Privacy Policy

Occult Science Academya ("we", "us", "our") provides personalised Vedic astrology, numerology and energy reading services online, operating from India and serving clients in India and internationally. This Privacy Policy applies to the website occultscienceacademy.com and all related booking, consultation and communication channels.

By using our website or booking a consultation, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

To deliver a personalised reading, we collect only what is necessary:

• Identity and contact details — your name and email address, plus a phone number only if you choose to give one.
• Birth details — your date, time and place of birth, provided voluntarily for chart preparation.
• Consultation information — the questions, concerns and context you choose to share before or during a session.
• Payment information — processed securely by our payment partner. We do not store your card numbers, CVV or banking credentials on our servers.
• Technical and usage data — IP address, browser type, device information and pages visited, collected automatically through cookies and analytics tools.

We use the information we collect to prepare and deliver your consultation and reports, to schedule and confirm your sessions, to respond to your enquiries, to issue invoices, to process payments, to send you your deliverables, to improve our website and services, and to meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

We will only send you promotional communication if you have opted in, and you may withdraw that consent at any time.

Payments are handled by Razorpay, a third-party payment processor. When you make a payment, your financial details are submitted directly to Razorpay under their own secure, PCI-DSS-compliant systems. We receive only confirmation of payment and limited transaction details — never your full card or bank information.

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to understand how visitors use the site and to measure the performance of our advertising. These tools may collect anonymised usage data. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, though some features of the site may not function as intended.

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We share it only with:

• Service providers who help us operate — payment processing, hosting, email, scheduling and analytics providers — all bound by confidentiality obligations.
• Authorities or legal bodies, where disclosure is required by law or regulation, or to protect our legal rights.

We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, loss or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You share information with us at your own discretion.

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our services, to maintain records of transactions for tax and accounting purposes, and to comply with applicable law. When information is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Subject to applicable law — including India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act and, for international clients, regulations such as the GDPR — you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to request correction of inaccurate data, to request deletion of your data, and to withdraw consent to processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.

Our services are intended for individuals aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us with information, please contact us so we can remove it.

We serve clients outside India. If you access our services from another country, please note that your information may be transferred to, stored and processed in India, where our operations are based. By using our services, you consent to this transfer.

Our website and communications may contain links to third-party sites, such as social media or payment pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their policies.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

For any questions about this Privacy Policy or your personal data, email us at occultscienceacademya@gmail.com and we will respond within 24 hours.
