Privacy notice
We process personal data under the Information Technology Act, 2000, the SPDI Rules, 2011, the DPDP Act, 2023, and the DPDP Rules, 2025 (as each applies on the date of processing). The next section is a standalone notice for Site forms. The rest of this Privacy group explains cookies, security, retention, sharing, and rights in more detail.
Our privacy and grievance contact is contact@bajoriaconsultancy.com.
Notice for personal data collected on this Site
This notice is meant to be read on its own. It applies when you submit a form on bajoriaconsultancy.com (enquiry, join application, or blog subscription). The same summary appears next to those forms.
Who we are. Bajoria Consultancy is the Data Fiduciary for this processing. Website: https://bajoriaconsultancy.com. Email: contact@bajoriaconsultancy.com. Phone: +91 94312 58083. Presence: Bihar and West Bengal, India. Services are delivered worldwide.
Personal data we process from Site forms (itemised):
- Enquiry form: first name, last name, phone, email, what you are looking for, budget currency and amount, company name, subject, message, and that you accepted this Policy
- Join form: the identity, contact, skills, interest, and application fields you complete, any CV file or CV link you provide, and that you accepted this Policy
- Blog subscription: email address, and that you accepted this Policy
- Security of the submission: time of submission and basic connection data needed to accept the form safely and to prevent spam or abuse
Specified purposes and the service or use enabled:
- Enquiry data — to understand your request and reply about our consultancy services
- Join data — to review your application and communicate about possible work with us
- Subscription data — to send a note when we publish on the blog
- Security logs — to operate the Site safely
Consent. Ticking the policy box and submitting the form is your free, specific, informed, unconditional, and unambiguous consent for these purposes. You may refuse by not submitting.
Withdraw consent. Email contact@bajoriaconsultancy.com from the same email (or with the same phone) you used. Sending that email is comparable in ease to ticking the box. Withdrawal does not undo processing already completed lawfully, and we may keep data where Indian law still requires it.
Your rights. You may request access to a summary of your personal data and processing, correction of inaccurate data, erasure where the data is no longer needed or where you withdraw consent and no other lawful ground applies, nomination of a person to exercise rights on your behalf in the event of death or incapacity (as the DPDP Act provides), and a grievance with us. Email contact@bajoriaconsultancy.com.
Complaint to the Board. You may complain to the Data Protection Board of India about our handling of your personal data, using the process the Board publishes.
What personal data we collect
Depending on how you use the Site, we may collect:
- Identity and contact details (name, email, phone, company name)
- Enquiry or application content (messages, skills, interest areas, portfolio or CV links)
- Files you choose to upload (such as a CV)
- Technical and security data needed to run the Site (such as browser type, device type, and IP-related logs for abuse prevention)
- Preference storage on your device (theme and language), as described under Cookies
Under the SPDI Rules, sensitive personal data or information can include passwords, financial information, health conditions, sexual orientation, medical records, biometric information, and certain other categories when collected. We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data through this Site unless you choose to share it in free-text fields or we expressly request it for a formal engagement under separate notice. Please avoid sending passwords, Aadhaar or other government ID numbers, full bank details, or health data through website forms unless we specifically request them through a secure channel.
Purpose, notice, and consent
We process personal data only for the purposes in the standalone notice above and for:
- Responding to enquiries and providing information about our services
- Reviewing join applications and related recruitment communication
- Sending blog notes where you subscribed
- Operating, securing, and improving the Site (including fraud and abuse prevention)
- Meeting legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations
Under the SPDI Rules and the DPDP Act (including Rule 3 of the DPDP Rules, 2025, as it applies):
- We give an itemised notice of the data and purpose at the form, and this page explains the same in full
- Where consent is the lawful ground, we seek free, specific, informed, unconditional, and unambiguous consent by a clear affirmative act (ticking the box and submitting)
- We do not use personal data for a purpose that is incompatible with what you were told, without a fresh lawful ground
- You may withdraw consent for future processing by emailing us; withdrawal is as easy as giving consent
We may also process data where Indian law permits or requires it without fresh consent (for example, a court order, or employment-related records after you become an engaged team member under separate terms).
