Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Gardener Support India (operated by Alden Thorne) collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit our website kheduthelp.in. We are committed to respecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about the data we handle through standard web technologies.

Information We Collect

When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information through standard web technologies. This includes:

• IP address and approximate geographic location
• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Pages visited and time spent on site
• Referral sources (e.g., search engines or other websites)

We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or any other personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily provide it through contact forms — and even then, it is not stored in a database.

How We Use Information

The information collected is used solely for the following purposes:

• To understand how visitors interact with our content and improve user experience
• To analyze traffic patterns and optimize site performance
• To deliver relevant and useful gardening content based on general usage trends
• To ensure the website functions correctly and securely

We do not use this data for targeted advertising, profiling, or commercial sale.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences and analyze site usage.

Types of cookies we use include:

• Essential cookies: Necessary for the website to function properly
• Analytics cookies: Used by third-party services like Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site
• Preference cookies: Remember your language or region settings

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some features on our site.

Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party services to help us operate and improve our website:

• Google Analytics: To collect anonymous traffic and usage data in compliance with privacy standards
• Advertising networks: We may use ad networks such as Google AdSense to display non-targeted, contextual ads based on page content — not personal data
• Content delivery networks: To ensure fast and secure access to our content

These third parties have their own privacy policies and are responsible for their own data practices. We do not control or have access to their data collection methods beyond what is disclosed in their policies.

Data Security

We implement industry-standard measures to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the data we collect. This includes secure servers, HTTPS encryption, and regular security reviews. However, please note that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information.

Under Indian data protection guidelines and international best practices, you have the following rights regarding your data:

• The right to know what data is being collected
• The right to request deletion of your data if voluntarily provided
• The right to withdraw consent for cookie usage at any time

Our website is intended for general audiences and is not directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete it immediately.
