Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how Best In Bhubaneswar ("we", "us", or "our"), operating at bestinbhubaneswar.in, handles information when you use our website. We keep things simple: we collect only what is necessary, we do not sell your data, and we are transparent about how things work.
1. What Information We Collect
Contact form submissions: When you use our contact form, we receive your name, email address, and the content of your message. This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry and is not stored beyond that purpose.
Automatically collected data: When you visit bestinbhubaneswar.in, our hosting and analytics tools may record basic technical information — such as your approximate location, browser type, referring page, and which pages you visited. This data is aggregated and anonymised; it is never linked to your identity.
Cookies: We use a small number of cookies to keep the site running smoothly and to understand how visitors use our content. No tracking cookies are set without your consent. You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes only:
- To respond to messages and enquiries you send us via the contact form
- To understand which pages and topics are most useful to our readers
- To maintain site security and detect any unusual or abusive activity
- To comply with applicable Indian laws and regulations
We do not use your information for advertising profiling, and we do not share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
3. Third-Party Tools
Best In Bhubaneswar uses Google Analytics to understand site traffic. This service collects anonymised usage data under Google's own privacy policy. We may also embed YouTube videos where relevant; YouTube operates under Google's privacy framework. We recommend reviewing Google's Privacy Policy for full details on their data practices.
We may display advertisements through Google AdSense. AdSense uses cookies to serve relevant ads based on your browsing history. You can opt out of personalised advertising via Google's Ad Settings.
4. Data Retention
Contact form data is retained only as long as needed to address your message — typically no longer than 30 days. Anonymised analytics data is retained for up to 14 months in line with standard practice. We do not maintain user accounts or databases of personal information.
5. Your Rights
You have the right to request access to any personal information we hold about you, to ask for its correction, or to request its deletion. To make such a request, please contact us at hello@bestinbhubaneswar.in. We will respond within 30 days.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last reviewed" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