Children’s data
Our services are directed at organisations and adult professionals. Under the DPDP Act, a child is a person under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly process personal data of children through this Site, we do not track children, and we do not direct the Site at children. Because we do not process children’s data, we do not rely on verifiable parental consent for this Site. If you believe a child has submitted personal data to us, contact contact@bajoriaconsultancy.com and we will delete it where the law allows.
Your rights as a Data Principal
Subject to applicable law (the DPDP Act and DPDP Rules as they apply, and the SPDI Rules while they remain in force), you may request to:
- Access a summary of personal data we hold about you and the processing activities, where the law allows
- Correct incomplete or inaccurate personal data
- Erase personal data that is no longer necessary for the stated purpose, or where you withdraw consent and no other lawful ground applies
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, with ease comparable to giving it
- Nominate a person to exercise rights on your behalf in the event of death or incapacity, as the DPDP Act provides
- Raise a grievance with us (see Grievance section) and, if you are not satisfied, complain to the Data Protection Board of India
To exercise these rights, email contact@bajoriaconsultancy.com with enough detail for us to verify your identity and respond. We will acknowledge promptly and aim to complete a verifiable request within one month, or any shorter period the law requires. We may refuse or limit a request only where the law allows (for example, a legal hold, overlapping rights of others, or inability to verify the requester).
Security safeguards and personal data breach
We use reasonable security practices and procedures appropriate to the nature of the data and our size of operations, consistent with the IT Act, the SPDI Rules, and DPDP security duties (including DPDP Rule 6 as it applies). Measures include access controls, careful handling of form submissions, encrypted transport (HTTPS), security-minded hosting, and internal need-to-know practices. We retain security and access logs as required by applicable Indian directions, including CERT-In directions where they apply to us.
No method of transmission over the internet is fully secure; you share information at your own residual risk.
If we become aware of a personal data breach, we will investigate and contain it. Once DPDP Rule 7 applies (scheduled from 13 May 2027), we will intimate each affected Data Principal and the Data Protection Board of India without delay, and we will give the Board the prescribed detailed information within seventy-two hours of becoming aware (or a longer period the Board allows on a written request). Until then, we will still notify affected people and any authority the law requires, including under the SPDI Rules and IT Act section 43A where they apply.
Sharing with service providers and disclosures
We do not sell personal information. We may share data with trusted service providers who help us run the Site or communicate with you (website hosting, form storage, and business email). Those parties act only as needed for those services, on our instructions, and as Data Processors under the DPDP framework. We currently use Cloudflare for hosting and form delivery, and a business email host for mailbox delivery.
We may also disclose information if required by Indian law, court order, government direction, or to protect rights, safety, or security of persons or systems.
Storage and cross-border transfers
Your information may be processed on systems located in India or in other countries where our service providers operate. Under the DPDP Act, transfer of personal data outside India is permitted except to a country or territory restricted by the Central Government. We will not transfer personal data to any country or territory that is prohibited by law or government notification. Where data is processed outside India, we take contractual and practical steps consistent with applicable Indian law for the purposes described in this Policy.
Cookies and similar technologies
The Site uses only what is needed to operate, stay secure, and remember your preferences. At the date of this Policy, third-party analytics and advertising tags are off. If we add them, we will update this Policy and, where the law requires, ask for consent.
- Essential storage: needed for basic function, security, and remembering theme or language on your device. If you choose a language other than English, a translation service may load to show the page in that language.
- Analytics / advertising: not in use on this Site at the date of this Policy.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain storage may affect how some parts of the Site work (for example, theme choice).
How long we keep personal data
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described above (for example, responding to an enquiry, reviewing an application, or sending blog notes you asked for), or as required by law, dispute resolution, tax, or business record-keeping — including security logs for the period Indian directions require. This follows purpose-limitation and storage-limitation under the DPDP Act and good practice under the SPDI Rules. When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it using reasonable methods.
