Privacy Policy & Data Sovereign Charter
Effective Date: October 25, 2026 • Published by Hanora Studio for the सनातन दैनिक ज्ञान (Sanatan Dainik Gyan) platform.
No Personal Tracking
We do not harvest names, telephone numbers, emails, biometric data, or personal profiles. Shloka exploration and manuscript downloads require no account creation.
Local-Only Rendering
Your customized shloka cards, translations, and theme modifications are rendered directly on your local device GPU canvas, never stored on our external servers.
Zero Data Sales
We never sell, monetize, rent, or lease any visitor telemetry to third-party data brokers, ad exchanges, or commercial profiling corporations.
1. Introduction & Data Controller Identity
Welcome to सनातन दैनिक ज्ञान • Sanatan Dainik Gyan (shlokadaily.in), an educational and cultural web platform operated by Hanora Studio (“we”, “us”, or “our”), registered in the Republic of India.
This Privacy Policy sets forth our principles, legal bases, and technical safeguards regarding the processing of electronic data when you visit our website, utilize our Progressive Web App (PWA), browse Sanskrit verses, interact with our Live Post Canvas Editor, or download educational sacred manuscript cards.
We are dedicated to safeguarding the digital privacy of all visitors in accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act), the Information Technology Act, 2000 (and its applicable rules), the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA).
2. Categories of Information Processed
Our core architecture is intentionally engineered around the principle of Data Minimization:
A. Information We DO NOT Collect:
We do not solicit, require, or record Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as full names, residential addresses, telephone numbers, financial details, credit cards, or biometric data for using our reading and customization features.
B. Local Browser Storage (Client-Side Only):
To provide a seamless reading experience, your browser's localStorage saves non-identifying operational preferences:
- Selected Tradition preference (Mahabharata, Ramayana, Gita, Shiva Purana, Hanuman Chalisa).
- Theme preferences (Parchment, Obsidian, Royal Gold, Sage Forest).
- PWA banner dismissal state and audio synthesizer mute preference.
* Note: This data resides strictly on your physical device and is never transmitted to our backend databases.
C. Technical & Diagnostic Logs:
Standard web server infrastructure (such as hosting and CDN edge nodes) automatically logs transient technical data (IP addresses, user agent strings, HTTP status codes, referring URLs) strictly for DDoS mitigation, load balancing, security inspection, and uptime monitoring. These logs are purged in accordance with standard data retention schedules.
3. Cookies & Cache Architecture
Unlike commercial media portals, Sanatan Dainik Gyan does NOT deploy third-party advertising tracking cookies, retargeting pixels, or behavioral spyware.
- Essential Caching (Service Worker): In production environments, an encrypted Progressive Web App Service Worker (
sw.js) caches static assets (Devanagari font files, sacred emblem icons, CSS bundles) to enable near-instantaneous offline page rendering on mobile devices. - Browser Cache Headers: All public static assets utilize cache headers for optimal speed, while dynamic API calls enforce strict no-cache directives.
4. Content Protection Shield & Security Policy
To preserve the sacred dignity of ancient Sanatan scripture and protect our handcrafted typographic layouts from malicious distortion, commercial counterfeiting, and automated scraper bot exploitation, our website employs a proprietary Content Protection Shield.
- Automated DRM Watermarks: Exported manuscript images dynamically embed cryptographic provenance watermarks and canonical citation metadata.
- Defense Against Scraping: Automated web-scraping bots, unauthorized bulk extractors, and automated screenshot utilities are systematically intercepted.
- Educational Sharing: Genuine devotees, scholars, and learners are warmly encouraged to share downloaded cards for personal, family, and educational study on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Pinterest with citations intact.
5. Third-Party Integrations & External Links
Our service interfaces with select third-party services strictly to provide core platform functions:
A. Official Pinterest API v5 Integration
For administrative and creator publishing workflows, our system integrates with Pinterest API v5. Scopes (boards:read, pins:write, pins:read) are used exclusively to publish authorized educational shloka cards. We do not sell or transfer Pinterest user data to external advertising networks.
B. Google Fonts
To render authentic Devanagari calligraphy (Noto Serif Devanagari, Tiro Devanagari Sanskrit) and classical Latin typefaces (Cinzel, Cormorant Garamond), the site connects to Google Fonts. Google does not collect credentials or personal identity through font delivery.
C. WhatsApp Support Link
Our “WhatsApp Support Desk” links utilize standard WhatsApp Click-to-Chat deep links (wa.me). When initiating a chat, your conversation is governed by WhatsApp's end-to-end encrypted privacy policy.
6. Your Rights Under International Data Laws
Regardless of your geographical location, you maintain sovereign rights regarding your digital interaction:
- Right to Local Erasure: You can completely erase all platform preferences at any time by clearing your browser's site data or cookies for this domain.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You may navigate the platform with JavaScript disabled for static viewing, or utilize private/incognito browsing windows.
- Right to Inquire: You have the right to contact our Grievance Officer to request confirmation that no personal dossier or PII is maintained regarding your identity.
- Non-Discrimination: We do not alter service availability, pricing, or content access based on whether you exercise your privacy rights.
7. Children's Privacy (COPPA & Global Standards)
Sanatan Dainik Gyan provides sacred, ethical, and universally beneficial educational literature suitable for learners of all ages. However, our services are not aimed at collecting personal information from children under the age of 13 (or under 18 in relevant jurisdictions). We do not knowingly solicit, harvest, or store information from minors.
8. Policy Updates & Notifications
We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect technical enhancements, architectural upgrades, or statutory requirements. Any revisions will be accompanied by an updated “Effective Date” at the top of this document.
