/or Our holding company and its subsidiaries. We may also compile statistics about the use of Our Site — including data on traffic, usage patterns, user numbers, and sales — and share this anonymized, non-identifying data with third parties such as prospective investors, affiliates, partners, and advertisers.
In certain circumstances We may be legally required to share data held by Us, which may include your Personal Information — for example, where We are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legislation, a court order, or a governmental authority. We do not require further consent from you to share your data in such circumstances and will comply with any legally binding request made of Us.
As a visitor, end-user, representative, or end-customer using SARAL's Services, any data you provide in that process may be shared with vendors who may reach out to you in connection with the Services and/or to send you relevant marketing collateral with your permission and/or as permitted by law.
We may contract with third parties to supply products and services to you on Our behalf, including payment processing, delivery of goods, and search engine facilities, among other functions. Where any of your data is required for such a purpose, We will take all reasonable steps to ensure it is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, Our obligations, and the third party's obligations under the law.
We may also share your Personal Information if We merge with or are acquired by another company. In such a case, your information will likely be one of the assets transferred.
8. Children's Privacy
We recognize the importance of children's safety and privacy. We do not request, or knowingly collect, any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 16. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that their child has provided Us with Personal Information, they should write to Us at the email address set out in this Policy.
9. International Transfer of Personal Information
Your Personal Information and files, including backups, are stored on Our servers and the servers of companies We hire to provide services to Us. Your Personal Information may be transferred across national borders, as We have servers located in India and the US, and the companies We hire to help run Our business may be located in different countries.
Information We collect from you may be transferred to and stored in a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), and may be Processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for Us or Our partners. If you are a resident of the EEA, when your Personal Information is Processed outside the EEA, We will ensure the recipient offers an adequate level of protection — for instance, by entering into standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission (Article 46, GDPR 2016) — or We will ask for your prior consent to such international transfers.
10. Summary of Your Rights Under GDPR
A. European Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, you have the following rights:
- Right to be informed : you are entitled to know whether We hold your Personal Information and the purpose for which it is Processed.

We do not engage in such activity; however, if you are a Nevada resident who has purchased goods or services from Us, you may submit a request under Nevada law to opt out of any potential future sales by emailing tech@getsaral.com.

Our Site uses analytics services provided by Google and Facebook to help Us understand how people use Our Site, so We can improve it. Certain analytics Cookies may be placed immediately when you first visit Our Site, before it is possible to obtain your prior consent.
