Sankalan At Sankalan Data Technologies (accessible at www.sankalandtech.com), the privacy of our visitors is one of our top priorities. This Privacy Policy document explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to every page on this website and to any communication you have with us through the site, email, or phone.
If you have additional questions about our Privacy Policy, please contact us at tech2dsm@gmail.com or call +91 9834178759.
Summary: We collect only what we need to run the site, communicate with you, and serve relevant ads through Google AdSense. We do not sell your personal data. You can opt out of ad personalization at any time through Google's settings.
1. Information We Collect
We collect two types of information from visitors:
1.1 Information you provide voluntarily
- Contact information: When you fill in the contact form or email us, we collect your name, email address, and phone number (if provided).
- Communications: The content of any messages, questions, or feedback you send us.
- Account data: If you sign up for a paid course or newsletter, we collect your name, email, and billing information (handled securely by our payment processor).
1.2 Information collected automatically
- Log data: Like most websites, we log every request — your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, time of visit, and pages viewed. This is standard web server behaviour.
- Cookies and similar technologies: We use cookies to remember your preferences (for example, dark-mode toggle) and to serve relevant ads through Google AdSense. See Section 4 for full details.
- Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand which pages are useful and how visitors find us. Google Analytics collects anonymized data — no personally identifying information.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To reply to your questions and provide customer support
- To deliver the tutorials, courses, or eBooks you request
- To improve the site — knowing which pages are popular helps us prioritize what to publish next
- To send occasional emails about new content or offers (only if you opt in — you can unsubscribe at any time)
- To serve personalized and non-personalized ads through Google AdSense and other advertising partners
- To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
- To comply with legal obligations
3. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for processing your data depends on what we are doing:
- Consent: When you subscribe to our newsletter or accept cookies for ads.
- Legitimate interest: When we log basic information to keep the site secure and to understand traffic patterns.
- Contract: When we process your data to deliver a paid course you purchased.
- Legal obligation: When we must retain records for tax or accounting purposes.

- Essential cookies: Needed for the site to work — for example, remembering your dark-mode preference.

- Advertising cookies: Google AdSense and other ad networks use these to serve relevant ads.
4.2 Google AdSense and the DoubleClick DART cookie
Google is one of the third-party vendors on our site. It uses cookies, specifically the DART cookie, to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
