Privacy policy

This policy explains what information Arka Markets ("we", "us") collects when you use Arka Debut and our other Arka tools (the "Services"), why we collect it, and the choices you have. The Services are private and invitation-only.

What we collect

• Your Google account email address, when you sign in with Google. We use it to know who you are and what access you have. We do not receive your Google password.
• Your name and an optional note, if you ask for access, so the owner can decide on your request.
• Your access record: whether you asked for, were given or were refused access, your role, and when.
• Usage records: which pages you open in Arka Debut and when, the kind of device and browser, and the country your connection comes from. We keep these to see how the Services are used and to improve them. Only Arka Markets' editors can see them. We do not keep your IP address in them.
• Basic technical records, kept briefly to run and protect the Services.

We do not use outside analytics, advertising or tracking tools, and we do not sell or share your usage records.

How we use it

• To sign you in and give you the access the owner approved.
• To email you about your access request: when it is received, approved or declined.
• To keep the Services secure and working.

Who else handles it

• Google confirms your identity when you sign in with Google.
• Cloudflare carries traffic to the Services and checks each sign-in.
• Gmail delivers our emails to you.

Each handles your information under its own privacy terms. We do not sell, rent or share your information with anyone else, except where the law requires it.

Cookies

We use only the cookies needed to keep you signed in. They are removed when you sign out or when the sign-in expires.

Where it is kept, and for how long

Your access record is stored on a computer run by Arka Markets in India. We keep it while you have access and remove it when you ask us to, or when your access is removed and the record is no longer needed. Usage records are deleted after 180 days. Technical records are kept for a short time only.

Your choices

You can ask to see, correct or delete your information, or withdraw your consent and stop using the Services, at any time. Write to arkamarkets9@gmail.com and we will reply within 30 days.

Children

The Services are not meant for anyone under 18.

Changes

If we change this policy, we will update the date above and, for important changes, tell users by email.
