Terms of Use

Terms of Use

The terms "We" / "Us" / "Our" / "Organisation" individually and collectively refer to ‘Sakti’ and the terms "You" / "Your" / "Yourself" refer to the users.


This Privacy Policy is an electronic record in the form of an electronic contract formed under the Information Technology Act, 2000, and the rules made thereunder and the amended provisions pertaining to electronic documents/records in various statutes as amended by the Information Technology Act, 2000. This Privacy Policy does not require any physical, electronic, or digital signature.


This Privacy Policy is a legally binding document between you and ‘Sakti’ (both terms defined below). The terms of this Privacy Policy will be effective upon your acceptance of it (directly or indirectly in electronic form, by clicking on the I accept tab or by use of the website or by other means) and will govern the relationship between you and for your use of the website "www.sakti.org.in" (defined below).


This document is published and shall be construed in accordance with the provisions of the Information Technology (reasonable security practices and procedures and sensitive personal data or information) rules, 2011, under Information Technology Act, 2000; which require publishing of the Privacy Policy for collection, use, storage and transfer of sensitive personal data or information.


Please read this Privacy Policy carefully: by using the website, you indicate that you understand, agree, and consent to this Privacy Policy. If you disagree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use this website.


By providing us with your information or using the facilities provided by the website, you hereby consent to the collection, storage, processing, and transfer of any or all of your Personal Information and Non-Personal Information by us as specified under this Privacy Policy. You further agree that such collection, use, storage, and transfer of your information shall not cause any loss or wrongful gain to you or any other person.


USER INFORMATION

To avail of specific services on our website, users must provide certain information for the registration process, namely: - a) your name, b) email address, c) mobile number, etc., and/or your occupation, interests, and the like. The information supplied by the users enables us to improve our site and provide you with the most user-friendly experience.


All required information is service dependent, and we may use the user information above to maintain, protect, and improve services (including advertising services) and develop new services.


Such information will not be considered sensitive if it is freely available and accessible in the public domain or is furnished under the Right to Information Act, 2005, or any other law for the time being in force.


COOKIES

To improve the responsiveness of our site for our users, we may use "cookies" or similar electronic tools to collect information to assign each visitor a unique, random number as a User Identification (User ID) to understand the user's individual interests using the Identified Computer. Unless you voluntarily identify yourself (through registration, for example), we will have no way of knowing who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer. The only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply (an example of this is when you ask for personalised services). A cookie cannot read data off your hard drive. Our advertisers may also assign their own cookies to your browser (if you click on their ads), a process we do not control.


Our web servers automatically collect limited information about your computer's connection to the Internet, including your IP address, when you visit our site. (Your IP address is a number that lets computers attached to the Internet know where to send you data -- such as the web pages you view.) Your IP address does not identify you personally. We use this information to deliver our web pages to you upon request, tailor our site to our users' interests, measure traffic within our site, and let advertisers know the geographic locations from where our visitors come.


LINKS TO THE OTHER SITES

Our policy discloses the privacy practices for our own website only. Our site provides links to other websites also that are beyond our control. We shall in no way be responsible in way for your use of such sites.



INFORMATION SHARING

We share sensitive personal information with any third party without obtaining the prior consent of the user in the following limited circumstances:


(a) When it is requested or required by law or any court or governmental agency or authority to disclose, for the purpose of verification of identity, or the prevention, detection, investigation including cyber incidents, or for prosecution and punishment of offences. These disclosures are made in good faith and the belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms; for compliance with the applicable laws and regulations.


(b) We propose sharing such information within group organisations and officers and employees of such group organisations to process personal data on its behalf. We also ensure that the recipients of such information agree to process such information based on our instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.


INFORMATION SECURITY

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorised access to or unauthorised alteration, disclosure, or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage, and processing practices and security measures, including appropriate encryption and physical security measures to guard against unauthorised access to systems where we store personal data.


All information gathered on our website is securely stored within our host’s database (BigRock). The database is stored on servers secured behind a firewall; access to the servers is password-protected and is strictly limited. However, as effective as our security measures are, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our database, nor can we guarantee that the information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet. And, of course, any information you include in a posting to the discussion areas is available to anyone with Internet access.


The internet is an ever-evolving medium. We may change our Privacy Policy periodically to incorporate necessary future changes. Of course, our use of any information we gather will always be consistent with the policy under which the information was collected, regardless of the new policy.


Grievance Redressal

Redressal Mechanism: Any complaints, abuse, or concerns about content and/or comment or breach of these terms shall be immediately informed to the designated Grievance Officer mentioned below in writing or through email signed with an electronic signature.
