Privacy Policy

Last updated: 18 October 2026

BMS Cultivator ("I", "me", "my") runs this website. This policy explains what information I collect when you use the site, how I use it, and what choices you have.

1. Information I collect

Information you give me

• When you use the Contact / Grievance form, I collect your name, email address, the type of message (contact or grievance) and your message.
• When you fill in the Google Form linked on this site, I collect the answers you submit there.
• When you message me on WhatsApp, Telegram or Arattai, I see your name or number and whatever you send.
• When you support my work, the payment is made on a Razorpay page. I receive confirmation of the payment and the details Razorpay shares with me, such as your name, the amount, and your email or phone number if you give them. I do not see or store your card, UPI PIN or bank login details.

Information collected automatically

• This site uses Google Analytics to count visits and understand which pages are used. It collects usage data such as pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type. I do not use it for advertising.
• Like any website, the hosting provider may keep basic technical logs, such as IP address, browser type and the time of your visit, for security and operation.

2. How I use your information

• To reply to your messages and grievances.
• To share information about my self-cultivation practices when you ask for it.
• To confirm and thank you for your support payment, and to keep records of it.
• To keep the site secure and working.

I do not sell your personal information. I do not use it for advertising.

3. Third-party services

The site uses these services, each with its own privacy policy:

• Razorpay processes support payments. When you click Support Me, you leave this site and your payment details are handled by Razorpay under its own terms and privacy policy.
• Web3Forms delivers the contact form messages to my email.
• Google Forms collects responses when you use the form link.
• Google Analytics measures site traffic and may set cookies in your browser.
• Google Fonts loads the fonts, so your browser connects to Google servers when the page loads.
• WhatsApp, Telegram, Arattai, YouTube and Instagram are linked from this site. Once you open them, their own policies apply.

4. Cookies

Google Analytics sets cookies to tell visits apart. For visitors in Europe and the UK, it loads only after you press Accept on the cookie notice. You can block them in your browser or with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. Analytics data is anonymous usage data and is kept in Google Analytics for the retention period set in my account (up to 14 months). Third-party services you open from here, such as Razorpay, YouTube or Google Forms, may set their own.

5. How long I keep your information

I keep your messages only as long as needed to respond and to resolve any grievance. After that, I delete them within a reasonable time. Payment records are kept for as long as the law requires for accounting and tax purposes.

6. Sharing

I share your information only when:

• the law requires it, or
• it is needed to protect my rights, the site or other people, or
• it is passed through the service providers listed above, only to run the services.

7. Security

I take reasonable steps to protect your information. No method of sending data over the internet is fully secure, so I cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your rights

You can ask me to tell you what personal information I hold about you, correct it, delete it, or stop using it. Write to me using the contact details below, and I will respond within a reasonable time. Some payment records may need to be kept by law, even after a deletion request.

9. Children

This site is meant for adults. I do not knowingly collect information from children under 18. If you believe a child has sent me information, contact me and I will delete it.

10. Practice and health

The content on this site is for general self-cultivation and learning. It is not medical advice. Consult a qualified professional before starting any physical or breathing practice if you have a health condition.

11. Changes to this policy

I may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when I do.

12. Contact and grievance

For any question, request or grievance about this policy:
