This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect from you, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights available to you under Indian law — principally the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (“DPDP Act”), the Information Technology Act, 2000, and the rules made under it.
Under the DPDP Act, Digital Factory acts as a Data Fiduciary in relation to the personal data of our clients and website visitors (Data Principals).
By using our website, purchasing a package (Launch, Grow, or Scale), submitting our project intake form, or otherwise interacting with us, you agree to the practices described in this Policy.
Information We Collect
We collect only what is reasonably necessary to deliver our services. Depending on how you interact with us, this includes:
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
- Business name, industry/category, city or service area

- Contact details: name, email address, phone number, WhatsApp number

b) Information collected automatically
- Basic usage data when you visit our website (pages viewed, approximate location by IP, browser/device type) via standard analytics tools
- Cookies necessary for the website and checkout flow to function (see Section 6)
c) Information from payments
We do not collect or store your card, UPI, or net-banking details. Payments are processed by Razorpay, a licensed payment aggregator, which handles and secures this information directly. We receive confirmation of payment and a transaction reference, not your financial credentials.
d) Information from connected third-party accounts
If you choose to link an existing Google Business Profile, Facebook, Instagram, or similar account during onboarding, we access only what is necessary to set up or manage that listing on your behalf, with your authorisation.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data (health records, biometric data, financial account numbers, etc.) beyond what is described above.
Why we collect it (purpose)
We use your information only for purposes you would reasonably expect from a business you’ve engaged, specifically to:
- Build and deliver your Launch, Grow, or Scale package as described on our Packages page

We do not sell your personal data to third parties, and we do not use your data to send unsolicited marketing to third-party lists.
Legal basis for processing
Under the DPDP Act, we process your personal data on the basis of:
- Your consen, given when you submit our intake form, make a purchase, or otherwise voluntarily provide information to us; and
- Legitimate use necessary to perform the contract you enter into with us when purchasing a package, and to comply with applicable law (e.g. GST invoicing, tax records).
You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us (Section 12), though this may affect our ability to continue delivering an in-progress project.
Who we share information with

We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or a valid request from a government authority in India.
Cookies and tracking
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:
