Privacy Policy
What we collect, why, and what happens to it. In short: very little, and never your financial data.
01Who we are
Niyantrak Consulting LLP, a limited liability partnership registered in India, with its registered office at 7/A Raj Rajeshwari Society, Nr. Chandranagar, Narayannagar Road, Paldi, Ahmedabad 380007, Gujarat, India, is the data fiduciary / controller responsible for the personal data described in this policy.
Questions about privacy should go to NiyantrakConsulting@outlook.com.
02The software collects nothing
Niyantrak Budgeting runs entirely on your own computer. Your budgets, actual figures, prices, costs, customer and product master data, and every report you produce are stored locally on that machine and nowhere else.
We do not receive, transmit, upload, host or have any means of accessing that information. The application works fully offline. There is no cloud account, no synchronisation and no telemetry.
Everything in the rest of this policy therefore concerns only our website and the process of buying a licence, not the software itself.
03What we collect
When you download the software
The software is free to download and free to evaluate for as long as you like. We ask for a few details first, so that we know who is evaluating it and can send you the download link and help you get started.
| Data | Why we need it |
|---|---|
| Your name | To address the email that carries your download link |
| Email address | To send you the download link and a short guide to setting the software up |
| Company name | To know which organisation is evaluating the software |
| Business type | To understand which industries the product is used in |
| Number of companies you would run in it | To understand the scale our users work at, and to give relevant help |
The email that follows a download is the delivery of the thing you asked for, together with instructions for using it. If you also want occasional notes on cost control, or to hear about a licence later, there is a separate tick box on the form, and you may untick it or unsubscribe at any time. Leaving it unticked does not affect your download.
When you buy a licence
| Data | Why we need it |
|---|---|
| Group Company Name | Printed on your licence key and fixed in the software as your organisation's name; appears on your invoice |
| Contact person's name | To address your licence email and invoice |
| Email address | To deliver your licence key and invoice, and for support |
| Telephone number | To reach you if a payment or delivery problem arises |
| Billing address and country | Required on the invoice and to determine the correct tax treatment |
| Business type | To understand which industries use the product |
| Tax registration number (optional) | Printed on your invoice where reverse-charge treatment applies |
When you use the enquiry form
Your name, company, email address, business type, the service you are interested in, and whatever you write in the message box.
Payment information
We never see your card, UPI or bank details. Payments are processed entirely by Razorpay on their own secure systems. We receive only a payment reference, the amount, the method used (for example "card" or "netbanking"), and, for cards, the network and last four digits, which appear on your invoice.
04Why we process it, and on what basis
- To perform our contract with you, by issuing your licence key, delivering it, and providing support;
- To comply with legal obligations, by issuing and retaining invoices and maintaining accounting records as Indian law requires;
- For our legitimate interests, by responding to enquiries, keeping records of sales, understanding who evaluates the software, and protecting against misuse of licence keys;
- With your consent, where you have ticked the box asking for further messages from us. That consent is separate from the download itself, and withdrawing it never affects your access to the software.
We do not sell your data. We do not share it for anyone else's marketing. We do not use it to build advertising profiles. We send marketing email only to people who have asked for it, and every such email carries a one-click unsubscribe.
05Who else is involved
A small number of service providers process data on our behalf, strictly to deliver the service:
| Provider | Role | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Razorpay | Payment processing; stores the purchase details attached to your payment | India |
| Resend | Sends your licence key email and invoice | European Union (Ireland) |
| Netlify | Hosts this website and the code that issues licence keys | United States |
| Cloudflare | Stores the installer file and serves it through a private, expiring download link | United States |
| Advertising measurement on this website (see Cookies below) | United States |
Because these providers operate in different countries, your data may be processed outside India, and for visitors in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom it may be processed outside those regions. Where that happens we rely on the providers' own standard contractual protections. We do not otherwise transfer your data abroad.
06Cookies and website measurement
This website uses a Google advertising tag, which sets cookies to measure whether visits to the site result from our advertising. It records technical information such as your IP address, browser and pages viewed.
We ask first. On your first visit a short bar asks for your choice: Accept all, Decline all, or Choose, by category. Necessary storage keeps the site working (it remembers your choice and keeps the Controller chat open in your browser tab) and is always on; it sends nothing to anyone. Statistics lets Google count visits and pages read. Marketing is the Google advertising cookie that measures whether our ads bring people here. Until you allow a category, Google's tag is held in a consent-denied state for it and writes no cookie for it.
Change your mind at any time. "Cookie settings" at the foot of every page opens your choice again, shows when you made it, and lets you change it or withdraw it. If you withdraw, we remove the Google cookies this site may have set in your browser. Your choice is kept locally on your own device, not on our servers.
We use no other analytics, no advertising networks, and no social media trackers. The Controller chat on this website runs in your browser and sends nothing to us unless you choose to send an enquiry. The checkout and licence-delivery process does not depend on cookies. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time without affecting your ability to buy or use the software.
07How long we keep it
- Purchase records, invoices and licence records, for eight years, as Indian accounting and tax record-keeping requires;
- Download records, for up to two years, then deleted. If you unsubscribe or ask us to erase them, we delete them at once;
- Enquiry form submissions, for up to two years, then deleted;
- Support correspondence, for up to three years.
08Your rights
Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023, and under the GDPR where it applies to you, you may:
- Ask what personal data we hold about you and receive a copy;
- Ask us to correct anything inaccurate or incomplete;
- Ask us to erase data we no longer need, noting that invoices and accounting records must be retained for the statutory period above;
- Object to, or ask us to restrict, processing based on our legitimate interests;
- Withdraw any consent you have given, without affecting what was done beforehand;
- Nominate another person to exercise these rights on your behalf in the event of death or incapacity (DPDP Act);
- Complain to the Data Protection Board of India, or to your local supervisory authority in the EEA or UK.
Write to NiyantrakConsulting@outlook.com and we will respond within thirty days. There is no charge.
09Security
The website is served over encrypted connections. Payment data never reaches our systems. The private key used to sign licence keys is held only as an encrypted server-side secret and is never present in the website's code or in the software we distribute. Access to purchase records is restricted to the designated partners.
No system is perfectly secure. If a breach ever affected your personal data, we would notify you and the relevant authority as the law requires.
10Changes and contact
If we change this policy we will publish the new version here with a new effective date. Material changes affecting existing customers will be notified by email.
