This Privacy Policy explains how BLUDOZ DIGITAL MARKETING (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles personal data when you use the IPO Index website at https://ipoindex.in/ and the IPO Index mobile application (together, the “Service”).
This Policy should be read together with our Terms of Use at https://ipoindex.in/terms-of-use/, which govern your use of the Service.
The Service is delivered through a website and a mobile application. Where a data practice applies to only one of the two platforms, we say so.
The website publishes IPO-related information, displays advertising through Google AdSense, and may contain outbound links to brokers or financial services.
The official IPO Index mobile application, available through app stores, provides access to IPO information on mobile devices.
Contact, security, and service-operation practices described in this Policy apply to both platforms unless stated otherwise.
We handle the following categories of data when you use the Service. Each entry explains where the data comes from, why it is handled, and how long it is kept.
Data You Provide
When you contact us by email or through the contact page, we receive the details you choose to send, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this information to respond to your enquiry or grievance. We keep it while the enquiry is open and for a reasonable period afterwards as needed for record-keeping, unless a longer period is required by law.
Data Collected Automatically
When you access the website or the app, our servers and infrastructure providers automatically receive technical information that is necessary to deliver and secure the Service. This typically includes your IP address, the type of browser or app version you are using, the time of your request, and the page or resource you requested. We use this information to operate and secure the Service, prevent abuse, and diagnose faults, and it is retained for a limited operational period determined by our hosting configuration and log rotation before being deleted or anonymized.
Analytics
Where analytics tools are enabled on the website or app, they collect information about how the Service is used, such as which pages or screens are viewed and how long visitors stay. Analytics tools may generate identifiers for each device or installation in order to distinguish users and produce reports. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings configured in each analytics tool. You can limit analytics collection through the controls available on your browser or device.
Advertising on the Website
The website displays advertising through Google AdSense. When advertising is shown, Google and its partners may set cookies or similar identifiers on your browser and receive information about your visit, including your approximate location derived from your IP address and the pages you view. This information is used to display and measure advertising. By default, the website loads advertising cookies when you visit pages that contain ads. You can control personalized advertising through the settings described in Section 5.
If we later enable additional analytics, advertising, diagnostics, or tracking tools, we will update this Policy before or when those tools begin collecting data, and we will disclose the categories of data involved and the applicable controls.
We handle personal data only for specific and limited purposes. In summary, we handle data to:
Where consent is required for a specific activity, such as certain forms of personalized advertising, we rely on your consent, and you may withdraw it at any time. For other activities, we handle data because it is necessary to provide the Service you requested, to operate and secure the Service, or to comply with the law. If you have questions about the basis on which we handle a specific category of data, please contact us.
The website uses cookies and similar technologies. They fall into the following categories.
Google AdSense
The website uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our site and other sites on the Internet.
You can control personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings and opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info. Turning off personalized advertising does not remove all advertising or disable all cookies — essential and analytics cookies may continue to operate, and you may still see non-personalized ads.
App
The mobile app does not use website cookies. It may access device-level information and use app-specific tools to function. You can control app permissions and notification settings through your device’s settings. Uninstalling the app stops the app from collecting data on your device going forward, but does not by itself delete data that has already been sent to us or to our providers. If you would like us to delete data associated with your use of the app, you may contact us at contact@ipoindex.in.
We share personal data only with the categories of recipients described below, and only for the purposes set out in this Policy.
Outbound links on the website may take you to third-party websites, including broker or financial services websites. Those sites operate under their own privacy policies, and we do not control what they collect or how they use it. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal data to them.
If the business or its assets are transferred, merged, or reorganized, personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction. If that happens, we will update this Policy to reflect the change.
We do not sell personal data to third parties for their own independent marketing purposes.
We retain personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this Policy, or as required by applicable law. Specific retention periods depend on the category of data and the tools in use.
When we delete data, we may delete it entirely or anonymize it so that it can no longer be linked to you. In some cases, we may need to retain certain data to comply with a legal obligation, resolve a dispute, or enforce our agreements.
We take reasonable steps to protect personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These steps include technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data and the way the Service is operated.
No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please take care to protect any credentials associated with your use of the Service, and let us know promptly if you believe your data has been compromised.
If you suspect a privacy or security issue, please contact us at contact@ipoindex.in with enough detail for us to investigate.
Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:
How to Make a Request
Send your request to contact@ipoindex.in with enough detail to identify you and describe what you are asking for. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests. We will respond within a reasonable period.
Grievances
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may escalate your grievance by writing again to contact@ipoindex.in. Where available under applicable law, you may also lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority.
The Service is intended for adults. It is not designed for, and is not directed at, children. Under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, a “child” is an individual under the age of 18. Where the law requires verifiable parental consent for processing a child’s personal data, and where that obligation applies to our processing, we will seek such consent before processing.
We do not knowingly collect personal data from children without the consent required by applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us without appropriate consent, please contact us at contact@ipoindex.in and we will take reasonable steps to address the situation, including deletion where appropriate.
For further information about who may use the Service, please refer to our Terms of Use at https://ipoindex.in/terms-of-use/.
Some of the service providers we use to operate the Service may process personal data outside India. Where personal data is processed outside India, we take steps that are appropriate to the nature of the data and the applicable law. If you would like more information about how and where your data is processed, please contact us at contact@ipoindex.in.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will publish the updated version on this page with a revised “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice on the website or in the app.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
