Explore India - Your Taxi Guide is committed to respecting your rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act), India’s primary data protection law. This page explains how we comply with the DPDP Act and how you can exercise your rights as a data principal.

Scope and Applicability

This compliance page applies to all visitors of Explore India - Your Taxi Guide. While we do not collect personal data through user registration or accounts, we may process limited personal data automatically, such as IP addresses, browser type, and usage patterns via analytics tools and cookies, solely for improving website functionality and user experience.

Your Rights Under DPDP

Under the DPDP Act, you have the following rights as a data principal:

• Right to access your personal data processed by us
• Right to correction or completion of inaccurate or incomplete personal data
• Right to withdrawal of consent, where applicable
• Right to grievance redressal if you believe your rights have been violated

Please note: We do not process sensitive personal data or share data with third parties for profiling or targeted advertising.

How We Comply

We comply with the DPDP Act by:

• Collecting only minimal personal data necessary for website analytics
• Using cookies and tracking tools only for functional and statistical purposes
• Ensuring all data processing is lawful, fair, and transparent
• Not retaining personal data longer than necessary
• Providing a clear and accessible channel for exercising your rights

Data We Process

• IP address (anonymized where possible)
• Browser and device information
• Pages visited and time spent on site
• Cookie identifiers for session management

This data is processed solely for improving site performance and user experience. No personal data is stored in identifiable databases.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing of personal data is based on legitimate interest under Section 5 of the DPDP Act, specifically to ensure the proper functioning of our informational website and to provide a seamless experience to visitors. We do not rely on consent for this processing, as it is not required for non-identifying, non-targeted website analytics.
